In this perfect picture of the moon at the night, you can clearly see the Moon and Venus shining bright. Not to also mention the beautiful reflective surface that creates a rather nice and enjoyable picture.

Apod 3.3

This is photograph of Jupiter, with some significant points pointed out. Jupiter is a gaseous planet, with very little density. More than a 100x larger than the Earth, however almost being 4x as less dense due to the gasses. The colored points on the picture are moons orbiting the planet. Some being almost the size of earth and some being the size of it's moon. Jupiter is a fascinating planet and I can't wait to learn more about it's interesting facts and details!!!
