Description

Baade's View is section of sky in Sagittarius looking towards the central bulge of our Milky Way Galaxy. The central bulge is mostly obscured by interstellar dust and gas. Baade's View is the largest of six areas that are relativity clear of dust and gas providing a "window" into the stars of the central bulge. Also visible are two globular clusters and several filaments of dust and gas dimming the light of the stars behind them.
