Explanation:
Welcome to the
vicennial year of the Astronomy Picture of the Day!
Perhaps a source of web consistency for some,
APOD is still here.
As during each of the 20 years of selecting images, writing text, and editing the
APOD web pages, the occasionally industrious Robert Nemiroff (left) and frequently
persistent Jerry Bonnell (right) are pictured above plotting to highlight yet another
unsuspecting image of our cosmos.
Although the featured image may appear similar to the whimsical
Vermeer composite that ran on
APOD's fifth anniversary, a perceptive eye might catch
that it has been digitally re-pixelated using many of the
over 5,000 APOD images that have
appeared over APOD's
tenure.
(Can you find any notable APOD images?)
Once again, we at APOD would like to offer a sincere thank you to our readership
for continued interest, support, and many gracious communications.
If you consider yourself a fan of APOD, you might want to consider joining the
Friends of APOD.
