A waning crescent Moon, lost in haze, rises over the Wasatch Mountains near Salt Lake City on Feb. 27, 2019. The planet Jupiter can be seen nearby, along with three of its largest moons. From left to right, they are: Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. Jupiter’s moon Io is also included within the frame, but at this scale is lost in the giant planet’s glare.
