As the Sun sets over Maunakea, one of the volcanoes constituting the island of Hawai‘i, a soft golden glow washes over the telescopes that call the mountain home. For many, golden hour signifies the closing of a day, the time to begin preparing for sleep. But for staff at Gemini North (left), one half of the International Gemini Observatory, operated by NSF NOIRLab which is funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation, golden hour signifies the beginning of the work day. As soon as the Sun dips below the horizon, the telescope domes open and the telescope comes to life. Also pictured here is the Canada-France-Hawai‘i Telescope (right) and, in the distance from left to right, the Subaru Telescope, W. M. Keck Observatory, and NASA Infrared Telescope Facility. All the telescopes on Maunakea are part of the Maunakea Observatories.
\r\nThis photo was taken as part of the NOIRLab 2022 Photo Expedition to all the NOIRLab sites. Petr Horálek, the photographer, is a NOIRLab Audiovisual Ambassador.

This image, taken during one of the public stargazing programs at Kitt Peak, features the KPNO 2.1-meter telescope (right), operated by NOIRLab, and the Robotically Controlled Telescope (left), operated by the RCT consortium. In addition to cameras, many of the telescopes at KPNO are equipped with spectrographs which separate the light into its constituent colors, just as water droplets in rain clouds split sunlight into a rainbow. Knowing the amount of light that a celestial object produces at each wavelength allows scientists to measure the object’s various properties. With spectroscopy, we’ve measured the composition of exoplanetary atmospheres, the metallicity of stars, the motion of celestial planets, and the distances to far-away galaxies. More information can be learned through spectroscopy than from imaging alone, making it a crucial tool for studying the Universe.

The Milky Way galaxy appears to be pouring out of the open dome and spilling across the colorful sky. The wash of yellow and green near the horizon is a mix of airglow and light pollution from nearby villages. Where the two colors transition, the Large Magellanic Cloud and Small Magellanic Cloud shine through (lower left). But near the center of this image is a truly notable grouping: the constellation Crux. Also known as the Southern Cross, it’s discoverable by its red star (the top of the cross) and three nearby blue stars that form a cross shape. This grouping of stars has been a beacon for both European and Pacific Islander navigators for centuries. Its navigational use is akin to Polaris, but instead of directing people to the North Pole, Crux points — roughly — towards the South Pole.

It is easy to assume that the deep void of outer space is completely dark, given the massive distances between celestial objects, but with the proper technique the truer count of all these objects becomes visible. Gemini North, one half of the International Gemini Observatory, operated by NSF’s NOIRLab, beholds this ethereal view of the brimming sky. With our naked eyes, we can see about 6000 stars, out of around 200 billion in the Milky Way. And this doesn’t even include the plethora of other astronomical objects!
\r\nAt the bottom of this image, the dense cloud deck below Gemini North’s position suppresses light pollution from neighboring cities. This blanket facilitates a substantially darker and clearer night, and light from fainter stars can more easily be captured. Appearing like a reflection of the clouds, the Milky Way itself is visible on the Hawaiian horizon. Also at the horizon, a bright band glows from the right half of the image — this is sunlight reflecting off of interplanetary dust, creating zodiacal light. On the opposite side of the horizon shines a splash of backscattered sunlight called the gegenschein.

The darkest skies in the world, such as this one over Cerro Pachón, are actually theaters for a spectacular show of cosmic lights. Above Gemini South (right of center), half of the International Gemini Observatory operated by NSF’s NOIRLab, and Vera C. Rubin Observatory (right), a Program of NSF’s NOIRLab, the lights from stars, our galaxy, and atmospheric interplay are captured with a long exposure in this Image of the Week.
\r\nNear the horizon is a hazy sea of faint red and green light known as airglow; this glow is caused by atomic processes in the Earth’s atmosphere. Our neighboring galaxies, the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds, are visible as blobs of light above the striped pole and the white post, respectively.
\r\nAbove Gemini South is the blooming Gum Nebula, the remains of a supernova whose red color is due to its abundance of hydrogen. Of course our home galaxy, the Milky Way, is impossible to ignore in this image. The remote Chilean sky brings out its bright disk and dark molecular clouds.
\r\nEven in this dark night, urban illumination looms. On the other side of the horizon between the pole and the post is light from a nearby town. Light pollution can pose a threat to all these light shows, so NOIRLab is working to protect our dark skies.
\r\nThis photo was taken as part of the NOIRLab 2022 Photo Expedition to all the NOIRLab sites. Tomáš Slovinský, the photographer, is a NOIRLab Audiovisual Ambassador.

As the day progresses and the Sun reaches the horizon, visible light has to pass through denser materials in the atmosphere. This scatters the light at longer wavelengths or in other words, redder light. This scattering creates spectacularly colorful views that anyone can see here on Earth.
\n \nOn the far right, Gemini North — one half of the International Gemini Observatory, operated by NSF’s NOIRLab — sits on the mountaintop against the vivid sunset and alongside several other observatories.

The Bok telescope was named after astronomer Bart Bok, a previous director of Steward Observatory, part of the University of Arizona. It is one of the largest optical telescopes at Kitt Peak operated solely by Steward Observatory.
\r\nWithin the band of the Milky Way, just right of the Bok telescope, the constellation Orion (The Hunter) can be identified by its distinctive three-star belt. Just below the belt is the Orion Nebula (Messier 42), marking Orion’s sword. To the right of Orion at a 45 degree angle is the constellation Taurus (The Bull), notable by its V-shape of bright stars. To the right of Taurus, ‘defended’ from Orion, are the Pleiades (the Seven Sisters), an open star cluster also known as Messier 45. The glowing red regions around these stars are caused by shockwaves from newly formed stars that have excited clouds of molecular hydrogen, which appear prominently, as in this image, when using deep photographic techniques.
\r\nOn the left side of the horizon the light from the city of Nogales in this remote part of Arizona illuminates the distinctive form of the McMath–Pierce Solar Telescope — what was for many decades the largest solar telescope in the world. On the other side of the image, the sky is illuminated not by human-made light, but by nature-powered airglow in the atmosphere. Piercing the Milky Way is the zodiacal light — a faint glow of scattered sunlight from dust in the Solar System.
\r\nThis photo was taken as part of the recent NOIRLab 2022 Photo Expedition to all the NOIRLab sites. Tomáš Slovinský, the photographer, is a NOIRLab Audiovisual Ambassador.
