这是一幅令人兴奋的景色。从阿尔卑斯山的奇尔甘特山上,你不仅可以看到附近的城镇和遥远的蒂洛尔山峰,而且在天气允许的情况下,还可以看到星星、星云和银河系。然而,让今晚艰苦的攀登变得值得的是另一个高峰——2018年英仙座流星雨的高峰。正如人们所希望的那样,分散的云层使人们得以欣赏到风景如画的天空,其中包括许多微弱的流星,同时一台精心定位的相机进行了一系列曝光。突然,一颗令人激动的流星——明亮而多彩的——在几乎垂直的银河带旁边划了下来。幸运的是,摄像机也捕捉到了它。因此,这一系列的新照片很快就被拍了出来,其中一位天文观测者在附近的山峰上摆姿势。后来,所有的图像都进行了数字组合。

Now this was a view with a thrill. From Mount Tschirgant in the Alps, you can see not only nearby towns and distant Tyrolean peaks, but also, weather permitting, stars, nebulas, and the band of the Milky Way Galaxy. What made the arduous climb worthwhile this night, though, was another peak -- the peak of the 2018 Perseids Meteor Shower. As hoped, dispersing clouds allowed a picturesque sky-gazing session that included many faint meteors, all while a carefully positioned camera took a series of exposures. Suddenly, a thrilling meteor -- bright and colorful -- slashed down right next to the nearly vertical band of the Milky Way. As luck would have it, the camera caught it too. Therefore, a new image in the series was quickly taken with one of the sky-gazers posing on the nearby peak. Later, all of the images were digitally combined.
