“Sea and Sky Glows over the Oregon Coast” is copyrighted by Rudy Montoya. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteBioluminescence lights up the surf and sand in this scene captured at Meyer's Creek Beach in Oregon. Volcanic stacks dot the foreground sea, while a thin fog layer scatters light on the horizon. Car headlights on the Oregon Coast Highway create the rays of light spreading from the left horizon. An orange light on the right horizon emanates from a fishing boat. Far above, the central band of the Milky Way is visible.
