Have you ever seen the Southern Cross? This famous constellation is best seen from Earth’s Southern Hemisphere. Captured from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the four bright stars that mark the Southern Cross are visible just above the horizon in the featured image. On the left of this constellation, also known as The Crux, is the orange star Gamma Crucis. The band of stars, dust, and gas rising through the middle of the image mosaic is part our Milky Way Galaxy. Just to the right of the Southern Cross is the dark Coal Sack Nebula, and the bright nebula at the top of the image is the Carina Nebula. The Southern Cross is such a famous constellation that it is depicted on the national flags of Australia and New Zealand. Follow APOD on: Facebook, Google Plus, or Twitter

🌌 你有冇見過南十字星?呢個著名星座主要喺地球南半球可見。呢幅圖係由巴西里約熱內盧拍攝,四顆明亮嘅星星標記住南十字星,喺圖像嘅地平線上方可見。喺呢個星座左邊,係橙色星星伽馬十字星(Gamma Crucis)。圖像中間升起嘅星星、塵埃同氣體帶係我哋的銀河系一部分。喺南十字星右邊係黑暗嘅煤袋星雲(Coal Sack Nebula),而圖像上方嘅明亮星雲係卡瑞娜星雲(Carina Nebula)。南十字星咁出名,以至於佢喺澳洲同紐西蘭嘅國旗上都有體現。
