      Explanation: Lights play around the horizon of this snowy little planet   
      as it drifts through a starry night sky. Of course the little planet is   
      actually planet Earth. Recorded on August 21, the digitally warped,   
      nadir centered panorama covers nearly 360x180 degrees outside the   
      Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, Antarctica. The southernmost   
      research outpost is near the horizon at the top where the light of dawn   
      is approaching after nearly six months of darkness. Along the bottom is   
      the ceremonial pole marker surrounded by the 12 flags of the original   
      signatories of the Antarctic treaty, with a wild display of the aurora   
      australis above.
