Starfield. Optical image of a starfield in the constellation Ophiuchus, the serpent bearer. North is at top. The star at centre is Zeta Ophiuchi. It is surrounded by faint red nebulosity, comprising hydrogen gas which glows as it is ionised by radiation from nearby hot stars. The Milky Way runs through the bottom left corner, providing rich starfields. It is the band of light crossing the sky formed from the millions of stars in the plane of our galaxy. Ophiuchus is best seen in summer from the northern hemisphere

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a starfield in the constellation Ophiuchus, also known as the serpent bearer. With its north positioned at the top, this optical image showcases the celestial wonders that adorn our night sky. At the heart of this cosmic masterpiece lies Zeta Ophiuchi, a brilliant star surrounded by delicate red nebulosity. These ethereal clouds are composed of ionized hydrogen gas, emitting an enchanting glow under the influence of radiation from neighboring hot stars. As we explore further into this scene, we witness the Milky Way gracefully sweeping through the bottom left corner. This luminous band represents millions of stars residing within our galaxy's plane and adds depth to an already rich tapestry of stellar fields. Ophiuchus reveals itself most vividly during summer nights in the northern hemisphere when stargazers can marvel at its splendor. This awe-inspiring photograph not only immerses us in a world beyond our own but also serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity about space and our place within it. Displayed proudly on your wall or desk, this Science Photo Library print invites you to embark on an extraordinary journey through constellations and nebulae while igniting your passion for astronomy and cosmology.
