Earth at Twilight
This image of Earth shows the gradual transition from day to night, known as twilight. The Sun, illuminating the scene from the right, casts a soft, reddened light on the cloud tops. This light is filtered through the dusty lower atmosphere. A clearer, higher layer of atmosphere is visible along the day-night boundary.
