COSMIC MESSAGE

The band of our Milky Way Galaxy stretches across the French Alps in this image. We are inside this disk, so it appears to encircle Earth. This particular picture is a composite, created by digitally combining multiple exposures to enhance the galaxy's faint glow against the dark sky.
