Milky Way Seen Over The Temple In Kantale, Sri Lanka
The Milky Way is appearing over the Buddha statue in Kantale, Sri Lanka, on July 4, 2024. In the tranquil nights of July, the sky is becoming a celestial theater. The Milky Way is stretching across like a shimmering river, Jupiter is gleaming brightly in the southeast, and Saturn is gracing the southwestern horizon with its majestic rings. Shooting stars from the Delta Aquariids meteor shower are adding brief, dazzling streaks to the canvas of the night. Constellations like Sagittarius and Scorpius are telling their own ancient stories against the backdrop of a summer night sky. (Photo by Thilina Kaluthotage/NurPhoto)
