Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Milky Way in the constellation of Aquila
Milky Way. Optical image of our galaxy, the Milky Way, in the constellation of Aquila the Eagle. The brightest star in Aquila is Altair (lower left). The Milky Way is a luminous band in the sky caused by the light of stars which are too numerous to be seen indivi-dually. The stars are numerous because an observer looking in their direction is viewing along the plane of our galaxys disk. The dark lane in the Milky Way, called the Great Rift, runs from upper left to top right. The darkness of the Great Rift is caused by huge clouds of interstellar dust which block the light from the more distant stars

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Milky Way in the constellation of Aquila, also known as the Eagle. Illuminating the night sky, our galaxy is displayed in all its glory, with Altair, the brightest star in Aquila, shining brightly in the lower left corner. The Milky Way appears as a luminous band stretching across the heavens, composed of countless stars that are too numerous to be distinguished individually. The abundance of stars within this galactic spectacle is due to our vantage point along the plane of our galaxy's disk. As we gaze towards this celestial wonderland, we witness a dark lane known as the Great Rift cutting through from upper left to top right. This enigmatic darkness is caused by immense clouds of interstellar dust that obstruct light from more distant stars. In this image captured by Science Photo Library, one cannot help but marvel at both the grandeur and intricacy present within our vast cosmos. It serves as a reminder of humanity's place within an awe-inspiring universe and ignites curiosity about what other mysteries lie beyond our reach.
