Description

Cosmic color show around the Heart of the Scorpion

Our show begins with Antares, a red super giant star in the constellation of Scorpius which is showing off magnificent yellow colors in a region which is truly the most beautiful in the sky. The show goes on with two blue reflection nebulae and two globular clusters with golden color stars. At the center right, the bright star (Al Niyat) is creating a lovely bluish reflection and a beautiful umbrella of red emission. Finally, brown dust lanes and dark nebulae visible mostly at the top, end our show.

What a magnificent show !, I hope you like it

N.B: It appears the histogram is showing off its colors too...
