Explanation:
Moonsets are not often quite as exciting as this one. But amateur astronomer
Marc-Andre Besel was impressed by the brilliant lighting displays that joined
the first quarter Moon and stars of the constellation Scorpius in western
skies. On August 22, 2004, his view looked across the Gulf of Mexico from Anna
Maria Island, Florida, USA, a region that would experience even more stormy
weather in the coming days. The alluring digital image is a time exposure, by
chance capturing the details of a brief flash of lightning along with an
overexposed Moon and dramatic cloud formations. In fact, the exposure is long
enough to show the background stars as short streaks or trails. The bright
yellowish star trail, just above and right of the lightning flash, is red giant
star Antares.
