    Two U.S. Air Force personnel in ABU (Airman Battle Uniform) camouflage are standing on a flight line, looking upward while wearing hearing protection and eye protection. They appear to be conducting aircraft maintenance or engine run-up monitoring duties beside a dark military jet aircraft, likely an F-15. One airman holds a radio/communication device and both are wearing protective gear appropriate for flight line operations.

    Members of Team Seymour use special eclipse glasses to view a solar eclipse, Aug. 21, 2017, at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North Carolina. During the short time when the moon completely obscures the sun, is it safe to look directly at the event. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Kenneth Boyton)

    GALLERY

    A nighttime sky photograph showing the moon partially obscured by thick, dramatic cloud cover. The moon's bright light illuminates the surrounding clouds from behind, creating a luminous halo effect with warm golden and cool blue tones. Only a small crescent or partial disc of the moon is directly visible through a gap in the clouds.
    A military aircraft maintainer or ground crew member in navy blue coveralls stands on an airfield tarmac, looking upward while shielding their eyes with one hand. They are holding yellow hearing protection (ear muffs) in their other hand, with a red rag tucked into their waistband. In the background, a dark military jet aircraft (likely an F-15) is visible inside a large hangar structure with scaffolding.
    A person wearing a light-colored shirt and sunglasses is looking upward at a dark military aircraft housed under a large open-sided canopy structure. The aircraft appears to be a stealth or advanced jet, visible from its underside with landing gear deployed. The setting appears to be a military airfield or air base.
    Two U.S. Air Force personnel in ABU (Airman Battle Uniform) camouflage are standing on a flight line, looking upward while wearing hearing protection and eye protection. They appear to be conducting aircraft maintenance or engine run-up monitoring duties beside a dark military jet aircraft, likely an F-15. One airman holds a radio/communication device and both are wearing protective gear appropriate for flight line operations.
    A female military service member in camouflage uniform stands on a flight line or aircraft maintenance ramp, looking upward with an expression suggesting laughter or reaction to sunlight. She is wearing blue nitrile gloves and appears to be in a work environment surrounded by ground support equipment. The setting appears to be a military air base with hardened aircraft shelters visible in the background.
    The image shows a bright point light source against a completely black background, producing a starburst diffraction pattern with multiple radiating spikes. Lens flare artifacts are visible, including colorful chromatic aberration arcs in yellow-green and blue-green tones extending to the upper right of the light source. This is a photographic optical phenomenon caused by a bright light interacting with the camera lens aperture blades.
