Explanation:
Volcanic
activity on the Big Island of Hawaii has increased
since this Hawaiian night skyscape was recorded earlier this year.
Recent vents and lava flows
are about 30 kilometers to
the east, the direction of the blowing smoke and steam in the
panoramic view of the Kilauea caldera with Halemaumau crater taken from
Volcanoes National Park.
Still, this year Jupiter is
bright in late spring to early summer skies.
High in the south it is easily the brightest celestial beacon
in the scene where the central bulge of the Milky Way seems to rise
above vapors and clouds.
Yellowish Antares is the bright star near the end of the
dark rivers
of dust seen toward the center of our galaxy.
Near the horizon, stars Alpha and Beta Centauri
and the compact
Southern Cross shine through the almost
too bright volcanic smoke.
