“Milky Way over Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent” is copyrighted by Robert Fedez. 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 arches over the Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent, also known as El Castillo, in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. This impressive step-pyramid stands 30 meters tall and 55 meters wide at its base. Near an equinox, the pyramid's shadows create an illusion of a slithering viper descending its steps. This astronomical alignment was observed by the pre-Columbian Maya civilization.
