your birthday.

NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Dark Nebulas across Taurus” is copyrighted by Oliver Czernetz - Data: Digitized Sky Survey (POSS-II). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Dark dust in the constellation of Taurus creates a serene beauty, absorbing light rather than emitting it. These filaments are found between the Pleiades star cluster and the California Nebula. Bright blue stars reflect off the brown dust, while others appear red as their light barely penetrates the dense columns of cosmic dust.
