The sky on
your birthday.
“Moons and Jupiter” is copyrighted by Göran Strand. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteOur Moon and Jupiter shared the sky on April 10, both near opposition, meaning they were opposite the Sun as seen from Earth. A passing cloud bank dimmed the moonlight, allowing a single exposure to capture both. You can see the familiar face of our Moon and Jupiter's four Galilean moons: Callisto, Europa, Ganymede, and Io.
