COSMIC MESSAGE

Stars from our own Milky Way Galaxy are scattered across this view. Captured on August 13 from Busko-Zdroj, Poland, it shows a bright Perseid meteor trail. This cosmic sand grain, dust from comet Swift-Tuttle, vaporized as it entered Earth's atmosphere. It streaks from lower left to upper right, near the peak of the annual meteor shower.
