“Crescent Moon Meets Evening Star” is copyrighted by Luis Argerich. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteOn September 8, 2013, the slender crescent Moon met brilliant Venus in the evening sky. This close celestial pairing, known as a conjunction, was visible to skygazers around the world. From some locations in South America, the Moon actually passed in front of Venus in a lunar occultation. This two-frame mosaic, taken near Las Cañas, Uruguay, shows Venus just before and after being hidden by the Moon.
