「今日天文图:Full Moon Perseids」
一年一度的英仙座流星雨在8月13日接近极大.当地球穿过周期彗星斯威夫特·塔特尔彗星留下的碎片流时,北半球的夏夜星空中就会"下起"流星雨.这张照片拍摄于黎明前,摄影师在两个多小时里进行了多次短时间曝光,拍摄到了一些最亮的英仙雨流星.这场流星雨的辐射点位于大英雄帕尔修斯的化身——英仙座中,在画面中正好位于西班牙赫罗纳的Sant Llorenc de la Muga村一座灯光明亮的中世纪塔楼后面.英仙座流星雨在中世纪就被观测到了,在天主教传统里被称为圣劳伦斯之泪,庆祝活动在每年流星雨的极大附近举行.明亮的土星也在画面的右上角闪耀,在天空中离与太阳相对的满月不远.

#NASA每日一图# 2022-08-18 APOD:【Full Moon Perseids】
The annual Perseid meteor shower was near its peak on August 13. As planet Earth crossed through streams of debris left by periodic Comet Swift-Tuttle meteors rained in northern summer night skies. But even that night's nearly Full Moon shining near the top of this composited view couldn't hide all of the popular shower's meteor streaks. The image captures some of the brightest perseid meteors in many short exposures recorded over more than two hours before the dawn. It places the shower's radiant in the heroic constellation of Perseus just behind a well-lit medieval tower in the village of Sant Llorenc de la Muga, Girona, Spain. Observed in medieval times, the Perseid meteor shower is also known in Catholic tradition as the Tears of St. Lawrence, and festivities are celebrated close to the annual peak of the meteor shower. Joining the Full Moon opposite the Sun, bright planet Saturn also shines in the frame at the upper right.

图1是在论坛里看到的某网友的猫猫，于是让我想到了图2-4：加泰罗尼亚 Sant Climent de Taüll 教堂后殿壁画中的形象。

这个形象来自于《新约·启示录》（5:6）“我又看见宝座与四活物并长老之中，有羔羊站立，像是被杀过的，有七角七眼，就是神的七灵，奉差遣往普天下去的。”看着真的会眼晕。Sant Climent de Taüll 教堂的这组壁画，创作于12世纪，非常有名，是罗马式艺术中（教堂）壁画的代表作。由于该壁画的重要性，目前已被移至巴塞罗那的加泰罗尼亚国家艺术博物馆保存展出。
