M8, The Lagoon Nebula in Sagittarius620 viewsAn emission nebula lying 4000-6000 years from Earth. Also designated NGC 6523. An HII star-forming region. Contains the open cluster NGC 6530.

A different view687 viewsAn early pre-totality eyepiece-projection shot, about 20 minutes after First Contact.

Totality 2653 viewsIf you look closely, a prominence can be seen at approximately 9 o'clock on the disk of the eclipsed Sun.

The last glimmer660 viewsAbout 30 seconds before Second Contact.

Messier 61 - Face-on Barred Spiral Galaxy in Virgo637 viewsOne of the largest members of the Virgo Cluster, M61 is a starburst galaxy, i.e. it has an unusually high rate of star formation, with an active galactic nucleus that features a massive nuclear star cluster and a supermassive black hole. It is about 53 million light-years away from Earth.

Pre-Totality 2636 viewsAnd here face down beneath the sun
And here upon earth’s noonward height
To feel the always coming on
The always rising of the night:

NGC 4725834 viewsA one-armed spiral galaxy in the constellation Coma Berenices, about 41 million light-years from Earth. This is a Seyfert galaxy, meaning that it has a very active nucleus; it is also a barred spiral and has a prominent ring structure. It is interacting with NGC 4747 in the upper left corner of the frame, resulting in severe distortion of both galaxies and producing the spectacular tidal tails seen with NGC 4747. The smaller spiral galaxy to the right of NGC 4725 is NGC 4712.

NGC 253 - The Silver Dollar Galaxy723 viewsSpiral galaxy in the constellation Sculptor.
