Stars shows the multitude of stars in our own galaxy. The Milky Way holds hundreds of billions of stars, and this frame captures only a tiny sliver of them – each one a distant sun, differing in colour and brightness.
A star's colour reveals its temperature: the hottest shine blue-white, while cooler stars glow yellow, orange or red. The light you see here has travelled for years, centuries or even millennia before reaching the telescope, so every point in this image is a message from the past.
