Although the above-displayed image has been circulating as a “photograph” of “sunset at the North Pole,” it is a purely digital creation. As far as we know, it is a work titled “Hideaway,” produced by a 22-year-old German astrophysics student named Inga Nielsen using TerragenTM scenery rendering software.

Tx. I wondered about how the sun could be in the same frame as a moon showing a terrestrial eclipse.
Still beautiful. Maybe it is a scene from Space Balls v 2?
