M33 in HaLRGB

Post by KuriousGeorge » Wed Oct 12, 2016 2:25 pm

The Triangulum Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 3 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Triangulum. It is catalogued as Messier 33 or NGC 598, and is sometimes informally referred to as the Pinwheel Galaxy, a nickname it shares with Messier 101. The Triangulum Galaxy is the third-largest member of the Local Group of galaxies, which includes the Milky Way, the Andromeda Galaxy and about 44 other smaller galaxies. It is one of the most distant permanent objects that can be viewed with the naked eye.

With a diameter of about 60,000 light-years, the Triangulum galaxy is the third largest member of the Local Group of galaxies. It may be a gravitationally bound companion of the Andromeda Galaxy. Triangulum may be home to 40 billion stars, compared to 400 billion for the Milky Way, and 1 trillion stars for Andromeda.

Hello.
I found this image in my old database of pictures.
It is a conjunction taken after one night of astronomical observation, when i arrived at my home.

About location:
Baze Hour is the most ancient fire temple of Iran which was built during the Parthian Empire
which ruled Iran from 249 B.C. – 226 A.D. The plan of this fire temple is a square, and its
ceiling is a dome supported by four arched pillars. This building is located north-east of Iran, 45
km south-east of Mashhad, the center of Khurasan province. From a structural point of view, it
seems primary and elementary in technique. There are not any fil-pushes or squinches which are
required to change the square plan to a circular one, but rather there are five or six wooden
beams which change the square plan to a circle. These beams transfer the weight of the dome to
the stone pillars in the four corners. The walls under this dome are very thick, and the platforms
are not equal. Evidence shows that there are, yet, a lot of mysteries about this fire temple.

NGC 7023 Iris Nebula

NGC 7023 is a reflection nebula, known by name as Iris Nebula. These clouds of interstellar dust and gas are located at a distance of 1,300 years light from us, located in the constellation of Cepheus. Inside the nebula, the nebular dusty material surrounds a hot young star named ODS 19158.

SAO 19158 is the cause of the light reflected in the dust particles that surround it, making the predominant color is blue, characteristic of dust grains reflecting starlight. Central filaments of the dusty clouds glow with a faint reddish photoluminescence as some dust grains convert invisible ultraviolet radiation from stars in visible red light. Infrared observations indicate that this nebula may contain complex carbon molecules known as PAHs.
