Explanation:
There is a road that connects the Northern to the Southern Cross but you have
to be at the right place and time to see it. The road, as pictured above, is
actually the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy; the right place, in this
case, is dark Laguna Cejar in Salar de Atacama of Northern Chile; and the right
time was in early October, just after sunset. Many sky wonders were captured
then, including the bright Moon, inside the Milky Way arch; Venus, just above
the Moon; Saturn and Mercury, just below the Moon; the Large and Small
Magellanic Clouds satellite galaxies, on the far left; red airglow near the
horizon on the image left; and the lights of small towns at several locations
across the horizon. One might guess that composing this 30-image panorama would
have been a serene experience, but for that one would have required earplugs to
ignore the continued brays of wild donkeys.
