The story behind the picture:



This is the galactic core of our home galaxy, the Milky Way. This image has been taken on March 19th at 04:58 AM just when the moon had set. In the past I wasn't aware that the center of the Milky Way is already visible in March, therefore I was very excited to start the astronomy summer a bit earlier this time. I haven't taken astro shots in the snow so far, so I got colder feet than usual.

To capture the Milky Way at 50mm in this detail I used a star tracker which was following the stars. Due to this, you can see the movement of the ground. I left this slightly blurred landscape to show that our solar system is orbiting the galactic core and not the other way around. Saturn (in the middle) and Mars (upper right corner) are also visible in this picture.
