M95 and M96673 viewsTwo Spiral Galaxies in Leo, captured in the same frame

Dragon's Tooth735 viewsFourth Contact (end of post-totality partial phase) will occur at 8:34:23 local time, with the Sun well below the horizon.

The Horsehead Nebula in Orion723 viewsThe Horsehead Nebula, Barnard 33, is a dark nebula, silhouetted against the bright emission nebula IC 434. The large blue object to the left of IC 434 is a reflection nebula, NGC 2023. They are all found near the star Alnitak, the easternmost star in Orion's belt, which is off the frame to the right, and are 1400 light-years from Earth.

IC 1848 - The Soul Nebula781 viewsAn emission nebula in Cassiopeia, eastern neighbor of the Heart Nebula, IC 1805. About 6,500 light-years away, it spans 100 light-years, and is too big at that distance to fit into my telescope's field of view, so only part of it is seen here.

Pre-Totality 4712 viewsAnd strange at Ecbatan the trees
Take leaf by leaf the evening strange
The flooding dark about their knees
The mountains over Persia change

Going, going...683 viewsWe didn't get to see the end of the transit because it occurred after sunset in our location.

Messier 39 - Open Cluster in Cygnus651 viewsAn open cluster in the constellation Cygnus the Swan; distance 1010 light-years.

Totality minus 41 minutes759 viewsC2 - 41 min 16 sec
