NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Four Towers and the Equinox Moon” is copyrighted by Javier Martinez Moran. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The first Full Moon of northern spring rises behind four distant towers in this telescopic view. Captured from 40 kilometers west of Madrid, this moonrise coincided with lunar perigee and the March equinox. The Moon's distorted shape close to the horizon is due to looking through a layered atmosphere. This creates tantalizing visible effects of atmospheric refraction.
