The colored illustration transports us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the wonders of astronomy during that era.

With speeds reaching an astonishing 72 kilometers per second, these meteors leave behind trails of awe-inspiring beauty. The artwork not only captures the physical essence of meteors but also serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with the heavens throughout history. It symbolizes our enduring curiosity about the mysteries beyond our planet and reminds us of our connection to the vast universe surrounding us.
