Summary
| Description |
Afrikaans: Die kwynende skemergloed van die ondergaande son met stede wat glinsterend meeding met verskynende sterre word hier uit die Internasionale Ruimtestasie betrag. NASA-ruimtevaarder Terry Verts het hierdie aanskoulike uitsig by die volgende twiet ingesluit: "Sien julle daardie ligtrosse in die aandhemel? (middel links en regs) Hulle is die Magellaanse Wolke, 'n duplo dwergsterrestelsels wat uit die Suidelike Halfrond sigbaar is."
English: A dying sun turns the Earth gold with cities sparkling to match the stars that spread out from the International Space Station. NASA astronaut Terry Verts tweeted this wondrous image with the attached comment about the stars: "See those light clusters? (center sky left and right) They are Magellanic clouds, a duo of dwarf galaxies seen from the southern hemisphere". |
