“A Cosmic Triangle” is copyrighted by Scott Aspinall. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Moon, Venus, and the Pleiades star cluster formed a cosmic triangle in the sky. The crescent Moon was setting on the left, while Venus, the brightest planet, was setting on the right. High above them, much farther away, was the Pleiades. This alignment offered a striking view just after sunset.
