Our
milky way galaxy arcs of the desolate landscape of the Valle de la
Luna in the Chilean Atacama desert. You can see the lights of San
Pedro, Chile just along the horizon line, as well as Socaire,
Toconao, and the road in between Calama and San Pedro. Also seen are
the four galaxies easily visible from our fair planet's dark sky
regions. At the far left, satellite galaxies known as the Large and
Small Magellanic Clouds can be seen, as well as the much fainter, at
the right, Andromeda Galaxy. The most farthest away, Andromeda lies
some 2.5 million light-years away.
