your birthday.

NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Circum-axial Leaf Trails” is copyrighted by Trudy E. Bell. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Star trails are a direct result of Earth's rotation on its axis. This image shows the apparent paths of stars as our planet spins. If you were on a merry-go-round, the leaves on a nearby tree would make similar trails against the sky as you rotated. It's a simple, elegant demonstration of our planet's constant motion.
