Comet and Earth, artwork
Comet and Earth. Artwork of a comet passing the Earth. Comets are bodies of ice and dust that enter the inner solar system from the outer solar system. As they approach the Sun, the heat boils the ice, producing a coma around the nucleus, along with a tail stretching out behind it. Comets passing near the Earth can be a spectacular sight, and have been seen as omens of doom

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "Comet and Earth" beautifully captures the awe-inspiring encounter between a comet and our planet. Comets, icy bodies of dust and ice originating from the outer solar system, make their way into the inner solar system as they approach the Sun. As this celestial wanderer draws closer to our star, the heat causes its ice to boil, creating a luminous coma around its nucleus accompanied by a magnificent tail stretching behind it. The sight of comets passing near Earth is truly spectacular, often leaving us in wonderment. Throughout history, these cosmic visitors have been regarded with both fascination and superstition. In some cultures, comets were seen as omens of doom or portents of significant events about to unfold. In this stunning illustration bathed in sunlight, we witness an intimate moment between Earth and this ethereal traveler from afar. The gibbous shape of our planet serves as a backdrop for this close encounter with the comet's icy splendor. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene created by Science Photo Library's artistic visionaries, let us marvel at the intricate dance unfolding within our vast solar system. This print reminds us that even in space's cold depths lie wonders beyond imagination - where science meets artistry to ignite curiosity about our place in the universe.
