Good morning, Rallypoint. Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) is titled "The Moon and Jupiter over the Alps." This conjunction between the Moon and Jupiter (just left and below the Moon) occurred about three weeks ago at sunset. Saturn is close to the upper left corner of the image. The picturesque mountains in the distance are Tre Cime di Lavaredo (Three Peaks of Lavaredo), a UNESCO World Heritage Site and three of the best known mountain peaks in Italy. The entire scene was captured on a single 8-second exposure.
FYI: I've started linking to the actual picture today (not the APOD home page). That is why the page header/banner is different. This will allow you to visit the September 2nd and subsequent APODs on a later date if you wish.

Night Sky Timelapse Planets and the Milky Way over Swiss Mountains
Calm down and relax your mind for a short break with 2 minutes of Timelapse clips setting of the Moon and Venus behind the Mythen Mountains in central Switze...
Good Monday "Labor Day" Morning Maj William W. 'Bill' Price and thank you for the APOD Moon & Jupiter over the Alps! Although this APOD does not include a specific reference to a cosmic body other the a few words, I did find a magnificent short video clip of the "Night Sky Timelapse Planets and the Milky Way over Swiss Mountains" It is quite fascinating and provides a great scene of a number of cosmic entities in a timelapse of our celestial neighbors... in the same general setting as your APOD! I believe your followers will enjoy it! https://youtu.be/PnMD2OxhGTU
