The Carina Nebula by EddieTrimarchi on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
An expanse of hydrogen gas that originates from the brightest star near the center of the picture.
The star, Eta Carina is thought to be most likely to go supernova next, in our galaxy.
The last supernova in our galaxy was in 1604 even though the accepted estimated rate for milky way supernovae is 3 per century.
This picture is a 10-part mosaic taken with a 900mm Maksutov-Newtonian telescope and SBIG 3.2 megapixel cooled CCD camera with 6nm Hydrogen-alpha filter.
Exposures: 2 hours for each mosaic tile.
Total: 20 hours.

What the city is missing: Thierry Cohen photographs cityscapes and then photographs deserts at night, combing the two to show us what our cities would look like with the lights off. The stars are not enhanced, they are actual photos from relative latitudes that would expose the same starry sky view if it weren’t for light pollution. Click on each photo to see which city it is.
