We finally have got some decent dark skies here in Norway. My first image this autumn is Andromeda - M31-M32- M110.
The Andromeda galaxy is our nabour galaxy only 2.5 MLY away. It has trillions of stars and Magitude 4.4, you can see it easy with a binocular under dark skies.
Celestron ED80 piggyback on CPC 1100 - 600 mm f7.5, Canon 40D modified, 30x4 min guided, ISO 800, 20 darks, no flats.
- Messier 33 In The Triangulum
Messier 33 in Triangulum is a beautiful galaxy 'only' 3 MLY from us. Williams Optics 110 Refractor with FR0.8. Astro Phystics 1200 mount. Canon 40D modified, 13x5min and 13x10 exposures ISO 1600. With a diameter of about 50,000 light years, the...
- The M109 Galaxy In Ursa Major
The Galaxy Messier 109, NGC3992 is a fine barred spiral galaxy in Ursa Major with Mag10,6 (13200 x fainter than Vega). It is about 46 MLY away from us. The faint galaxy to the left is UGC06969 (Mag15.4 - 132xfainter than M109) and the other one below...
- The Rosette Nebula In Monoceros In Ha
The Rosette Nebula with NGC 2244 star cluster in its middle is beautiful. The mass of the nebula is estimated to be around 10,000 solar masses. The cluster and nebula lie at a distance of some 5,200 LY from Earth and measure roughly 130 LY in diameter....
- Messier 58-59-60 And Many More Galaxies
This image shows 10 galaxies I identified in the constellation Virgo. By a closer look there are even many more there, but you need a magnified view to see them. From left to right across the picture are:M60 (elliptic galaxy)at 55MLY with its companion...
- Andromeda Galaxy
The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 2,500,000 light-years (1.58×1011 AU) away in the constellation Andromeda. It is also known as Messier 31, M31, or NGC 224, and is often referred to as the Great Andromeda Nebula in older texts. Andromeda...
