Explanation: After local midnight on July 14 comet NEOWISE was still above the horizon for Goldenrod, Alberta, Canada, just north of Calgary, planet Earth. In this snapshot it makes for an awesome night with dancing displays of the northern lights. The long-tailed comet and auroral displays are beautiful apparitions in the north these days. Both show the influence of spaceweather and the wind from the Sun. Skygazers have widely welcomed the visitor from the Oort cloud, though C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) is in an orbit that is now taking it out of the inner Solar System.

说明:7月14日的子夜之后,从地球·加拿大·亚伯达省·卡加利市北方的黄花村看出去,NEOWISE彗星仍然悬在地平线的上空。此外,照片里的这片美丽星空,还有摇曳的北极光。在这阵日子的北极区里,曳着长尾的彗星和极光活动,是天空中美丽的光影秀。而这二种现象,都是太空天气和太阳风影响力的视觉见证。身为众多观星者观测焦点的NEOWISE彗星(C/2020 F3),是个来自欧特云的访客,它目前沿着特定的轨道踏上告别内太阳系的旅程。
