EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Delphinus constellation, also known as Aquarius. With its sprawling and expansive nature, this zodiacal constellation is home to only a handful of bright stars. However, what truly catches the eye in this image is the trefoil grouping of four stars resembling the iconic Mercedes symbol at the upper left corner. As we gaze upon this celestial wonder, our attention is drawn to Fomalhaut, a radiant star located at the lower left side. This brilliant beacon belongs to another constellation called Piscis Austrinis or the southern fish. Meanwhile, at lower right lies Capricornus –the water goat– with its brightest star Al Giedi shining brightly on far right alongside Dabih. With North positioned at top, this optical image offers us a glimpse into an enchanting night sky filled with countless stars that form an intricate tapestry across space. It serves as a reminder of our place within the vast cosmos and ignites our curiosity about these distant stellar wonders. Captured by Science Photo Library's expert lens, this print invites us to explore and appreciate not only Delphinus but also other cosmic marvels that adorn our universe. Let it inspire awe and fascination for all those who behold it - a true testament to humanity's enduring quest for knowledge in astronomy and beyond.
