It has been one of the better skies of this long night. In parts of Antarctica, not only is it winter, but the Sun can spend weeks below the horizon. At China’s Zhongshan Station, people sometimes venture out into the cold to photograph a spectacular night sky. The featured image from one such outing was taken in mid-July, just before the end of this polar night. Pointing up, the wide angle lens captured not only the ground at the bottom, but at the top as well. In the foreground is a colleague also taking pictures. In the distance, a spherical satellite receiver and several windmills are visible. Numerous stars dot the night sky, including Sirius and Canopus. Far in the background, stretching overhead from horizon to horizon, is the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy. Even further in the distance, visible as extended smudges near the top, are the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, satellite galaxies near our huge Milky Way Galaxy.

這個長夜中，天空無疑是其中一個最佳的景象。在南極的部分地區，不僅是冬天，還有數周的時間太陽都在地平線以下。在中國的中山站（Zhongshan Station），人們經常冒著寒冷的天氣出門，拍攝壯觀的夜空。這張來自某次出行的照片拍攝於七月中，正值這段極夜的結束。照片使用廣角鏡頭拍攝，不僅捕捉了地面的景色，還包括了天上的美景。
前景中是一位同事也在拍攝照片。遠處可見一個球形衛星接收器和幾座風力發電機。數顆星星在夜空中閃爍，包括天狼星（Sirius）和可知星（Canopus）。更遙遠的背景中，從一邊的地平線延伸到另一邊的則是我們的銀河系的中心帶。在更遠的距離上，作為擴展的模糊區域出現在頂部的是大型和小型麥哲倫雲（Large and Small Magellanic Clouds），它們是靠近銀河系的衛星星系。
