Milky Way Over Abandoned Kilns
Our galaxy's central band arches over abandoned charcoal kilns in Nevada. The kilns, built in the 1870s, now stand as a monument to local history. This panorama captures the Milky Way, a colorful star field, above these unusual structures. It's a blend of five separate images, showing our galaxy's diagonal sweep.
