NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Meteor Misses Galaxy” is copyrighted by Aman Chokshi. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

This photo captures a meteor streaking across Earth's atmosphere, with the Triangulum Galaxy, M33, in the background. The galaxy is three million light-years away, while the meteor is only a fraction of a light-second from us. The meteor is a tiny grain of rock, much smaller than the galaxy. Even so, it makes for a dramatic cosmic juxtaposition.
