A starry sky over the Himalayas in Tibet, China. On the left (south) the bright central bulge of the Milky Way in the constellation Sagittarius and Scorpius shine above the Himalayan peaks of Shishapangma (8027 meters) and Gang Benchhen (7299 meters). Continue to the right, four bright celestial objects dominate the western sky. Planet Saturn is next to the yellow-red star Antares. Red planet Mars and the blue star Spica are setting paired near horizon, to their upper right is the bright star Arcturus. The panorama ends at right (north) with the seven bright stars which forms the famous asterism Big Dipper.
