NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“North Celestial Tree” is copyrighted by Jeff Dai. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

This long-exposure photograph shows star trails arcing around the North Celestial Pole, marked by Polaris, the North Star. The arcs are a result of Earth's rotation on its axis. An ancient tree in China's Yiwu Desert Poplar Forests appears to reach up towards the pole, making a striking foreground.
