It is cool to see just how large the stars are on such a large photo. Even the densest part of the dust cloud is 8 light years long. The extremely hot stars of Corona Australis emit a blue glow that is somewhat scattered by the surrounding dust cloud. To the bottom left of the constellation is a star cluster, which is extremely awesome looking, it looks like a massive amount of stars are colliding to create a super-massive star. Overall a very full picture, and extremely beautiful. One thing about this photo makes me think though, just how large and how much dust is their in our galaxy, and what do they form? Guess that is knowledge to come as I take Astronomy.
