這是什麼奇怪的世界?地球。圖片前景中的尖峰石陣是西澳大利亞南本國家公園中的奇特巖尖。尖峰石陣由古老的海貝(石灰岩)構成,這些人形大小、風景如畫的尖峰石陣是如何形成的,至今仍不得而知。 背景中,就在尖峰石陣中央的盡頭,是一輪明亮的新月。月亮周圍陰森恐怖的光芒主要是黃道十二宮的光,是太陽系中行星之間執行的塵埃粒子反射的陽光。拱形的頂部是銀河系的中心帶。背景夜空中還能看到許多著名的恆星和星雲。這幅 29 塊的特色全景圖是在 2015 年 9 月經過詳細規劃後拍攝和合成的,其中包括月球、岩石尖頂及其相應的陰影。即便如此,強烈的黃道十二宮光芒還是讓人驚喜不已。 你的天空驚喜你的生日是哪一天?
原文:What strange world is this? Earth. In the foreground of the featured image are the Pinnacles, unusual rock spires in Nambung National Park in Western Australia. Made of ancient sea shells (limestone), how these human-sized picturesque spires formed remains unknown. In the background, just past the end of the central Pinnacle, is a bright crescent Moon. The eerie glow around the Moon is mostly zodiacal light, sunlight reflected by dust grains orbiting between the planets in the Solar System. Arching across the top is the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy. Many famous stars and nebulas are also visible in the background night sky. The featured 29-panel panorama was taken and composed in 2015 September after detailed planning that involved the Moon, the rock spires, and their corresponding shadows. Even so, the strong zodiacal light was a pleasant surprise. Your Sky Surprise: What picture did APOD feature on your birthday? (post 1995)
