Spring Milky Way over Cape Cod

The Milky Way, a fuzzy, blotchy bright band across a starry sky, above a body of water with a bridge in foreground.

At this time of year, you have to get up early to see the Milky Way stretching across the sky. Jatinkumar wrote: “Cape Cod has the darkest sky within the state. As the Milky Way season has begun, my friends and I decided to go to Cape Cod to take pictures of the Milky Way near the seashore. What a calm and clear night! We could see a clear reflection of the Milky Way in the water.” Thank you, Jatinkumar!
