/apod
/apod [date]
Shows NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) — a different space image or photo every day, with an expert-written explanation.
Usage: /apod for today’s picture, /apod date: 2024-07-20
for a specific past date (format: YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. the Moon
landing anniversary), or /apod date: random for a surprise
pick from anywhere in APOD’s full archive back to its very
first entry on June 16, 1995.
Occasionally NASA’s picture of the day is a video instead of an image — this can’t be played directly in Discord, so you’ll get a clickable link and a thumbnail (if NASA provided one) instead.
