APOD is 30 years old today.
In celebration, today's picture uses past APODs as
tiles arranged to create a single pixelated image that
might remind you of one of the most
well-known and evocative
depictions of planet Earth's night sky.
In fact, this
Starry Night
consists of 1,836 individual images
contributed to APOD over the last 5 years in a mosaic of 32,232 tiles.
Today, APOD would like to offer a sincere thank you to our
contributors, volunteers, and readers.
Over the last 30 years your continuing efforts have
allowed us to enjoy, inspire, and share a discovery of the cosmos.
