🚙✨ Under the Untouched Skies of Jalapão ✨🌌
In this panoramic image, the cerrado sky reveals its spectacle in multiple acts. On the right, the majestic arc of the Milky Way dominates the scene, showcasing the galactic core in vibrant colors, with prominent pink nebulae and golden tones from billions of stars.
To the left, the sky takes on reddish and greenish hues thanks to airglow — a natural emission from the Earth's upper atmosphere, visible only in places with extremely low light pollution. Just below, the zodiacal light rises in a soft triangular glow, caused by sunlight reflecting off interplanetary dust along the Solar System’s plane.
On the ground, the sand tracks and vehicles point toward the vastness above, like explorers of time and space. A technical capture, but also an invitation to wonder: between distant galaxies and atmospheric particles, Jalapão’s sky reminds us that Earth still holds portals to the cosmos. 🌍🔭
