Confirm/Denny the veracity of this? It looks amazing, but I've been fooled by too much AI to believe anything anymore.

Just because digitaltrends on whatever social media platform says in their post that the image is from NASA doesn't mean it actually is.
Fair point. After digging around I'm not finding that image on the NASA website, so it could very well be fake
It's a chunk of this: https://www.eso.org/public/images/eso1242a/
It's not NASA and not the night sky on Mars, let alone what you'd see. It's not enough to say "don't believe what you see in Instagram reels", you should actively disbelieve what you see, especially since Facebook doesn't give a shit about misinformation. They'd rather have engagement metrics.
I viscerally hate how gullible I am.
My wife's always, "That's probably not true," and I'm believing EVERYTHING.
Grrrr.
