## Caption

This pic is UNREAL... except it’s absolutely real. 

Astrophotographer cosmic_background took 1.7 million photos of the sun over six days to capture this shot of UA 2460 flying from IAH to LAX, a photo he calls one of the luckiest of his career. Lucky for us, we get to share it with you on National Aviation Day!
