The Moon seen backlit by the Sun during the solar eclipse period on 7 April CEST, is photographed by one of the cameras on the European Service Module’s solar array wings. Orion is visible in the foreground on the left. Earth is reflecting sunlight at the left edge of the Moon, which is slightly brighter than the rest of the disk. The bright spot visible just below the Moon’s bottom right edge is Saturn. Beyond that, the bright spot at the right edge of the image is Mars.
