Yesterday, the Moon was New. But on January 9, early morning risers around planet Earth were treated to the sight of an old Moon, low in the east as the sky grew bright before dawn. Above the city of Saarburg in Rhineland-Palatinate, western Germany, this simple snapshot found the waning Moon’s sunlit crescent just before sunrise. But also never wandering far from the Sun in Earth’s sky, inner planets Venus and Mercury shared the cold morning skyview. In the foreground are the historic city’s tower and castle with ruins from the 10th century.
