              Milky Way and Zodiacal Light over Australian Pinnacles   
                      Image Credit & Copyright: Jingyi Zhang   
      
      Explanation: 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 a   
      topic of research. The picturesque panorama was taken in 2017   
      September. A ray of zodiacal light, sunlight reflected by dust grains   
      orbiting between the planets in the Solar System, rises from the   
      horizon near the image center. Arching across the top is the central   
      band of our Milky Way Galaxy. The planets Jupiter and Saturn, as well   
      as several famous stars are also visible in the background night sky.
