APOD 3.3

Pictured above is a "bridge" that connects the Northern Cross, Cygnus, to the Southern Cross, Crux. The bridge connecting the two is the Milky Way. Also pictured are the Moon (middle of bridge), Saturn and Mercury (below the moon), Venus (above the moon), and the Small and Large Magellanic clouds, which are satellite galaxies. It would require being in a pretty specific place to be able to see both the Northern and Southern crosses, and the perfect place for that would be Chile, where this photo was made with 30 images to create this beautiful panorama.
