NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Planet Parade over Sydney Opera House” is copyrighted by Prasun Agrawal. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The world is waking up to a picturesque planet parade. Just before dawn, the eastern skies over much of planet Earth are decorated by a notable line of familiar planets. In much of Earth's northern hemisphere, this line of planets appears most nearly horizontal. In much of Earth's southern hemisphere, the line appears more nearly vertical. Pictured over the Sydney Opera House in southern Australia, the planet line was captured nearly vertical about five days ago.
