      A night sky is shown with many stars and streaks. In the foreground at   
        the bottom are hills, a river, and the red and white streaks of car   
         lights. Please see the explanation for more detailed information.

      Explanation: What are all those streaks in the sky? A galaxy, many   
      satellite trails, and a few meteors. First, far in the distance, the   
      majestic band of our Milky Way Galaxy runs down the left. Mirroring it   
      on the right are several parallel trails of Earth-orbiting Starlink   
      satellites. Many fainter satellite trails also crisscross the image.   
      The two short and bright streaks are meteors CÇö likely members of the   
      annual Eta Aquariids meteor shower. The planet Venus shines on the   
      lower right. Venus and the satellites shine by reflected sunlight. The   
      featured picture is a composite of exposures all taken in a few hours   
      on May 4 over the Limay River in Argentina.
