Andreo (Deep Sky Colors)
Explanation:
Over 100 telescopic image
panels in this stunning vertical mosaic span
about 50 degrees
across
the night sky.
They follow part of the
Great Rift, the
dark river
of dust and molecular gas that stretches
along the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy.
Start at top center and you can follow the
galactic
equator down through brighter stars in constellations Aquila,
Serpens Cauda, and Scutum.
At the bottom is Sagittarius near the center of the Milky Way.
Along the way you'll encounter many obscuring
dark
nebulae hundreds of light-years distant flanked by bands of
Milky Way starlight, and the telltale reddish glow of starforming regions.
Notable Messier objects
include The Eagle (M16) and Omega (M17)
nebulae, the Sagittarius Star Cloud (M24), the beautiful Trifid (M20)
and the deep Lagoon (M8).
