The Milky Way Over Arizona Toadstools
The introduction posed by APOD to the summary regarding this photograph really caught my interest. In this photograph, taken in Arizona, what is older: the rock formations or the sky above? In most instances rocks are far more ancient, but by merely even seeing the galaxy and the stars from the Milky Way, you are looking directly into history. The light that you see is millions of years old but just now reaching us due to the insane distance between them and us.
Godspeed,
Melanie
