APOD 4.8 : The Last APOD

This is unfortunately the last APOD ....but it is by fa my favorite. This was a picture taken on top of mount Mauna Kea. Towards the bottom horizon of the picture is the clouds. Rocks and plants are at the bottom of the picture showing the beauty of Hawaii. Mauna Loa is off in the distance. A green glow from excited molecules from the volcano can be seen in the distance. The milky way also is shown horizontally.
