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
To some, this nebula looks like the head of a fish. But this photograph actually shows the bright gas and clouds of darkened dust from IC 1795, a star-forming region in the northern constellation Cassiopeia. The nebula’s colors were created Continue Reading
NGC 281 is a busy star formation workshop. Its main features include a small open cluster of stars, a diffuse emission nebula with red glow, large trails of dark dust and gas, as well as dense clumps of gas and Continue Reading
The Omega Nebula (also known as the Swan Nebula, M17 and NGC 6618) is an HII region in the constellation Sagittarius. It was discovered by Philippe Loys de Chéseaux in 1745 and catalogued by Charles Messier in 1764. The Omega Continue Reading
In the central regions of the IC 1805 emission nebula, cosmic clouds seem to draw fantastic figures. The clouds are sculpted by stellar winds and radiation from the massive, hot stars in Melotte 15, the nebula’s newborn star cluster. The Continue Reading
The Crescent Nebula (NGC 6888), also called the Crescent Nebula or Caldwell 27, is an emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus, located 6° southwest of Sadr (γ Cygni). It is located about 4700 light-years away from Earth. Formed by the Continue Reading
