Hi, This is an image of the Hickson 44 galaxy group. It is a group of four galaxies about 80 million light years away in the constellation Leo. The four galaxies are NGC 3289/90, which is the large sp

NGC 2326 (UGC 3681, PGC 20218 and others) is a barred spiral located approximately 274 million light-years away in Lynx. UGC 3687 (NGC 2326A, PGC 20237 and others) is the odd galaxy below and to the l

Hi all: NGC 2326 and NGC 2340 are two small, but interesting galaxies in the constellation Lynx. Numerous other galaxies populate the background: http://www.greggsastronomy.com/IMAGES/ngc2326-LRGB.jpg

Hi everyone: NGC 2859 is a really unusual galaxy in Leo Minor. Here is the Wikipedia description: "The morphological classification is (R)SB(r)0+, where the S0+ notation indicates a well-defined physi

NGC 3675 (UGC 6439, PGC 35164 and many others) is a flocculent spiral located approximately 60 million light-years away in Ursa Major. Luminance – 28x600s – 280 minutes – binned 1x1 RGB – 16:12:14x300

NGC1893 is an open cluster in the constellation Auriga. It is about 12,400 light years away. THe star cluster is embedded in the HII region IC410. Scope: Planewave CDK14 Mount: Planewave L350 on a wed

Hi all: NGC 3621 is a medium sized spiral galaxy in Hydra. It was a challenge to image because its declination of -32 only brought it about 25 degrees above the local horizon at the zenith: http://www

Arp 61 (top right quadrant) consists of UGC 3104 (PGC 15637 and others) and the smaller companion 2MASX J04363919-0217090 (PGC 213288) that appears to be interacting with it. Part of Arp’s ‘Spiral Gal

Arp 167 consists of NGC 2672 (UGC 4619, PGC 24790 and others) on the right and NGC 2673 (UGC 4620, PGC 24792 and others) on the left. Part of Arp’s ‘Galaxies – Diffuse Counter-Tails class’, these are

Hi, This is an image of NGC 925. It is a barred spiral galaxy about 30 million light years away in the constellation Triangulum. The spiral arm on the bottom of the image is stronger than the one at t

Hi all: In looking carefully at the image I posted earlier (NGC 3733, 3738, 3756), I noticed some unusual detail around NGC 3759 (just east of the bright star). I could only find one image online, a c

Hi all: There is a lot going on in this field that includes the galaxies NGC 3733, 3738 and 3756: http://www.greggsastronomy.com/IMAGES/ngc3733-LRGB.jpg NGC 3733 is the galaxy just above the 5th magni

This is a really nice field of galaxies located in Triangulum. See the annotated image link. Note that NGC 1062 is really the galaxy labeled PGC 10331. Luminance – 24x600s – 240 minutes – binned 1x1 R

Arp 141 (UGC 3730, VV 123 and others) is the result of the merger of spiral and elliptical galaxies. Part of Arp’s, ‘E and E-Like Galaxies – Material Emanating from E Galaxies,’ these are located appr

NGC 1169 (UGC 2503, PGC 11521 and others) is a spiral located approximately 116 million light-years away in Perseus. Luminance – 24x600s – 240 minutes – binned 1x1 RGB – 8x300s – 40 minutes each – bin

Hi everyone: NGC 2768 is an elliptical galaxy in Ursa Major; there are two other NGC objects in the field, NGC 2742 near the top and NGC 2726 in the lower right corner: http://www.greggsastronomy.com/

This ‘asteroid’ has now been confirmed with cometary activity and is much brighter than expected. I captured A/2021 F1 this morning through clouds. A/2021 F1 2022-01-29 - Animas NM 12:29:22 - 12:53:40

Hi all: NGC 2046 and UGC 6917 are a couple of diminutive galaxies in a field of faint fuzzies in Ursa Major http://www.greggsastronomy.com/IMAGES/ngc4026_UGC6917-LRGB.jpg NGC 2046 1.3X crop: http://ww
