COSMIC MESSAGE

A bright meteor streaks across the sky above the medieval Albrechtsberg castle in Austria. This meteor is part of the annual Perseid meteor shower, which occurs when Earth passes through debris left by Comet Swift-Tuttle. Its trail points back toward the constellation Perseus, the radiant of the shower. The constellations Aquarius, Aquila, and Delphinus are also visible in the night sky.
