Moon And Jupiter
The crescent of the moon and the planet Jupiter appear close together in the sky near sunrise in Molfetta, Italy, on July 23, 2025. This event, often called a celestial ''kiss'' or ''embrace,'' describes the maximum apparent approach between two bright bodies in the Earth's sky: in this case, the thin crescent of the waning Moon and the brilliant planet Jupiter, which dominate the northeast horizon in the very early morning hours.
