The sky on
your birthday.
“A Cerro Tololo Sky” is copyrighted by Roger Smith. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteHigh in the Chilean Andes, the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory hosts some of the southern sky's most important telescopes. Here, we see the 4-meter Blanco Telescope, a major instrument of the past quarter-century. In the background, thousands of stars and the diffuse light from three galaxies are visible: the Small Magellanic Cloud, the Large Magellanic Cloud, and our own Milky Way.
