Sun near horizon over Peru, twilight spreading

The Sun sits just above the western horizon over Peru, casting long shadows and marking the transition from day to night across the continent. This twilight phase signals the approach of darkness in the southern hemisphere.

Mid-level cloud formations dominate the atmospheric view, with no signs of severe weather or lightning activity. The jet stream's influence is subtle but present in the cloud banding patterns.

Aurora activity remains low, with no visible displays in the night sky. The Moon phase is waxing crescent, appearing as a thin sliver above the eastern horizon. Satellite traffic is sparse in the lower orbits.
