#camelopardalis — Public Fediverse posts

While we're talking about old multi-hyphenate guys we met in this week's episode...

I couldn't find a picture of Pieter van den Keere -- whose globe popularized the newfangled constellation, but I did find this... *interesting* (upsetting) engraving he published...

So, you're welcome, I guess. Back to #camelopardalis astrophotography tomorrow!

Time for a midweek break from #astrophotography from our #constellation of the #month #Camelopardalis to show you Petrus Plancius!

Who is Petrus Plancius? Another of the multi-hyphenate astronomers of the 1600s, who we met in this week's episode!

#IC342: Hidden #Galaxy in #Camelopardalis
#Astronomy #Picture of the Day

https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap260108.html

#APOD

Comparing the same part of the autumn Milky Way in blue and near-infrared light.

The first photo is in near-infrared, and the second is blue (from last night).

Near-infrared is less affected by interstellar dust and can 'see into' thick dust more than blue light.

This is a continuation of:

#NewMexico #Photography #Astrophotography #Astronomy #Dust #Filter #Blue #Constellation #Camelopardalis #Perseus #Monochrome #Infrared

Gazing into the abyss of the autumn Milky Way between Perseus and Camelopardalis.

This monochrome image was taken in blue light, which accentuates the presence of interstellar dust.

The first image was plate solved, and you can see the results here:
https://nova.astrometry.net/user_images/14326291#annotated

The second image is a crop of the first image, centered on the darkest dust clouds where stars are almost completely absent...at least in blue light. (Infrared would be a different matter.)

The darkest clouds are Barnard nebulae 9, 11, 12, and 13.

The 3rd and 4th graphics show some objects in the frame, and the location of the photo in the larger context of the autumn sky.

#PhotoOfTheDay: #Hubble Images a Peculiar Spiral

A beautiful but skewed spiral galaxy dazzles in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image.

The galaxy, called Arp 184 or NGC 1961, sits about 190 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation #Camelopardalis (The Giraffe).

NGC 1501 Blue Oyster Nebula

The Blue Oyster is a planetary nebula, representing an aging star that has shed its outer layers. Unlike the other planetary nebula, however, the central star of the Blue Oyster is not a typical white dwarf, but has a
spectra more like a Wolf-Rayet Star.  In photographs, the magnitude 14.5 central star suggests a pearl inside a blue oyster.

IC 3568 Lemon Slice Nebula

Magnitude 12.3 planetary nebula located 4,500 light-years away in the constellation Camelopardalis. It was discovered on August 31, 1900 by the American astronomer Robert Grant Aitken while using Lick Observatory's 12" Clark Refractor. This was confirmed with the observatory's 36" Refractor the next night.
