Need some space? The Astronomy Photographer of The Year 2024 exhibition opens at the National Maritime Museum in London on Saturday, September 14.
Now in its sixteenth year, the Astronomy Photographer of The Year 2024 competition is the highest profile in the world for astrophotographers. It’s run by the Royal Observatory Greenwich, supported by Liberty Specialty Markets and in association with BBC Sky at Night Magazine. An expert panel of judges from the worlds of art and astronomy judged the entries.
Since the shortlist was revealed in July, an expert panel of judges has whittled down the incredible 31 images to an overall winning image, a winning image in each of nine categories, and two special prizes.
The 3,500 entries submitted from amateur and professional photographers in 58 countries include out-of-this-world images of the aurora borealis, the Milky Way, shooting stars and colorful supernova remnants.
Wishing you clear skies and wide eyes.
