NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Zodiacal Road” is copyrighted by Ruslan Merzlyakov (RMS Photography). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

That strange light down the road is zodiacal light, dust orbiting the Sun. This band of sun-reflecting dust appears prominently just after sunset or before sunrise. The dust originates mostly from faint Jupiter-family comets. It slowly spirals into the Sun, creating this glowing band in the sky.
