Milky Way and sand dunes, Great Sand Dunes National Park, Colorado, USA
The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System. The descriptive milky is derived from the appearance from Earth of the galaxy - a band of light seen in the night sky formed from stars that cannot be individually distinguished by the naked eye. From Earth, the Milky Way appears as a band because its disk-shaped structure is viewed from within. The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with a diameter between 100, 000 and 180, 000 light-years (ly). It is estimated to contain 100-400 billion stars

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Milky Way galaxy as it gracefully stretches across the night sky above the stunning sand dunes of Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado, USA. The Milky Way, our very own cosmic home, is aptly named for its ethereal appearance from Earth - a luminous band of celestial light formed by countless stars that blend together to create an awe-inspiring spectacle. From our vantage point on this planet, we are unable to discern individual stars within this vast galactic tapestry. Instead, we witness a breathtaking panorama that seems to envelop us in its celestial embrace. The Milky Way's disk-shaped structure is revealed as a radiant band traversing the heavens when viewed from within. Spanning an incredible diameter between 100,000 and 180,000 light-years, this barred spiral galaxy is estimated to house anywhere from 100 to 400 billion stars. Each one contributing its brilliance and mystique to the grandeur of our universe. Photographer Danita Delimont masterfully captures this extraordinary scene with her lens. Her artistic vision transports us into a realm where time stands still and wonder fills our hearts. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of both our insignificance in the vastness of space and our profound connection to something far greater than ourselves. This print serves as a poignant reminder that amidst life's shifting sands and fleeting moments, there exists a timeless beauty that transcends all boundaries - inviting us to contemplate
