I haven't done one of these in a long time, but I saw this image on Instagram and wanted to share it: Jupiter peeking from behind a crescent moon.
If you really zoom in you can see two of its moons, Io (on the left) and Ganymede (on the right.) It's startling, to me anyway, how distant the moons are from the planet. (Of course, our moon is also surprisingly far from Earth when the two of them are photographed from space, and I'm still astonished every time I see it.)
