COSMIC MESSAGE
The mission was to document night-flying birds, but it ended up also documenting a beautiful sky. This wide-angle mosaic was taken over the steppe golden fields in Mértola, Portugal in 2020. From such a dark location, an immediately evident glow arched over the night sky: the central band of our Milky Way galaxy. Thin clouds crossed the sky like golden ribbons. The planet Mars appeared on the far left, while the planets Saturn and Jupiter were also visible.
