Description
Our Milky Way galaxy majestically rising in the early pre-dawn skies above Mauna Kea. Venus is the very bright "star" right below the galaxy. The city of Hilo can also be seen in the distance (a rarity, since it is usually covered with very thick clouds). Cars traveling on Saddle Road which goes between Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa is visible just to the right of Hilo. The true summit of Mauna Kea is covered partially in snow, and is visible on the right side of the image.
