One of the densest star fields in the Milky Way — the Small Sagittarius Star Cloud. Captured from May 20 to 27, 2026 at the iTelescope hosting facility in Namibia. Against the backdrop of stars and clusters, dark nebulae and hydrogen clouds are visible — there is a lot of hydrogen there, giving a very bright red hue in the image.
