      Explanation: Venus has returned as a brilliant morning star. From a   
      window seat on a flight to Mexico City, the bright celestial beacon was   
      captured just before sunrise in this astronomical snapshot, taken on   
      September 12. Venus, at the upper right, shared the early predawn skies   
      with an old crescent Moon. Seen from this stratospheric perspective,   
      both mountain peaks and clouds appear in silhouette along a glowing   
      eastern horizon. The dramatic, long, low cloud bank was created by   
      venting from planet Earth's active volcano Popocat+¬petl.
