The Galactic Center in Infrared
The center of our galaxy is hidden by dust in visible light. However, the Spitzer Space Telescope's infrared cameras can penetrate this dust, revealing the crowded stars of the galactic core. This false-color mosaic shows older, cool stars in blue hues. Red and brown glowing dust clouds mark regions of young, hot stars in stellar nurseries.
