原文:
ght years ago, an evening sky held this lovely pairing of a young crescent Moon and brilliant Venus. Seen near the western horizon, the close conjunction and its wintry reflection were captured from Bolu, Turkey, planet Earth on February 19, 2007. In the 8 Earth years since this photograph was taken Venus has orbited the Sun almost exactly 13 times, so the Sun and Venus have now returned to the same the configuration in Earth’s sky. And since every 8 years the Moon also nearly repeats its phases for a given time of year, a very similar crescent Moon-Venus conjunction will again appear in planet Earth’s evening skies tonight. But the February 20, 2015 version of the conjunction will also include planet Mars. Much fainter Mars will wander even closer to Venus by the evening of February 21.
中文翻譯:
八年前，星空中出現了這對可愛的年輕彎月與璀璨的金星。這幅景象於2007年2月19日從土耳其的博盧捕捉到，顯示了靠近西方地平線的緊密結合和它的冬季倒影。在過去的8年裡，金星幾乎恰好繞著太陽轉動了13圈，所以現在太陽與金星在地球的天空中回到了相同的配置。由於每8年，月亮也會幾乎重複每年這個時候的相位，因此今晚地球的夜空中將再次出現一個非常相似的彎月與金星的結合。不過在2015年2月20日的版本中，還會包括火星。到2月21日的晚上，較為黯淡的火星將會與金星更靠近。
