The Milky Way is a strip of soft white light that crosses the night sky.
It extends from the constellation Cassiopeia in the north to the constellation Crux in the south, and is at its brightest in the constellation Sagittarius - the center of the Milky Way.
Normally, the Milky Way appears year-round in the sky. However, in Vietnam, the most favorable time to admire and take a photo of it is from March to October, on days when the sky is clear without moon, and with no clouds and no rain. The Milky Way will rise in the southeast between 1-3am.
The places where you can see the Milky Way must be far away from light pollution such as suburbs, seas, high mountains.
To take good pictures of the Milky Way, a relatively high-quality camera is required.
Many people have to stay up all night to hunt for the brightest, most sparkling moments.
