Explanation:
What if you climbed up on a rock and discovered the Universe?
You can.
Although others have noted much of it before, you can locate for yourself
stars,
planets, and even the
plane of our Milky Way Galaxy.
All you need is a dark clear sky -- the rock is optional.
If you have a camera, you can
further image faint
nebulas,
galaxies, and long filaments of
interstellar dust.
If you can
process digital images,
you can bring out faint features,
highlight specific colors, and merge foreground and background images.
In fact, an industrious astrophotographer has done all of these to create the
presented picture.
All of the component
images were taken early last month on the same night within a few meters of each
other.
The picturesque setting was Sand Beach in
Stonington,
Maine,
USA with the camera pointed south over
Penobscot Bay.
