ISS006-E-48523 (28 April 2003) --- A crescent moon (right) and the planet Venus were photographed by an Expedition six crewmember onboard the International Space Station (ISS). As a result of overexposure, the dark part of the moon�s terrain is visible, which is faintly lit by Earthshine (sunlight reflected from our planet onto the moon). Earth�s horizon is visible in the lower left portion of this image.
