El Observatorio Real de Greenwich ha dado a conocer los resultados de este concurso fotográfico global de gran popularidad, que premia a las más bellas y espectaculares visiones del cosmos.
En una ceremonia realizada el 23 de octubre de 2018, en el Observatorio Real de Greenwich, Reino Unido, se anunciaron los nombres de los ganadores del concurso Insight Investment Astronomy Photographer of the Year de este año. Las fotografías premiadas podrán verse en una exposición retrospectiva que conmemora los diez primeros años del concurso, en la nueva Galería de Fotografías del Museo Marítimo Nacional, a partir del 24 de octubre de 2018. ESO se ha asociado al certamen aportando un juez, Oana Sandu, del Departamento de Educación y Difusión.
El ganador absoluto de este año resultó ser Brad Goldpaint de EE.UU., quien recibirá un premio de £10.000. Su espectacular imagen, titulada “Transport the Soul” fue captada desde Moab, EE.UU.
