What a night! After a stormy day the sky becomes crystal clear as the night falls on Yellowstone National Park, home to one of the Earth supervolcanoes. Here the Milky Way and bright star Antares at the heart of Scorpion appear above Mammoth hot springs. Those of you with larger screens may also notice a few red nebula in the galactic core. Yellowstone is where you feel the true power of nature in every angle. In 1872 it became the first US National Park and the first one in the world, starting a new movement to respect nature as the source, not a resource; the issue we are still dealing with today.
