Explanation:
Fighting clouds and the glow of city lights,
a young Moon shines over the western horizon of
Mongolia's
capital Ulaan-Baatar.
The thin sunlit crescent is 1.5 days old and strongly over exposed in this
image taken on March 10.
The night side of
the moon is also visible due to
Earthshine - sunlight reflected from the Earth
to the Moon.
Just below
the Moon,
bright Saturn shines through the clouds.
Early morning risers can see the Moon near Saturn
this week.
In fact, from North America the Moon can be seen
to pass in front of the ringed planet
on Thursday morning, September 18th.
