The Milky Way - Maybe??

There is no explanation or location, I wish zazzle sellers would add 

as least some information on their postcards. 
I am assuming it is the Milky Way with some rock formations in front?? 
The postcard was mailed in 2026.

This flight simulator has the greatest motion range of any flight simulator in the world. When the pilots are sitting inside they have 'Out-the-Window' Graphics that are computer-generated so it is very realistic. It has also been programed to generate various weather and light conditions.

I bet the poster or what ever this postcard was printed from has some great information!  Most of it is too small to read.  I can see it comes from the National Geographic Society Magazine.

This postcard was mailed from Russia in 2019.
