Description

July 25, 2017 - The Milky Way and night sky on a perfectly clear night on the Canadian Prairies at Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park in Alberta, Canada, near the border looking south to the Sweetgrass Hills (West Butte) of Montana. The Milk River, which flows into the Missouri River, winds below. The site is sacred to the Blackfoot First Nations. The wooden buildings below are replicas of the late 1800s North West Mounted Police outpost in Police Coulee. Sagittarius and Scorpius are on the southern horizon at right, and Saturn is the bright object in the Dark Horse at far right. The galactic centre is amid the bright star clouds above the horizon. The sky at left is green with natural airglow. Altair is the bright star at top. The ground is illuminated only by starlight and airglow.
