Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2009
This year’s Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2009 has been announced, with the award for the Earth and Space category going to Australian photographer Ted Dobosz.
The picture captures a dark, starry night where the glow from the galactic bulge of the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds stretched across the night sky. As the Earth spins during the 30-minute exposure of the photograph, the stars make trails around the southern celestial pole.
