NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Moon Mountains Magnified during Ring of Fire Eclipse” is copyrighted by Wang Letian (Eyes at Night). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

These dark streaks in the composite image of a solar eclipse are reversed shadows of lunar mountains. The Moon was too far from Earth to completely block the Sun, creating a 'ring of fire.' Light streamed around the Moon's edges and through lunar valleys. The center image was captured from Xiamen, China.
