Zodiacal Arc and the Milky Way over Kitt Peak 360 Panorama

A 360 panorama of the UArizona Bok 2.3-meter Telescope and the Nicholas U. Mayall 4-meter Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) near Tucson, Arizona. The Milky Way, with its dark dust lanes, is clearly visible in the sky while the fainter zodiacal arc is seen as a wispy arch of white light.
