2012.7.11『黎明天空的连珠』#APOD同步#

上个星期，如果你在黎明出去遛狗晨练，便可享受到晨霞中的连珠奇观。图中从左至右分别为昴宿星团，木星，金星，「跟随者」毕宿五（因为它总是追随着昴宿星团），在繁星点点的背景中脱颖而出。这张照片是在南美西部的阿塔卡马沙漠拍摄的。日出前的晨光在东方的地平线上逐渐明亮。接下来的一个月，木星和金星将继续在黎明前闪耀，倾倒地球上每个角落的晨练者，虽然到了今天，这些道早安的行星们和其他两个天体已经不在一条直线上了。

Early morning dog walkers got a visual treat last week as bright stars and planets appeared to line up. Pictured above, easily visible from left to right, were the Pleiades open star cluster, Jupiter, Venus, and the "Follower" star Aldebaran, all seen before a starry background. The image was taken from the Atacama desert in western South America. The glow of the rising Sun can be seen over the eastern horizon. Jupiter and Venus will continue to dazzle pre-dawn strollers all over planet Earth for the rest of the month, although even now the morning planets are seen projected away from the line connecting their distant stellar sky mates.
