金星回来了,现在作为一颗明亮的晨星出现在地球黎明前的天空中。9月12日,在飞往墨西哥城的航班上,我坐在靠窗的座位上,在日出前捕捉到了明亮的天体信标。金星在右上方,与一轮古老的新月分享着晨曦。从这个平流层的角度看,山峰和云彩的剪影出现在发光的东方地平线上。这个引人注目的、长而低的云库是由地球上活跃的火山popocatacemoterl持续喷发形成的。

Venus has returned, now appearing in planet Earth's predawn skies as a brilliant morning star. From a window seat on a flight to Mexico City, the bright celestial beacon was captured just before sunrise in this astronomical snapshot, taken on September 12. Venus, at the upper right, shared the early twilight with an old crescent Moon. Seen from this stratospheric perspective, mountain peaks and clouds appear in silhouette along a glowing eastern horizon. The dramatic, long, low cloud bank was created by ongoing venting from planet Earth's active volcano Popocatépetl.
