Composite image of two bright Perseid meteors over the moonlit landscape of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, Canada on the night of August 12, 2017. The waning gibbous Moon is off frame at right providing the illumination. Smoke in the air from forest fires provides the banding and haze in the sky. A faint aurora colours the horizon yellow-green. The meteors point back to the radiant point in Perseus. The Double Cluster is at centre; M31, the Andromeda Galaxy, is at right. Capella is low above the northeast horizon. Polaris is just above the upper meteor. | |
