A Quadruple Sky Over Great Salt Lake Credit & Copyright: Michael Wilson
Explanation: This was a sky to show the kids. All in all, three children, three planets, the Moon, a star, an airplane and a mom were all captured in one image near Great Salt Lake in Utah, USA on September 6. Minus the airplane and the quadruple on the ground, this busy quadruple coincidence sky was visible last week all over the world. The easiest object to spot is the crescent Moon, which is easily the brightest sky orb in the above image. Venus is the highest planet in the sky, with Jupiter to its right. The bright star Spica completes the quadruple just below Venus. The streak on the far right is an airplane. Mom is seated. Grandpa, appreciating the beauty of the moment, took the picture.

What a relaxing picture...I love sunsets over water...I would like to know why you chose this picture.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! I love this picture. It looks soo tranquil and calm. I remember a few summers ago I went on a family vacation to Montana, and I saw the most beautiful sunsets.They were so cool. About this picture, the people in the background look so calm, and they way there kind of like a shadow is really cool.
ReplyDeleteThis picture is amazing. I just look at it and feel relaxed. I wish I could go there!
