Astrophotographer Captures Skydiver 'Falling Past Sun' in Stunning Illusion

Imagine looking at a toy car and the Moon at the same time.

If you hold the toy car very close to your face, it can look like it's right next to the Moon, even though the Moon is super far away!

This photographer did something similar.

He took a picture of the Sun, which is extremely far away.

Then, a friend jumped out of an airplane.

The photographer carefully lined up his camera so that the skydiver looked like he was falling right in front of the Sun.

But really, the skydiver was much closer to the camera than the Sun.

It took a lot of planning and work to get the perfect shot, and the result looks like a scene from a movie, but it's a clever trick of distance and perspective.

The photographer has also taken other amazing pictures of space objects, like the International Space Station, in front of the Sun.
