Watch the Milky Way galaxy core pass

Watch the Milky Way galaxy core pass majestic_flights over the shores of Acadia National Park in Maine. The bright yellow area is the Large Sagittarius Star Cloud, the brightest visible region of our galactic center. It's the innermost galactic structure that can be observed in visible wavelengths. Being depleted of the gas and dust from which new stars form, the region contains no young blue stars. Instead, the brightest stars are orange giants very densely populated, which is why the Cloud has a yellowish tint on color photos
