Milky Way Viewed From the CARMA Radio Telescope Array. CARMA is the Combined Array for Research in Milimeter Wave Astronomy run by Caltech, Berkeley, Univ Indiana Urbana, and Univ Maryland. It is located in the High Desert at Cedar Flats in the Inyo Mountains near Bishop, California. The image was taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 16 mm f/2.8 fisheye lens (ISO 1600, 16 mm, f/2.8, 30 sec).
According to an article in Wikipedia the telescopes ceased operation in April 2015.

I am a scientist by training (Eckerd College, BSc; Caltech, Ph.D.). I worked for 27 years as a Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry developing processes to manufacture medicines for human and animal health. I now spend my time as a photographer and world traveler. My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.
