Fine Art Print : Milky Way Galaxy
Fine Art Prints from Stocktrek
Milky Way Galaxy
In visible light, the bulk of our Milky Way galaxys stars are eclipsed behind thick clouds of galactic dust and gas. But to the infrared eyes of the Spitzer Space Telescope, distant stars and dust clouds shine with unparalleled clarity and color.
In this panoramic image from the Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire project, a plethora of stellar activity in the Milky Ways galactic plane, reaching to the far side of our galaxy, is exposed. This image spans 9 degrees of sky (approximately the width of a fist held out at arms length).
The red clouds indicate the presence of large organic molecules (mixed with the dust), which have been illuminated by nearby star formation. The patches of black are dense obscuring dust clouds impenetrable by even Spitzers super-sensitive infrared eyes. Bright arcs of white throughout the image are massive stellar incubators

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning panoramic image captured by the Spitzer Space Telescope unveils the hidden beauty of our Milky Way galaxy. In visible light, most of the stars in our galactic neighborhood are concealed behind thick veils of interstellar dust and gas. However, through the infrared lens of Spitzer, a mesmerizing display of distant stars and vibrant dust clouds emerges with unparalleled clarity and color. Stretching across 9 degrees of sky, equivalent to the width of a fist held at arm's length, this remarkable photograph is part of the Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire project. It exposes an abundance of stellar activity within the Milky Way's galactic plane that extends all the way to its far side. The red-hued clouds scattered throughout signify large organic molecules mixed with dust particles that have been illuminated by nearby star formations. On the other hand, patches of black represent dense obscuring dust clouds that even Spitzer's super-sensitive infrared eyes cannot penetrate. Scattered arcs of brilliant white highlight massive stellar incubators brimming with celestial energy. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring view from space, it serves as a reminder not only of our place within this vast universe but also how much there still is to explore beyond our own planet Earth. This image encapsulates both scientific wonder and artistic beauty, showcasing nature's grandeur on an astronomical scale.
