Summary

Description
English: The Ursa Major Arc is about 600 light years away and encircles the Big Dipper (part of Ursa Major the Great Bear), and portions of the Little Dipper, Draco and Canes Venatici. The faint arc requires high-end cameras and a special filter that blocks all visible light except the light of glowing hydrogen.
