Roughly 1 trillion stars make up the Andromeda Galaxy, while the Milky Way Galaxy consists of about 250 billion stars. ✨🪐🌌

Refugio en el Universo

Refugio Punta de los Roques / La Palma 2019

6840 ft / 2085 m

On May 26th I started my first multi-day hiking trip into the mountains of La Palma. I choose parts of the GR-131 trail - better known as Ruta El Bastón - the famous trail of the Transvulcania Ultra Marathon. I started from Regufio El Pilar and wanted to hike two days to the Roque de Los Muchachos. On the way there is a cabin - the Refugio Punta de Los Roques - where I have planned to spend a night for photography. The Refugio is perfectly located and offers the best view at the Cascada de nubes.

In the end, the main panorama became a composition of 97 single photos. Meanwhile I was almost laying on the ground while shooting due to the freezing wind and I could hardly feel my fingers anymore.

One year later this image became the cover shot for my longterm astrophotography documentary „Canary Lullabies“

EXIF: Nikon D810 + AF-S 50mm

Hmmm. Visited a new section of the Organs Mountains, today. Took this 3 by 1 pano on a whim. For sure didn’t put any real effort into it…Got home and realized this is actually a really cool shot! I suppose there’s a lesson in there somewhere…Now, I want to get back out there and do this shot justice! Thank you to @monumental_loop for giving me the idea to even go out here. The sky there is great! - - - - - #starphotography #milkywaychasers #milkywaygalaxy #astrophotography #natgeospace #nikoncreators #timelessuniverse #mountainphotography #nikonoutdoors #ilovemountains #mountain #hill #milkyway #nightphotography #nightsky #nightscape #hikenewmexico #nightphoto #mountains #newmexico #instagrammersnm #amazingphotohunter #nikonnofilter #milkywaycore #nikonohotography #nikonausa #nikonshooter #landscapephotography #newmexicosky #newmexicolove (at Sierra de las Uvas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqOvxQzPMrF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’ll never forget the moment I learned I will never see a photo of the milky way in its entirety in my lifetime. Why is space so big?

"....A LARGE COMPLEX AREA OF BRIGHT AND DARK NEBULOSITY..."

PIC INFO: Spotlight on the Eta Carinae Nebula, a.k.a., NGC 3372, a giant nebula 9000 light years from Earth in the Sagittarius Arm of the Galaxy.  📸: Artem (captured from Namibia).

OVERVIEW: "The Carina Nebula is a large complex area of bright and dark nebulosity in the constellation of Carina. The nebula lies at an estimated distance between 6,500 and 10,000 light years from Earth. Star clusters Trumpler 16 is the home of WR 25, currently the most luminous star known in our Milky Way galaxy. Eta Carinae star is a highly luminous hypergiant star. Estimates of its mass range from 100 to 150 times the mass of the Sun, and its luminosity is about four million times that of the Sun."

Finally got some of the #milkyway with the addition of a plane passing through @fujifilmx_us #xt2 - XF 16mm f/1.4 - 25sec

Drum roll please!!!! This super massive blackhole deserves a grand entrance because it is none other than Sagittarius A*, the massive black hole at the heart of our Milky Way galaxy 😀 captured by the Event Horizon Telescope @ehtelescope . Even though Sagittarius A* is only (and I say only liberally) 27,000 light years from us, it would have been extremely difficult to image because the space between is full of all the dust and stars of the Milky Way. Sgr A* mass if 4 million times that of our own sun and it takes us 240 million years to do one full lap!! Our blackhole is so different from M87!! How exciting!!
