The Crab Nebula (also called M1, NGC 1952, Taurus A and Taurus X-1) is a plerion-type supernova remnant. It is the remnant of supernova SN 1054, observed and documented as a star visible in daylight by Chinese and Arab astronomers Continue Reading
The Laguna Nebula (also known as Messier 8, Messier 8, M8 or NGC 6523), is an emission nebula (specifically it is a Region H II) located in the constellation of Sagittarius. It is approximately 5,000 light-years away. It was discovered Continue Reading
The Trifida Nebula (also known as Messier 20 and NGC 6514) is an H II region in the constellation Sagittarius. It was first catalogued in 1764 by the French astronomer Charles Messier. The name “Trifid”, coined by astronomer John Herschel, Continue Reading
NGC 2244 (also known as Caldwell 50) is an open cluster in the Rosette Nebula, located in the constellation Unicorn. This cluster has several stars of the spectral type O, super hot stars that generate large amounts of radiation and Continue Reading
The Pinwheel Galaxy (also known as Messier 101 or NGC 5457) is a spiral galaxy 25 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain on March 27, 1781, who subsequently communicated his discovery to Continue Reading
The Andromeda Galaxy, also known as Spiral Galaxy M31, Messier 31 or NGC 224, is a spiral galaxy with a diameter of two hundred and twenty thousand light years (as far as its galactic halo is concerned) and about one Continue Reading
The Ring Nebula (also known as the Lyra Annular Nebula, Planetary Nebula M57, Messier 57, M57 or NGC 6720) is a prototypical planetary nebula located in the constellation Lyra. It is one of the best known nebulae frequently used as Continue Reading
The Veil Nebula is a cloud of hot, ionized gas. It is the visible part of the Cygnus Loop, also known as the W78 radio source, or Sharpless 103. It is a very extensive nebula and is usually divided into Continue Reading
NGC 2359 is an emission nebula in the constellation Canis Major located just over 8 degrees from Sirius (α Canis Majoris). Its unusual shape, similar to the helmet of a Viking warrior, has led to it being also known as Continue Reading
NGC 7635 is an emission nebula, an H II region, in the constellation Cassiopeia, near the open cluster M52. It has originated from the stellar wind of the central star SAO 20575 (BD+60 2522), of apparent magnitude 8.7. Due to Continue Reading
