COSMIC MESSAGE

There's an interesting sky to see if you wake up before the Sun. Lined up toward the eastern horizon are four planets in a row. The planets are so bright they can even be seen from the bright sky inside a city. The featured image was taken from New York City, USA, with the foreground highlighted by the RFK (Triborough) Bridge. Pictured, the planets are, left to right, Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and Saturn.
