Description

Les bras spiraux d'une lointaine galaxie luisant de l'éclat combiné de 50 milliards d'étoiles. Les rideaux délicats des aurores boréales traversant le ciel une nuit sombre. Des nuages de gas et de poussière 10,000 plus large que notre système solaire. Ces impressionnantes merveilles de l'Univers, photographiées par des astronomes amateurs de talent et par les plus puissants télescopes de recherche, sont présentées ici en couleurs brillantes.

Ces 12 images à haute résolution ont été choisies par Terence Dickinson, astronome bien connu, qui a puisé dans sa vaste expérience pratique afin de commenter les événements célestes prévus au jour le jour, depuis les pluies de météores jusqu'aux éclipses.
