+The title text talks about another minor "superpower" that astrophotographers have which makes clouds always seem to show up in front of the night sky, however because it is entirely unconscious and interferes with their work by ruining their photos, the title text more accurately classifies it as a curse, which is why the rest of the comic describes astrophotographers having only one "actual" superpower.

-Astrophotography is the act of taking pictures of very distant (often celestial) objects, such as the Moon, Venus, and Mars. Often, the sun gets in the way of taking pictures of such objects due to light from the sun being much brighter than the light from the thing you are trying to photograph. Therefore, to be an astrophotographer, you need to be able to know where the sun will be at specific times due to the light from the sun blocking your view of the object you are trying to photograph.
