Hickson 44, also known as the Leo Quartet, is a small group of galaxies in the constellation Leo at a distance of about 80 to 100 million light-years. Its most prominent members are NGC 3190, NGC 3193, NGC 3187, and…
The image shows the region around vdB 30, an entry in Sidney van den Bergh’s catalog of reflection nebulae. In this image, however, the typical blue reflection components are not the main focus. Instead, the large-scale structures of hydrogen (H-alpha)…
In the constellation Ursa Major, this image shows one of the most impressive galaxy groups in our local universe: M81, M82, and NGC 3077 – all about 12 million light-years away. These three galaxies are closely bound by gravity and…
IC 443, also known as the Jellyfish Nebula, is a supernova remnant in the constellation Gemini, located about 5,000 light-years from Earth. It was formed when a massive star exploded roughly 5,000 to 10,000 years ago. Today, we see the…
In the constellation Orion, just south of the belt star Alnitak, lies one of the most famous regions in the sky: the Horsehead and Flame Nebula complex. This image shows the reddish emission nebula IC 434 with the dark silhouette…
In the constellation Cassiopeia, the Soul Nebula IC 1848 is a vast H II region where young, massive stars flood the surrounding hydrogen gas with ultraviolet radiation, causing it to glow. This image was captured in the SHO palette, combining…
In the constellation Cassiopeia, this wide-field image captures two objects at very different distances: IC 63 (“Ghost of Cassiopeia”) – A compact emission and reflection nebula illuminated by the bright star γ Cassiopeiae, surrounded by extended hydrogen gas and dust…
In the constellation Auriga, this wide-field image shows the emission nebulae IC 405 – Flaming Star Nebula, IC 410 – Tadpole Nebula and IC 417 – Spider Nebula. The image also includes the star clusters NGC 1912 and NGC 1960.…
