A waning crescent moon is photographed at sunrise in Sangju, South Korea, on June 9, 2026. The image is captured during a period when several bright planets are appearing in a notable alignment visible after sunset. Between June 8 and June 12, Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter can be observed lining up across the western sky shortly after sunset, forming a visually striking sequence from Earth's perspective. The combination of the waning crescent moon at dawn and the evening planetary alignment highlights a week of remarkable skywatching opportunities. Clear weather conditions offer the best chance to observe and photograph these celestial events.
