The same section of the Milky Way with detailed inserts of four regions. The first region contains the Elephant's Trunk Nebula, which is barely visible as a dark line. The Pyramid Cluster is a star cluster that, well, looks like a pyramid. In the center of the image is a very red area where the North America Nebula, the Pelican Nebula, and the dark Gulf of Mexico Nebula are located. The Sadr Region, also with red nebulae, is highlighted as well.

An image of the starry night sky focused on eight bright stars forming the Orion constellation. Two inserts highlight the areas where the nebulae are. The yellow Flame Nebula and the black-on-red Horsehead Nebula are barely visible. The bluish Running Man Nebula is also very faint, but the bright reddish Orion Nebula is clearly distinguishable.

An image of the starry night sky focused on eight bright stars forming the Orion constellation. To better see the constellation, the stars are connected with green lines, forming something like a torso. The stars are all named: Betelgeuse, Rigel, Bellatrix, and Saiph form the torso; Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka form the belt; and Meissa is the head.

An image of the starry night sky focused on eight bright stars forming the Orion constellation. The top-left star is yellow, while the others are blue. Many more stars are visible, as well as the Orion Nebula, which is a small white blob in the lower center of the constellation.

The central region of a planetary nebula is shown in a box. Labels indicate “Shock waves”, “Outflow collisions”, and an “Ionised jet” in the dust on both sides of the nebula. Close to the centre, “Dusty torus” and “Ionised torus” are marked. In the very middle, a faint dot inside a blotchy pink cloud is labelled “Dying star”. Bright stars surround the nebula and can be seen through the dust layers.

A vertical astrophotography image taken on a dark night, dominated by a clear view of the starry sky. Thousands of individual stars are visible against the deep indigo-blue sky, including a faint, hazy band of the Milky Way stretching diagonally across the right side of the frame. In the foreground, a dark, silhouetted landscape forms a low horizon line across the bottom, appearing to be a low hill or coastline. Below this silhouette is a dark band, likely water or a shadowed foreground. A single, distinct, bright red light, of a navigation beacon, is located in the bottom right corner of the image, contrasting sharply with the dark foreground and the blue-starlit sky. The overall mood is peaceful and vast.
