The starlight we see does not belong to the present itself. It sets out from different reaches of space, crossing dust, gravity, and the silence of near-vacuum, carrying the heat of stars and the faint glow of nebulae, before arriving here, in this moment.
Through Nearfield Blue, Milky Way Galaxy 2.0 traces two states of light upon arrival: one clear and restrained, the other distant and indistinct. They stand at opposite ends of the Spectrum of Time, allowing us to sense time in its varying depths.
