The tail of Scorpius in the Milky Way.
The tail of Scorpius, photographed with it high in the sky from Australia. The frame is oriented with the Milky Way running horizontally and the hook of the tail vertically. At right are the clusters and nebulas of the False Comet area around NGC 6124. At left are the red nebulas of NGC 6334, the Cat’s Paw, and NGC 6357 (sometimes called the Lobster Nebula, for a Paws and Claws pairing). The cluster NGC 6124 is at right.
