The annual Candy Whispers to the Galaxy Pageant is being held from Monday to Saturday in Hami, Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur autonomous area, drawing skilled and novice astrophotographers and drone aerial photographers from throughout the nation.
Because the Perseid meteor bathe peaked on Tuesday and Wednesday at Hami’s Dahaidao Scenic Space, observers ventured deep into the distant space and captured beautiful panoramas of the Milky Approach and meteors streaking throughout the evening sky.
Dahaidao is a perfect location for stargazing and astrophotography resulting from its huge expanse of wind-eroded Yardang formations and minimal gentle air pollution.
One workforce livestreamed stargazing observations within the Gobi Desert, giving viewers real-time entry to the star-studded sky above the yardang landforms.
The occasion mixed intangible cultural heritage, folks performances and the promotion of astronomy. It highlighted Hami’s distinctive geology and starry skies, cementing its status as a premier astro-tourism vacation spot.
