This is a fun one for me. This is a mosaic centred between #M4 and #IC4604 - this means it only catches the edges of both, but there are all sorts of interesting things going on in between them. We've got some named stars from Scorpio, some reflection nebulae, some star-forming regions, open clusters, even a globular cluster!

And right down the bottom we have the red giant Antares.

This was shot over two nights, with each quarter getting 1 hour and 39 minutes for the base, and then another 15 minutes to create the stellated star mask layer.

Colorful Stars and Clouds near Rho Ophiuchi

Why is the sky near Antares and Rho Ophiuchi so colorful, yet dusty? The colors result from a mixture of objects and processes. Fine dust -- illuminated by starlight -- produces blue reflection nebulae. Gaseous clouds whose atoms are excited by ultraviolet starlight produce reddish emission nebulae.
