Thanks - I pulled the first one I saw and it was already framed up. I was posting mostly to show anyone looking at this in the future that if you rotate like 130 degrees, it shows outlines we're familiar with from looking at maps.

Also, totally wild this is a moonshine image, with city lights across Africa visible, and the aurora australis in there.
