COSMIC MESSAGE

What can you see in the sky tonight? This image captures the Big Dipper, part of the constellation Ursa Major, visible in the northern hemisphere's spring sky after sunset. Even a casual glance upwards can reveal the same beautiful arrangement of stars that people across the Earth have seen for millennia. The cup end of the Big Dipper points toward Polaris, the North Star.
