COSMIC MESSAGE

Astronaut Michael Lopez-Alegria holds the Golden Snitch, celebrating a victory in the first Space Quidditch match. The image, a playful April Fools' Day post from APOD, shows the astronaut in what appears to be a space station module. It reminds us that even in space, a little humor goes a long way.
