你知道夜空中有很多有趣的星星和星雲嗎?這張圖片很特別,裡面充滿了很多星際的塵埃和氣體,還有著名的星團和星雲哦!在這幅圖裡,我們可以找到一些知名的夜空明星,比如:昴星團(Pleiades star cluster)、巴納德環(Barnard’s Loop)、獵戶星雲(Orion Nebula)、阿爾德巴蘭(Aldebaran)、貝特爾吉斯(Betelgeuse)、女巫頭星雲(Witch Head Nebula)、埃利達圈(Eridanus Loop)和加州星雲(California Nebula)。這張圖片拍攝自西班牙的格拉納達,曝光時間足足有16小時,讓我們能看到如此美麗又複雜的宇宙!今晚還有特別的活動,會發生總月食,讓我們一起期待吧!

How well do you know the night sky? OK, but how well can you identify famous sky objects in a very deep image? Either way, here is a test: see if you can find some well-known night-sky icons in a deep image filled with filaments of normally faint dust and gas. This image contains the Pleiades star cluster, Barnard’s Loop, Orion Nebula, Aldebaran, Betelgeuse, Witch Head Nebula, Eridanus Loop, and the California Nebula. To find their real locations, here is an annotated image version. The reason this task might be difficult is similar to the reason it is initially hard to identify familiar constellations in a very dark sky: the tapestry of our night sky has an extremely deep hidden complexity. The featured composite reveals some of this complexity in a 16 hours of sky exposure in dark skies over Granada, Spain. Tonight: Total Lunar Eclipse
