“Matterhorn, Moon, and Meteor” is copyrighted by Stephane Vetter. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Matterhorn, familiar to mountaineers, points to an eclipsed Moon and a meteor streaking by. Captured from Zermatt, Switzerland, on a frigid January morning, different exposures reveal the Moon's dim red glow, fully immersed in Earth's shadow. Above the famous peak, a meteor adds to the rare alignment.
