COSMIC MESSAGE

Last Sunday, the young crescent Moon hung low near the western horizon at sunset. With strong earthshine, it was joined by Saturn for a beautiful conjunction. This quiet nightscape was captured from a hill near Veszprem, Hungary, framing the Moon, Saturn, a mother, and her daughter.
