The sky on
your birthday.
A Gemini Sky
Gemini North, one of the largest telescopes on Earth, is shown here at dusk, preparing to observe the distant universe. Its flexible 8.1-meter mirror has provided data on stars, nebulae, galaxies, and quasars. This composite image, made from over 40 exposures as the dome rotated, helps us understand the geometry, composition, and evolution of our universe.
