This is a relatively new image of the Southern view of the Milky Way, it was released in October 2025. You may need to upscale and sharpen the image for your desktop.

EDIT: It’s a bit confusing, th research team took “photos” (not really, they scanned the sky with radio telescopes) in 2013 and in the 2020s, thus there already exists similar images from the same team based on the 2013 data. What happened in October 2025 was, that they pubilshed a paper about the latest scans. Thus, I assume the above image is the latest, but I cannot assure that this is correct. It might be the latest but from 2013 or 2022, and the page doesn’t show a date. Sorry, it may not be the latest as in “this year”. My error.
