China News Service, Nanjing, May 8 (Yang Yanci) According to the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the 8th, the Milky Way Arch Bridge with a combination of landscape and landscape ushered in the best viewing season in May.

Seen from the horizon, the "stars" will set up a dazzling "diamond" ladder.

  According to Hu Fanghao, an engineer at the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Milky Way refers to a bright milky white band across the starry sky.

As the earth rotates, the Milky Way rises from the east to the west every day.

On a clear night in spring and summer, when the Milky Way just rises from the horizon, it spans the entire eastern sky and looks like a curved arch bridge from a distance.

It covers from Scorpio to Altair, Vega, and then to the sky area of ​​Cassiopeia... The "jewel necklace" in the sky is extremely magnificent. It is called "Galaxy Arch" by astronomers and is also highly sought after by photography enthusiasts.

  According to experts, the Milky Way generally rises in the east.

However, the most beautiful part of the Milky Way-the center of the galaxy is in the southeast, and the silver tail is directly below the North Star.

Therefore, a galaxy arch bridge is very vast and wide.

Although it can be seen with the naked eye, it is very difficult to "freeze" the complete Galaxy Arch Bridge into one photo, and it often requires multiple photos to be synthesized later.

  Generally speaking, the Galaxy Arch Bridge appears in a specific position at a specific time, and it is also necessary to consider the moon phase.

  Experts suggest that from now until May 22, the Galaxy Arch Bridge is in the best shooting period.

Interested astronomy and photography enthusiasts can choose a place without light pollution to capture the beauty of the stars under the dome.
