Description
Atacama Desert at night, Chile. Panoramic photograph of the night sky showing: the Milky Way galaxy (arching across the central portion) and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (upper right). At far right a silver arc streaks across the sky. This arc is actually composed of two closely-spaced lines and caused by sunlight bouncing off the antennae of two Iridium communication satellites currently orbiting the Earth.
