7月11日，在地球上的刚果民主共和国卢阿拉巴省，以罗马爱神命名的金星和战神同名的火星在月光下相聚在一起。这张照片拍摄于日落后不久的西方黄昏天空，同时也记录了地球的光芒照亮了年轻的新月黑暗的表面。当然，月球已经继续前进了。金星作为一颗晚星仍然在西方闪耀，是地球天空中第三亮的天体，仅次于太阳和月亮。这张照片是在明亮的金星上方看到的，火星离这颗明亮的行星更近了，到7月13日，可以看到的距离只有一个月球的宽度。从那以后，火星在暮色中慢慢地远离了明亮得多的金星，但两者都在向明亮的轩辕六靠拢。狮子座的阿尔法星，轩辕十四位于这张照片的顶部，它期待着在未来几天的黄昏天空中金星和火星的来访。
查看原文解释
Venus, named for the Roman goddess of love, and Mars, the war god's namesake, come together by moonlight in this serene skyview, recorded on July 11 from Lualaba province, Democratic Republic of Congo, planet Earth. Taken in the western twilight sky shortly after sunset the exposure also records earthshine illuminating the otherwise dark surface of the young crescent Moon. Of course the Moon has moved on. Venus still shines in the west though as the evening star, third brightest object in Earth's sky, after the Sun and the Moon itself. Seen here above a brilliant Venus, Mars moved even closer to the brighter planet and by July 13 could be seen only about a Moon's width away. Mars has since slowly wandered away from much brighter Venus in the twilight, but both are sliding toward bright star Regulus. Alpha star of the constellation Leo, Regulus lies off the top of this frame and anticipates a visit from Venus and then Mars in twilight skies of the coming days.
