Craters etched by cosmic, ageless time, A starburst splits the void so sublime. The spiral's core unravels endless deep, Where newborn stars and ancient echoes sleep.
Sepia-toned digital space illustration featuring a large, heavily cratered moon in the upper right. A radiant starburst shines intensely from behind the moon's edge, casting a bright flare across the scene. Below, a smooth planetary horizon swoops over a glowing, detailed spiral galaxy with a brilliant central core, all surrounded by a dense field of twinkling stars and four-pointed lens flares.
