Shuttle Plume Shadow Points to Moon
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
The shadow of a space shuttle launch plume points directly at the Moon. This rare alignment happened because the Sun, Earth, Moon, and rocket were all in position at sunset. During a full moon, the Sun and Moon are on opposite sides of the sky, allowing for the plume's long shadow to extend towards the Moon.
