Explanation: Made with a telescope shaded from bright sunlight by an umbrella, on April 5 a well-planned video captured a crescent Venus shining in clear daytime skies from Shoreline, Washington, USA at 11:57AM Pacific Time. It also caught the International Space Station in this single video frame. In close conjunction with the bright planet, the faint outline of the orbital outpost seen at a range of about 400 kilometers appears to be similar in size to the slender planetary crescent. Of course the ISS is much smaller than Venus. Now appearing as planet Earth's brilliant morning star and climbing above the eastern horizon in predawn skies, inner planet Venus was nearly 45 million kilometers from Shoreline.

The ISS looks like it is fading out of existence.
It’s original time line must have been disrupted.

That Truly Fascinates Me.

Man reaches out For the Heavens
Vainly as The Tower of Babylon
Brought Confusion.
Venus is the third brightest object in the sky.
