COSMIC MESSAGE

This image captures a new moon setting over Taiwan, with the Sun's light creating a red glow. The unilluminated half of the moon is masked by Earth's sunset. Only a thin crescent of the new moon is visible, tracing a bright curving line. It took the alignment of three worlds, Earth, Moon, and Sun, to create this view.
