Nasa picture of the day Mars and Orion


This picture is the view of Mars and Orion from monument valley. It looks like a photo that was taken from high above the ground to get a perfect image of both Orion and Mars. Besides the two that are focused on, the picture shows hundreds of others stars in the night. This makes me wonder if we could see that many stars in New York if there wasn't any light pollution and how far away are all of these stars that we see in this picture.
