COSMIC MESSAGE
On December 13, several wonders appeared in the northern sky. Blue Sirius, the brightest star, sits just above a hill. Above Sirius and to the right of Orion's belt is the red Orion Nebula, a famous star-forming region. A yellow meteor streaks below the Orion Nebula, though it's moving in the wrong direction to be from the Geminids shower.
