APOD → Short

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day → a ready-to-shoot 30–60s vertical short.

Purpose

NASA publishes a stunning image with an expert explanation every day. This skill converts one APOD entry into a complete vertical short package: a hook, a tight narration script, an on-screen caption track, a shot/animation list, and a rights line — so a creator can film/edit in one sitting without misstating the science or the licensing.
