[Image description: A series of patterns mapped out in bright stars in a night sky with a faint nebula beyond. The constellations are connection with yellow lines and, left-to-right, top-to-bottom, are as follows: Aquila, scutum, Ophiuchus, Serpens, Capricorn, Libra, Sagittarius, Scorpius, and Lupus. In the middle is a bright, pinkish star with green crosshairs around it, labelled SRB 1806-20. I'm not going to try to describe the shapes because we'll be here all day and they probably won't make any sense anyway! End image description.]
