Description

The capture shows a 39-hour crescent moon trying to settle down behind the dome of the Zselici Park of Stars

This combination of bright crescent and ash-gray Earthlight is an interesting sight, as if a very pale full moon is in the picture, even though the 5-second exposure makes it so bright for our shadowy celestial companion.

Of course, as soon as the image was completed, this narrow sickle was observed visually, namely by turning the telescope dome back on it.
