Americans Defeat Russians in First Space Quidditch Match
Astronaut Michael Lopez-Alegria appears to be holding a Golden Snitch, but this image is an April Fool's joke from APOD. In reality, Lopez-Alegria was on the International Space Station. The image is a playful nod to the popular fictional sport of Quidditch, set against the backdrop of real space exploration.
