All about 35 million light years away in the constellation Leo the Lion.May 26, 2022 NGC 6207, Spiral Galaxy in Hercules220 viewsNGC 6207 is the small oval object on the right side of the photo, just below the centerline. It is seen nearly edge-on and is about 30 million light-years from Earth. It is somewhat outshone by M13, the large globular cluster on the left, which is of course much closer, at 22,200 light-years from Earth. May 24, 2022 NGC 4244, the Silver Needle Galaxy in Canes Venatici226 viewsAnother "needle" edge-on galaxy, member of a group of galaxies associated with Messier 94 in the Virgo supercluster; about 14 million light-years from Earth.May 24, 2022 NGC 3521, "flocculent" spiral galaxy in Leo257 viewsNGC 3521 is termed a "flocculent" spiral galaxy because it has patches or clumps of stars breaking up the continuity of the spiral arms. Self-propagating star formation is thought to account for the patchiness. The galaxy lies about 26 million light-years away from us.May 24, 2022 Messier 58 and the Siamese Twins226 viewsM58 is a barred spiral galaxy about 62 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo. The Siamese Twins, NGC 4567 and 4568, are colliding spiral galaxies about 60 million light-years away, in the early stages of merging; they are also nicknamed the Butterfly Galaxies.May 24, 2022 Messier 61 - Face-on Barred Spiral Galaxy in Virgo241 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.May 24, 2022 NGC 4631, The Whale Galaxy215 viewsA barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici. Contains a central starburst - a region of intense star formation. The "calf" - the nearby dwarf galaxy - is NGC 4527.May 14, 2022 NGC 5139 - Omega Centauri Cluster247 viewsGlobular cluster in Centaurus, 17,090 light-years away. The largest-known globular cluster in the Milky Way, estimated to contain approximately 10 million stars, and a total mass equivalent to 4 million solar masses.May 13, 2022 NGC 3115 - Lenticular Galaxy in Sextans278 viewsFormerly thought to be an elliptical galaxy, now considered a lenticular (lens-shaped) galaxy because it has a disk and a central bulge of stars, but no discernible spiral structure. Distance from Earth is about 32 million light years. It is several times larger than the Milky Way galaxy.Mar 27, 2022 IC443 - Jellyfish Nebula217 viewsA galactic supernova remnant in Gemini, about 6000 light-years away.Feb 09, 2022 Medusa Nebula (Sharpless 2-274)227 viewsPlanetary Nebula in Gemini. Discovered in 1955, first thought to be a supernova remnant, but Soviet astronomers in 1971 determined it to be a planetary nebula.Feb 09, 2022 257 files on 22 page(s) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 - 22 Debug Info  Debug Output: show / hide Select All USER: ------------------ Array ( [ID] => f7ddd5250d9eec45f4975c3758481f03 [am] => 1 [liv] => Array ( [0] => 1221 [1] => 74 [2] => 1964 [3] => 587 [4] => 1232 ) ) ========================== USER DATA: ------------------ Array ( [user_id] => 0 [user_name] => Guest [groups] => Array ( [0] => 3 ) [group_quota] => 0 [can_rate_pictures] => 1 [can_send_ecards] => 0 [can_post_comments] => 0 [can_upload_pictures] => 0 [can_create_albums] => 0 [pub_upl_need_approval] => 1 [priv_upl_need_approval] => 1 [access_level] => 3 [disk_max] => 0 [disk_min] => 0 [has_admin_access] => 0 [group_name] => Guests [can_create_public_albums] => 0 [can_see_all_albums] => 0 [group_id] => 3 [allowed_albums] => Array ( ) ) ========================== Queries: ------------------ Array ( [0] => SELECT name, value FROM cm_config [include/init.inc.php:177] (0.4 ms) [1] => SELECT * FROM cm_plugins ORDER BY priority [include/plugin_api.inc.php:48] (0.25 ms) [2] => SELECT user_id, time FROM `i5493328_cm1`.cm_sessions WHERE session_id = 'bdc179c7a57d5a16dc8b4d476f93d404' [bridge/coppermine.inc.php:241] (0.21 ms) [3] => SELECT MAX(group_quota) AS disk_max, MIN(group_quota) AS disk_min, MAX(can_rate_pictures) AS can_rate_pictures, MAX(can_send_ecards) AS can_send_ecards, MAX(can_post_comments) AS can_post_comments, MAX(can_upload_pictures) AS can_upload_pictures, MAX(can_create_albums) AS can_create_albums, MAX(has_admin_access) AS has_admin_access, MAX(access_level) AS access_level, MIN(pub_upl_need_approval) AS pub_upl_need_approval, MIN( priv_upl_need_approval) AS priv_upl_need_approval FROM cm_usergroups WHERE group_id in (3) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:350] (0.22 ms) [4] => SELECT group_name FROM cm_usergroups WHERE group_id= 3 [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:362] (0.15 ms) [5] => SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cm_categorymap WHERE group_id in (3) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:375] (0.18 ms) [6] => SELECT aid FROM cm_albums WHERE moderator_group IN (3) [include/init.inc.php:271] (0.15 ms) [7] => SELECT lang_id FROM cm_languages WHERE enabled='YES' [include/init.inc.php:334] (0.61 ms) [8] => DELETE FROM cm_banned WHERE expiry < '2025-10-12 09:09:28' [include/init.inc.php:448] (1.16 ms) [9] => SELECT null FROM cm_banned WHERE ('216.73.216.211' LIKE ip_addr OR '' LIKE ip_addr ) AND brute_force=0 LIMIT 1 [include/init.inc.php:464] (0.48 ms) [10] => SELECT aid FROM cm_albums WHERE (1 AND visibility != 0 AND visibility != 10000 AND visibility NOT IN (3)) [include/functions.inc.php:1110] (0.32 ms) [11] => SELECT name FROM cm_categories WHERE cid = 2 [thumbnails.php:157] (0.15 ms) [12] => SELECT rgt, lft, depth FROM cm_categories WHERE cid = 2 LIMIT 1 [include/functions.inc.php:44] (0.21 ms) [13] => SELECT cid FROM cm_categories WHERE lft BETWEEN 3 AND 8 [include/functions.inc.php:49] (0.16 ms) [14] => SELECT keyword FROM cm_albums WHERE category IN (2, 12, 13) [include/functions.inc.php:57] (0.19 ms) [15] => SELECT p.cid, p.name FROM cm_categories AS c, cm_categories AS p WHERE c.lft BETWEEN p.lft AND p.rgt AND c.cid = 2 ORDER BY p.lft [include/functions.inc.php:2940] (0.16 ms) [16] => SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cm_pictures AS r INNER JOIN cm_albums AS a ON a.aid = r.aid INNER JOIN cm_categories AS c2 ON c2.cid = category WHERE (c2.lft BETWEEN 3 AND 8) AND (1 OR keywords like '%27telp%' OR keywords like '%27telp%' OR keywords like '%27telp%' OR keywords like '%27telp%') AND r.aid NOT IN (12, 51) AND approved = 'YES' [include/functions.inc.php:1614] (0.2 ms) [17] => SELECT r.pid, r.aid, filepath, filename, url_prefix, pwidth, pheight, filesize, ctime, r.title, r.keywords, r.votes, pic_rating, hits, caption, r.owner_id, user1, user2, user3, user4 FROM cm_pictures AS r INNER JOIN cm_albums AS a ON a.aid = r.aid INNER JOIN cm_categories AS c2 ON c2.cid = category WHERE (c2.lft BETWEEN 3 AND 8) AND (1 OR keywords like '%27telp%' OR keywords like '%27telp%' OR keywords like '%27telp%' OR keywords like '%27telp%') AND r.aid NOT IN (12, 51) AND approved = 'YES' ORDER BY ctime DESC, pid DESC LIMIT 96 ,12 [include/functions.inc.php:1630] (10.16 ms) [18] => SELECT extension, mime, content, player FROM cm_filetypes [include/functions.inc.php:5952] (0.29 ms) ) ========================== GET : ------------------ Array ( [album] => lastup [cat] => 2 [page] => 9 ) ========================== POST : ------------------ Array ( ) ========================== COOKIE : ------------------ Array ( [a520716e4e1a802c3b699f97dd5ac36c] => eeb9bb98b8644e2efd69908fa938f9f9 [cpg16x_data] => YTozOntzOjI6IklEIjtzOjMyOiJmN2RkZDUyNTBkOWVlYzQ1ZjQ5NzVjMzc1ODQ4MWYwMyI7czoyOiJhbSI7aToxO3M6MzoibGl2IjthOjU6e2k6MDtzOjQ6IjEyMjEiO2k6MTtzOjI6Ijc0IjtpOjI7czo0OiIxOTY0IjtpOjM7czozOiI1ODciO2k6NDtzOjQ6IjEyMzIiO319 ) ==========================
