@iqaluit Haha, that will be great, but I have already left my hometown, and I can't see such a beautiful starry sky in the city where I am located. I must take a serious look at my beautiful hometown next time I go back again.

https://www.nasa.gov/image-article/hang-a-shining-star-upon-the-highest-bough/This new view of the “Christmas tree cluster” NGC 2264, released on Dec. 17, 2024, combines data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and optical data from astrophotographer Michael Clow’s telescope in Arizona. Chandra data is represented in red, purple, blue, and white, while optical data is in green and violet.
Located about 2,500 light-years from Earth, NGC 2264 is a cluster of young stars between one and five million years old. The stars are seen here as blue and white lights surrounded by swirls of gas—the “pine needles” of the tree—with green representing light in the visible spectrum.

Here's a great photo of the ISS by J. Mccarthy.
The reason why the ISS keeps its relative size against both the Sun and the Moon is due to a remarkable coincidence: the diameter of the Moon is 400x smaller than the diameter of the Sun, but it is also 400x closer to us!
