Mid-Air Meteor and Milky Way Explanation: On September 24, a late evening commercial flight from Singapore to Australia offered stratospheric views of the southern hemisphere's night sky, if you chose a window seat. In fact, a well-planned seating choice with a window facing toward the Milky Way allowed the set up of a sensitive digital camera on a tripod mount to record thegalaxy's central bulge in a series of 10 second long exposures. By chance, one of the exposures caught this bright fireball meteor in the starry frame. Reflected along the wing of the A380 aircraft, the brilliant greenish streak is also internally reflected in the double layer window, producing a fainter parallel to the original meteor track. In the southern sky Jupiter is the bright source beneath the galactic bulge and seen next to a green beacon, just off the wing tip. 空中的流星和银河 9月24日，一架从新加坡飞往澳大利亚的深夜航班上，如果你选择了靠窗的座位，便能看到南半球夜空中的平流层景象。挑一个靠窗座位，透过机窗使用数码相机和三脚架，便能拍摄出一系列银河系中心的影像。每张曝光10秒，其中一幅照片无意间捕捉到了星空中这颗明亮的火流星。明亮绿色流星尾迹反射到了A380飞机的机翼上，与原始的流星轨迹相平行。南天中的木星是银河隆起区下方的明亮光源，它就在飞机翼尖上的绿色灯塔旁边。 高清原图地址： https://apod./apod/image/1910/MWBolideEricWagner2400.jpg 近期文章： Astronomy Picture of the Day——NGC 7714：星系碰撞后发生的星暴 Astronomy Picture of the Day——精灵闪电的高清影像 Astronomy Picture of the Day——巴西上空的猎户座 NASA 微店 |
