Canvas Print : Scorpius constellation
Canvas Prints from Science Photo Library
Scorpius constellation
Scorpius constellation. Scorpius, the scorpion, is a zodiacal constellation crossed by the Milky Way. It is best seen in summer in the northern hemisphere. The brightest star in Scorpius is the red supergiant Antares (Alpha Scorpii, just right of centre), the 16th brightest star in the night sky. The star marks the heart of the scorpion, with its head being formed by the column of three bright stars at centre right. The tail extends downwards from Antares before curling up to form the sting at lower left. The scorpion has no claws; these became the neighbouring constellation Libra. The bright Milky Way is obscured by dark dust clouds at left

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Scorpius constellation, a celestial wonder that graces our summer nights in the northern hemisphere. As we gaze upon this image, we are drawn into a world where the scorpion comes to life amidst a backdrop of twinkling stars and cosmic wonders. At the heart of this magnificent creature lies Antares, a brilliant red supergiant star that shines with unparalleled radiance. Positioned just right of center, it serves as both guide and guardian for Scorpius. The scorpion's head is formed by three luminous stars standing tall at center-right, while its tail gracefully extends downwards before curling up to form its venomous sting at lower left. As we explore this celestial masterpiece further, we notice how the dark dust clouds obscure parts of the bright Milky Way at left. These ethereal lanes add depth and mystery to an already enchanting scene, reminding us of the vastness and complexity of our universe. In capturing this extraordinary moment in time, Science Photo Library invites us to immerse ourselves in the wonders above. This print is not only an astronomical marvel but also a testament to humanity's fascination with space exploration and discovery. Let it inspire you to look up at night skies filled with countless stories waiting to be told.
