埃特納火山是地球上著名的活火山,在這幅山巒夜景圖中,埃特納火山山頂的光芒在地平線上顯得格外耀眼。銀河系無數恆星組成的漫射光帶橫跨整個天空。從輪廓上看,銀河系巨大的塵埃雲沿著銀河平面聚集在一起。但北方觀天者同樣熟悉的還有明亮的恆星Deneb、織女星和牽牛星,橫跨暗星雲和發光星雲的夏日三角峰。深度組合曝光還揭示了銀河沿線活躍恆星形成區的光芒,與埃特納在北半球夏夜的紅潤色調遙相呼應。
原文:A glow from the summit of Mount Etna, famous active stratovolcano of planet Earth, stands out along the horizon in this mountain and night skyscape. Bands of diffuse light from congeries of innumerable stars along the Milky Way galaxy stretch across the sky above. In silhouette, the Milky Way's massive dust clouds are clumped along the galactic plane. But also familiar to northern skygazers are bright stars Deneb, Vega, and Altair, the Summer Triangle straddling dark nebulae and luminous star clouds poised over the volcanic peak. The deep combined exposures also reveal the light of active star forming regions along the Milky Way, echoing Etna's ruddy hue in the northern hemisphere summer's night.
