Explanation:
What happened to this ship?
It was carried aground by a giant storm that struck the coast of
Argentina in 2002.
The pictured abandoned boat, dubbed
Naufragio del Chubasco,
wrecked near the nearly abandoned town of
Cabo Raso (population:
1).
The rusting ship
provides a picturesque but perhaps creepy foreground for the beautiful sky above.
This sky is crowned by the grand arch of our
Milky Way and features galaxies including the
Large and
Small Magellanic Clouds, stars including
Canopus and
Altair, planets including
Mars and
Neptune,
and nebulas including the
Lagoon,
Carina, and the
Coal Sack.
The mosaic was composed from over 80 images taken in early September.
A 360-degree interactive panoramic version of this image is also available.
The adventurous astrophotographer reports that the creepiest part of taking this
picture was not the abandoned ship, but the unusual prevalence of black and hairy
caterpillars.
