Had an early morning surprise while walking the dog today. Another interacting group of galaxies the Whale and Hockey Stick Galaxies. This is an amazing galaxy rich area of the sky, I zoomed on just one, there are hundreds in the full resolution photo. I've been focusing lately on creating images of unusually shaped objects and multiple objects...NGC 3718 certainly fits that bill as in interacting and S-shaped galaxy. First light on my ZWO FF80 tonight! M94 is a spiral galaxy in the mid-northern constellation Canes Venatici. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain in 1781, and catalogued by Charles Messier. M97, M108 and a gaggle of other galaxies. I’ve recently been concentrating on framing multiple principal objects in the same image… 86% moon from 2/27 along with a close up on the Copernicus crater. This crater is approximately 93km in diameter and 3km deep. The debris rays stretch up to 800km from the center of the crater. Some more SeeStar pics, the moon & sun from this afternoon, and the sun from two days ago. Spent some time with the my SeeStar yesterday. Captured the sun with some very faint features, First Quarter Moon, and M37. M37 is an open cluster in the constellation Auriga.
