EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken by Yasser Al-Zayyat from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we witness the awe-inspiring spectacle of Kuwaitis observing the "supermoon" phenomenon in Kuwait City on November 14,2016. The moon, at its closest position to Earth since 1948, shines brightly and illuminates the night sky like never before in nearly 69 years. This extraordinary astronomical event known as a supermoon occurs when our celestial neighbor is at its closest proximity to our planet. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be mesmerized by the sheer brilliance and magnificence of the full moon captured against the backdrop of Kuwait's urban landscape. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of nature and human civilization coexisting harmoniously. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling city life, there are moments when people pause to marvel at natural wonders that transcend borders and cultures. Al-Zayyat's illustration not only immortalizes this rare occurrence but also evokes a sense of wonderment within us. We find ourselves contemplating our place in the vast universe while appreciating how such cosmic events bring communities together in shared fascination. As we delve into this photograph, let it serve as a testament to humanity's enduring curiosity about space and our innate desire to connect with something larger than ourselves.
