A beautiful Milky Way Perseid shower over Stonehenge with a blue UFO! Really people, don't you see it?APOD 12 August 2024 detail annotated .png
What is that blue thingy? Oh, it's Vega, of course. If you see one blue object hovering over the northern Milky Way, you can bet your boots it's Vega. So why does Vega come equipped by a pair of airplane wings? Beats me, although I think that there are smart people here who can explain.
Very nice image, but I'll leave it to the rest of you to add more comments!![:D]( "Very Happy")

..I like the picture from Nick Bull a little bit more, because the individual meteors still appear as straight lines and the stars remain as point sources and not as UFOs...
...but that's an aesthetic question and a question of the technical equipment used. Both pictures are great.
