Shahdad Kalut, And Night
The Milky Way Galaxy appears over a Kalut in the Shahdad Kalut Desert near Kerman, Iran, on May 23, 2025, at midnight. The word ''Kalut'' refers to a natural landform created by wind erosion in arid desert environments. Kaluts are large ridge-like or tower-shaped formations made from compacted sand and soil, sculpted over time by strong desert winds. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto)
