Explanation:
Planets, stars, nebulas and a galaxy -- this impressive image has them all.
Closest to home are the two planets
Mars (right) and
Saturn (center),
visible as the two bright orange spots in the upper half of the
featured image.
On the central right are the
colorful Rho Ophiuchus star clouds
featuring the bright orange star
Antares lined up below Mars.
These interstellar clouds contain both red
emission nebulas and blue
reflection nebulas.
At the top right of the image is the
Blue Horsehead reflection nebula.
On the lower left are many dark
absorption nebulas
that extend from the
central band of our
Milky Way Galaxy.
The featured deep composite was composed of
multiple deep exposures taken last month from
Brazil.
Although you
need a telescope to see the nebulosities, Saturn and Mars will
remain
visible to the
unaided eye
this month toward the east, just after sunset.
