A breathtaking long-exposure photograph captures the Eta Aquarids meteor shower streaking across the night sky above Reunion Island. A bright meteor flashes across the frame, its path originating from the constellation Aquarius. Comet C/2020 F8 SWAN is also visible, its pale greenish coma and tail adding to the celestial spectacle over the silhouette of a volcanic mountain range shrouded in clouds. The image showcases the speed and intensity of the Eta Aquarids, with the comet adding a dramatic element to the scene. The warm-toned sky, speckled with countless stars, completes the stunning astronomical display.
