That's no comet. Below the Pleiades star cluster is actually a planet: Mercury. Long exposures of our Solar System's innermost planet may reveal something unexpected: a tail. Mercury's thin atmosphere contains small amounts of sodium that glow when excited by light from the Sun. Sunlight also liberates these atoms from Mercury's surface and pushes them away. The yellow glow from sodium, in particular, is relatively bright. Pictured, Mercury and its sodium tail are visible in a deep image taken last week from La Palma, Spain through a filter that primarily transmits yellow light emitted by sodium. First predicted in the 1980s, Mercury's tail was first discovered in 2001. Many tail details were revealed in multiple observations by NASA's robotic MESSENGER spacecraft that orbited Mercury between 2011 and 2015. Tails, of course, are usually associated with comets.

Julleuchter ( "Yule lantern") or Turmleuchter ("tower lantern") are modern terms used to describe a type of earthenware candle holder manufactured by the SS for its members and their families, the design of the lantern was taken from an artefact found in an ethnographic museum in Stockholm, it was chosen becouse of the supposed Hagal rune (the six-spoked window at its base), the goal of this action was in tune with the spirit of the SS which wanted to revive and promote a forgotten pre-Christian pagan tradition and ideas among younger German generations.
