On Saturday night, July 5th, Saturn, Mars, Regulus and the crescent Moon lined up fetchingly across the western sky. Amateur astronomer Alan Friedman, on vacation at Mooselookmeguntic Lake in Maine, photographed the alignment and calls this shot Ducks in a Row:

Two days later, the Moon has moved on, exiting stage left, but the show is not over. Saturn and Mars are rapidly converging for their closest encounter of the next 14 years; on July 10th they'll be a scant 3/4o apart. Look west after sunset in the nights ahead to see the planets in motion.

可是为什么叫做日出秀呢？

翻译过来的。。。

求链接。。。

原文标题是Sunset Sky Show

那应该是日落秀啊~~

好图哦！ 查了下“Regulus”，是狮子座α星轩辕十四。

试着翻译了一下，有俩词儿实在没把握。。。
就不贴出来误导大家了，呵呵

看标题还以为是照的落日呢。
