“Moon Setting Behind Teide Volcano” is copyrighted by El Cielo de Canarias. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThese people are not in danger. The Moon, far in the distance, appears large because it is being photographed through a telescopic lens. The Earth's spin causes the Moon to slowly disappear behind Mount Teide, a volcano in the Canary Islands. The people in the foreground are 16 kilometers away, and many are facing the camera because they are watching the Sun rise behind the photographer.
