Explanation:
Snow-capped Stratovolcano Mt. Damavand climbs to 5,670 meters (18,598 feet)
near the left edge in this panoramic view of the world at night. In the sky to
the left of Damavand's peak are the stars of the Big Dipper in Ursa Major. Pan
to the right and your gaze will sweep across the arch of our Milky Way Galaxy
above the Alborz Mountain Range bordering the Caspian Sea. Near the center of
the panorama, recorded in the predawn hours of April 4th, bright stars Deneb
and Altair lie close to the curve of the Milky Way, above the glow of the Haraz
valley. Farther right, brilliant Jupiter dominates the sky near the stars,
nebulae, and dark dust clouds toward the bulging galactic center. Finally, the
horizon glow at the right edge, below bright yellowish giant star Antares, is
from the city of Damavand, named for the legendary mountain peak
