Incredibly, KELT-9b—the hottest exoplanet ever discovered—is hotter than many stars. A tidally locked, searing inferno, where dayside temps can reach a staggering 7,800 °F (4,315 °C). That’s hot enough for molecules to be ripped apart, only to form again on the cooler nightside.

Well I didn’t have this on the 2023 bingo card but here we are.
My first ever Aurora Australis shot!!!!
This was shot at Mount Dale & yes I completely am overwhelmed at the significance of the name - just an hour east of my house.
