Explanation: What are all those streaks in the sky? A galaxy, many
satellite trails, and a few meteors. First, far in the distance, the
majestic band of our Milky Way Galaxy runs down the left. Mirroring it
on the right are several parallel trails of Earth-orbiting Starlink
satellites. Many fainter satellite trails also crisscross the image.
The two short and bright streaks are meteors CÇö likely members of the
annual Eta Aquariids meteor shower. The planet Venus shines on the
lower right. Venus and the satellites shine by reflected sunlight. The
featured picture is a composite of exposures all taken in a few hours
on May 4 over the Limay River in Argentina.
