Das ist #NGC281 - der Pacman Nebel im Sternbild Kassiopeia, benannt wegen seiner Ähnlichkeit zum Videospiel-Charakter. Er befindet sich 9200 Lichtjahre entfernt von uns im Perseus Spiralarm der Milchstraße. In seinem Zentrum befindet sich #IC1590 - ein offenes Cluster junger Sterne, die das umegebende Gas zum leuchten bringen.

Endlich mal wieder klarer Himmel! Mein Ziel für die Nacht auf Samstag war die Region um den Elephants Trunk Nebula, IC1369.

Es ist schon ein bisschen spät für dieses Ziel, aber der Pferdekopfnebel gehört zu meinen Lieblingsobjekten und ich wollte es gern noch versuchen.

Der große Orion Nebel ist nicht nur mein liebstes Objekt am Winterhimmel, er ist auch der Grund, aus dem ich mit der Astrofotografie begonnen habe.

One of my absolute favourite deep sky objects: Messier 81 & 82

Messier 81 and 82 are a dynamic pair of galaxies in the constellation Ursa Major. Gravitationally bound to one another, they dance amidst gaseous filaments of neutral hydrogen stripped from each other from past close encounters.

Messier 81, also known as Bode’s Galaxy, is a bright spiral galaxy proudly twirling its arms around its pale amber nucleus. It’s the largest in its group.

Messier 82, the smaller of the pair, has absorbed so much interstellar gas that it’s led to a profusion of star-forming activity within its galactic nucleus. This activity has given rise to a strong galactic wind that spews knotty filaments of neutral hydrogen and nitrogen from its centre, partially obscuring the brilliance of its nucleus. Its distorted shape is a direct result of a close encounter with its partner Messier 81.

I would be remiss not to mention that there’s a third member of this galactic dance: the small elliptical galaxy NGC 3077. Nothing more than a faint smudge a bit above M81, NGC 3077 is just as connected by those fine gaseous filaments and the allure of each other’s gravity.

The Messier 81 group is among the brightest galactic groups in the night sky and are a favourite among amateur astronomers. If you’re ever in the northern hemisphere and have a friend with a good-sized telescope, peering through the eyepiece at this duo is a sight to behold. It’s a favourite of mine whenever I bring out my telescope on a dark winter night.

Dieses Set hatte ich schon gelöscht - das massive Mondlicht hat die Aufnahme komplett überlagert. Aber ich konnte es doch nicht lassen und mit viel Arbeit ließ sich noch eine vorzeigbare Aufnahme herstellen.

Flaming Star Nebula

Zu guter Letzt in meiner Serie von letzter Woche kommt nun ein Objekt, das eher selten gezeigt wird - Sh2-171. Zusammen mit Sh2-170 (der rote "Punkt" links) ähnelt es für mich einem kosmischen Fragezeichen, mit einer Menge Dunkelnebel und interessanter Struktur im Inneren.
