Two large galaxies are pictured. On the left is a distorted spiral galaxy, while on the right is a relatively featureless yellow disk galaxy. Together, these galaxies may look, to some, like a pair of eyes.

The sun sets in the distance at the horizon end of a long road over open country. The sunset is very orange, as is the surrounding sky. Telephone poles line the right side of the road.

A comet is pictured with a really long and wavy ion tail. The front of the comet -- its coma -- appears to be a spiral. The coma is green, the tail is faint blue, and part of the swirl is red.

beautiful #APOD 🤩
Brings me back to 2022 with a similar view of the Teide, but LaPalma POV. In german you'd call this feeling 'Fernweh' I have looking at these images 🤩 (opposite of homesick)

View of the Teide on Tenerife, just before the sun was setting (hence the shadow of La Palma's 'Caldera' in foreground)

Several images of a full moon setting are superposed. The moon images are nearly white near the top, but turn orange and then are covered by low clouds near the horizon. Unusually, the setting moon images line up almost vertically. In the foreground is a beach with waves illuminated by blue-glowing plankton.
