If you’re up before the sun at this time of year, you may see the Milky Way returning to dark skies. The starry band of our home galaxy appears in the early morning hours starting in February. And, fortunately for us, members of the EarthSky community of photographers have already shared some spectacular images with us. Enjoy the Milky Way pics in the video above and in this gallery. We’ll keep adding more as we get them. Do you have one of your own to share? Submit it to us!

Naiteek wrote: “I captured this image during our Milky Way Saga workshop, set in the ancient land of Kutch, once home to the great Harappan civilization. To reach our shooting spot, we descended 900 meters in pitch darkness, headlamps at full power, with insects buzzing around and heavy gear on our backs. The night was calm and silent as we waited for the Milky Way to rise.” Thank you, Naiteek!View at EarthSky Community Photos. | Ross Stone shared this shot of our home galaxy from March 5, 2025.
