"Rouen Cathedral is one of the most famous Gothic cathedrals in the world thanks to the series of paintings that Claude Monet, the master of the Impressionists, dedicated to it. In the heart of the historic city, Rouen Cathedral sums up the evolution of Gothic art, since the beginning of its construction in the 12th century, on the foundations of a 4th century basilica and an 11th century Romanesque complex."

The Galactic Core of the Milky Way, as observed from Yosemite National Park.

Over the summer (August 2024), I was fortunate enough to stargaze near Half Dome in the woods. No lights, no tourists. Coming from New York, the night sky is filled with light pollution, making it incredibly difficult to generally stargaze. Yet, being among the wilderness in the natural nowhere of California, with absolutely no light pollution, I saw a sight I could never, in a million years, ever forget. The idea of seeing the Milky Way with your own bare eyes seems so surreal, until you're in that position, like I was. I consider myself so lucky to have seen something so breathtaking.

On moonless nights, the Galactic Core is visible from any point on Earth that has absolutely no light pollution during late summer to mid fall. One day, no matter how far ahead in the future, make time to travel somewhere desolate and uninhabited, and observe our Milky Way's core. These images barely capture the beauty of our galaxy when seen in person. Find time to appreciate our universe and the fascinating complexity of astronomy. Science is a magnificent thing.
