“Cabin under the Stars” is copyrighted by Clear Skies. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteA remote cabin and an old wooden sled rest under a dark, star-filled sky in Tanndalen, Sweden. The pale band of the Milky Way sweeps through the scene. The bright star Rigel, at the foot of Orion, shines above the sled's handrail. Capella, the brightest star in Auriga, is also visible, adding to the serene view of the winter night sky.
