Someone needs to do a visual astronomy version of this. Most galaxies are very dim but star clusters are much prettier unless you have a massive scope

34:36 "The star could've done better when it blew up" and all the shade towards globs 😂

For visual through an eyepiece I think globular clusters are great, especially when you take the time to just sit and examine the individual stars. However, in pictures, some of them could be just "meh" while others are pretty cool.

Fun video! My grievence is that I would rank globular clusters over open clusters (exception: Pleiades) any day of the week. Although if you've seen one glob, you've seen them all. And elliptical galaxies with little or no structure would go in the F tier. But that's all personal preference, not objective criteria, so there's no point arguing about it.

I didn't realize I had distaste for celestial objects until I photographed M17. It's just so blah, especially when compared to its neighbors. The steady stream of sh*t talking star clusters cracked me up 😆

Yeah M17 is so bright it is washed out tbh. Not very interesting

Awesome presentation!!! Thanks for your work.

Because of this video, I spent my last weekend imaging all reachable globular clusters with my Seestar telescope, dedicating 10 minutes to each cluster, and believe me, it was fun to do it! what I learned from that night is that each globular cluster has its own unique character, unlike the pictures in this video where you feel they all look the same. Some clusters, like M13, are bright, while others are faint or obscured by interstellar dust, giving them a reddish or orange hue. There are large clusters like M22 and smaller ones like M75 which I learned because it is too distant and probably belongs to another satellite galaxy, there are clusters with some being densely concentrated and others more spread out. The stars in each cluster create unique structures; for instance, M5 reminded me of a spider with arms of stars extending from it. I love globular clusters because they offer me a glimpse into the structure of our Milky Way, also they are not affected that much by light pollution like galaxies, and they are often the first objects I show to any of my guests with my telescope because they are bright and can produce clear images in just one minute, unlike other faint DSOs that require much longer exposure times.

M5 looks like a lotus flower and is very pretty.

NGC top 100 list would be awesome. No need to go through everything. Like most other viewers, I'm looking for the best objects to add to my viewing list. Thanks!

Fun idea! I loved it. More Kitty!

7:25 "it's a slew over object, like a fly over state" 😂

I would love it if you did a list of your S Tier NGC or a limited list of them.

I think you pulled the trigger on M46 too quickly. I think the embedded Planetary Nebula would spare it from F tier. Enjoyed the video.

That is definitely a shoulder cat.

26:44 I like how you said the word "Galaxy"

Thanks for moving these objects

Awesome! This template looks a lot similar to the analysis of Dota 2 heroes after every patch. Do you play Dota 2 by any chance?

yup, I mostly agree! I just reckon I like galaxies a bit more than you do :) so many interesting objects are not Messier objects ... LDN, ARP, a bunch of NGCs ... I could make it simpler to classify... say of the ARP ... only arp273 is visible now in the sky in the northern emisphere ... cause I tried to find it and shoot it :) or you can make a selection by say FL required to image ... North South ... by seasons, etc ... we could make it in an spreadsheet with coordinates and such for easy access... etc ...

I feel like M24 deserves an A tier. With proper editing, i.e. by properly differentiating between hotter blue star cloud and background older stars, it gives such a nice color balance. This object is quite user-friendly, too, being in a bright part of the Milky Way. And I feel like it is definitely not less interesting than Omega nebula. Not to mention all kinds of nebulae present nearby. But yeah, waiting for the NGC tier list

M1: not a planetary, right? Supernova remnant.

I'm doing an unusual M marathon trying to spy as many M objects with my naked eye,my 2x40 wide field binoculars and 5x10 Zeiss Mini Quick monocular and about two weeks back I got M27 in the 5x10.The 2x40 were inconclusive as they kept steaming up as it was rather cold then.

I was going to have a grievance, but then you moved M109 to the A list where it so obviously belongs!! ✌😁

Yeah that's right! That nebula is NGC 2438 but it only appears to be part of the cluster and is actually unrelated as the nebula and the cluster do not share the same radial velocity.

@@M1551NGN0 Well, you can't image it without it being there, and he mentioned other unrelated objects in the field of other photos, so I though it was worth a mention. I've imaged this many times, and have completed an imaging run of the Messier catalog. This is one of my favs!

@@AstroDragon33 you are correct! Also there are actually two nebulae in the line of sight of M46 one is Calabash nebula. Its star has the same radial velocity as the cluster that means it was a part of the cluster. It's wholesome to find missing links between stars and their former/current families. I want to be an Astrophysicist when I grow up.

M10 and M12 are close enough together to fit in the same frame with my Askar FMA230 refractor and ASI1600mm camera. Might merit a small bump for having two Messier globs in one picture. Or not.

Best globular cluster is in the Caldwell catalogue, C80 the Omega Centauri cluster and it probably isn't a globular, but a dwarf galaxy with a black hole in its center. I'm guessing he's never looked at a glob cluster with a 10" Dob or a 9.25 or bigger SCT with the right eyepiece the way he thinks these DSOs are boring.

How about a Caldwell catalog tier list, should be manageable

clusters is like when i put dandruff on a black pillow cover.

m19 is cool because of how elongated it is

Cant believe i had to press dislike, but from a messier catalog tier list, the least i can expect is someone talking who ACTUALLY know every messier object... I would never do a tier list about isopods if i dont even know wtf they are... This video feels like: GUY REACTS TO EVERY MESSIER OBJECT IMAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME

So you like the path of least resistance 🤔.

I disagree with your low ranking of globular clusters.

Do you already made a Caldwell tier list?

globs..yeah boring..just like photographing M31 like tens of thousands of others have already done...unless you happen to spend a bit more time imaging it with an OIII filter and doing some processing tricks...ya never know what might pop up in an image right? ;) if you get tired of the nebs, pic a younger glob and image it using an OIII or H filter...could be something no one has seen before. Lightening can strike twice. just saying
