Welcome to the eighth edition of the Screenshot of the Week!

To start with, congratulations to the winner of the previous contest! @Riley's submission of a the view from an elite-dangerous tourist destination known simply as The View, took the first spot with 18 upvotes!

To submit a screenshot, simply post it as an answer to this question. After a few clarifications on previous competitions, we've compiled this handy list of requirements, so please take note of the following:

• One screenshot per post, and one post per person, please!
• Limited picture modifications are allowed, such as cropping, simple filters, and blurring of identifying info such as names, but not adding other images or text.
• To ensure a fair playing field, please post screenshots you've taken yourself rather than ones you found online.
• Stack Exchange’s Code of Conduct still applies - so if it would be unacceptable to post normally, it’s unacceptable here.

Also, try to avoid pictures that include spoilers. We want everyone to be able to enjoy this contest, so the less spoilers the better.

How long will the contest run?

We will accept submissions for a week, until 19:00 UTC of 2020-03-16, then have a second week-long period where only voting will be accepted. This is to give every submission, even those posted at the end of the first week, a chance to be voted on by everyone.

After the end of the second week, at 19:00 UTC of 2020-03-23, we will count upvotes only to determine the winning screenshot, which will be featured as the winner in the next Screenshot post.
