The sky on
your birthday.
“Planet Line over New York Bridge” is copyrighted by Stan Honda. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThere'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.
