In this zoom sequence, we start with a broad panorama of the central parts of Milky Way. As we close in on part of the small constellation of Corona Australis, we start to see faint clouds and in the final part of the video the full glory of the dramatic star formation region NGC 6729 is revealed in a new image from the FORS1 instrument on the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (VLT).

Distance: 400 light years
