Galaxy Explorers - By: Babak A. Tafreshi
The Milky Way galaxy lights up the night above ALMA radio telescopes in Chile's Atacama Desert. The altitude—5,000 meters (16,400 feet) above sea level—allows for exceptional visibility. Mars, the Red Planet, is at the lower left, next to blue star Spica in Virgo. Near the center is Saturn and the zodiacal light brightens the sky at the upper right.
