This is the surface of a comet! Dust is swirling around the surface of Comet 67/P -- captured in 2016 by ESA's Rosetta spacecraft, processing by Jacint Roger Perez.
Still one of the most remarkable scenes in space exploration.

@coreyspowell Imagine standing there (in a space suit, of course) and looking up at that.
Although, from what I've heard, wiggling your toes on that comet might be enough to send you flying.
