## Caption

A frozen moonrise ❄️ ⁣
⁣
This otherworldly image taken by astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) actually shows a full Moon over Hudson Bay in Canada, where icy shorelines and frozen landscapes are seen below thin clouds.⁣
⁣
The small villages and towns along these shores in Manitoba Province receive just 6 to 7 hours of sunlight each day in December. A bit farther north, the Sun will not rise above the horizon again until January. This photo, taken on Dec. 12 around 1 p.m. local time, shows just how little sunlight reaches northern Canada during a winter day.⁣
