The Unseen Night Sky

Via Fred at Eternal Golden Braid.

Take a look at today's Astronomy Picture of the Day.

It's a superimposed, black and white image of the nebulae and stellar formations which are normally too faint to see in the night sky, all together in their relative positions.

So while Earth's night sky is impressive when you get to a dark and isolated place (as I confirmed on my trip to the Badlands last year), its even more impressive than that, if you could but see.
