The Milky Way Returns to Frosty Drew Observatory on Earth Day

While watching the 2015 Lyrid Meteor Shower and attempting to capture a few passing meteors I noticed a significant amount of Airglow among the rather thick haze. As the stunning Milky Way rose higher off the horizon my camera started picking up fascinating colors in the haze. Awesome night! I snapped this at Frosty Drew Observatory in Charlestown, Rhode Island, USA.
