“Milky Way above Atacama Salt Lagoon” is copyrighted by Alex Tudorica (AIfA, U. Bonn). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Milky Way, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, and a serene reflecting pool combine in this panorama from the Salar de Atacama salt flat in northern Chile. Laguna Cejar, a salty lagoon, reflects the night sky. The astrophotographer's fiancée is visible on the left, capturing the same scene. This 12-image mosaic was taken last month.
