Explanation:
A glow from the summit of
Mount
Etna,
famous active stratovolcano of planet Earth,
stands out along the horizon in this
mountain
and night
skyscape.
Bands of diffuse light from
congeries
of innumerable stars
along the Milky Way galaxy stretch across the sky above.
In silhouette, the Milky Way's massive dust clouds are clumped along
the galactic plane.
But also familiar to northern skygazers are bright
stars Deneb, Vega, and Altair,
the Summer Triangle
straddling dark nebulae and
luminous star clouds poised over the volcanic peak.
The deep combined exposures also reveal the light of active
star forming
regions along the Milky Way,
echoing Etna's
ruddy hue
in the northern hemisphere
summer's
night.
