Home > Astronomical Images Most viewed - Astronomical Images Messier 81 and 82662 viewsThese two galaxies are found in the constellation Ursa Major and are about 12 million light-years away. The larger one, M81, is also known as Bode's Nebula; the smaller is known as the Cigar Galaxy, although it's a funny kind of cigar because it looks like it's lit in the center rather than at one end. Maybe it's an exploding cigar. Yes - that's it! It's a starburst galaxy, with an abnormally high rate of star formation in the center! IC 1805 - The Heart Nebula in Cassiopeia662 viewsIC 1805, the Heart Nebula, lies 7,500 light-years away from Earth in the Perseus arm of the Milky Way. It is an emission nebula, drawing its radiance from Melotte 15, the cluster of bright stars in the center of this image. NGC 7822 - Star-forming region in Cepheus662 viewsIncludes the emission nebula Sharpless 171 and the star cluster Berkeley 59. Around 3000 light-years from Earth. M18 and M17 together660 viewsTwo Messier objects - M18, a sparse open cluster, at left, 4230 light-years away; and M17, the Swan or Omega Nebula, at right, 5 to 6 thousand light-years distant, both in Sagittarius. M77 and Friends657 viewsBarred spiral galaxy in Cetus (left side of picture), about 47 million light-years from Earth. A Type 2 Seyfert galaxy with an active nucleus. The spiral galaxy at right is NGC 1055. The spiral galaxy NGC1072 is also seen as a tiny oval near the bottom center of the frame. M17 - The Swan Nebula656 viewsIn the constellation Sagittarius. Also known as the Omega or Horseshoe Nebula. A prolific star-forming region, lying 5000-6000 years from Earth. M14 - Globular cluster in Ophiuchus656 viewsAlso known as NGC 6402. 30,000 light-years distant. Contains several hundred thousand stars. Markarian's Chain of Galaxies655 viewsA chain of galaxies in the Virgo Cluster, named after a Soviet astronomer. Right to left: M84, M86, NGC 4477, NGC 4473, NGC4461, NGC 4458, NGC4438 and NGC4435. Messier 13 - Hercules Globular Cluster653 views145 light-years in diameter, consisting of several hundred thousand stars, this is the most famous globular cluster in the Northern Hemisphere and is about 22,000 miles from Earth. Messier 39 - Open Cluster in Cygnus652 viewsAn open cluster in the constellation Cygnus the Swan; distance 1010 light-years. As good as it gets652 viewsThis image, captured near the end of totality, shows the rominences as well as the incipient diamond ring, Pre-Totality 8652 viewsAnd over Sicily the air Still flashing with the landward gulls And loom and slowly disappear The sails above the shadowy hulls 257 files on 22 page(s) 1 -
