This photo was taken on the Big Island of Hawaii. It shows the Milky Way Galaxy, part of which crosses the constellation Sagittarius. The Milky Way stars that lie just above Sagittarius's teapot look like steam rising from the tea.

The brightest stars of Sagittarius comprise a teapot in the lower right portion of the constellation.
