This image was taken on May 11, 2024 near Malad City, Idaho. A tree (bottom right) and its branches are silhouetted against the dramatic night sky, which is red, purple and green thanks to the aurora. Streaks of light shimmer, making the aurora look like the folds in a curtain (middle left). A road winds toward the mountainous horizon (bottom middle), and the back of a car appears (bottom right)—the International Space Station streaks in white (middle top) across the sky, which is dotted with white stars.
