Welcome to GO ASTRONOMY (go-astronomy.com).

**NEW VIDEOS EACH MON AND THU**

When you look up at the night sky,
you may find the familiar outline of
stars that mark the constellations.

But there are celestial wonders there that
cannot be seen with the naked eye. Magnificent
star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies that
lie studded against the vast cosmic backdrop.

Some of these objects lie in our Milky Way galaxy,
others far beyond our local group of galaxies.
Each image moves you out further, both in space and in time.

The speed of light is a humbling experience.
By the time the photons have reached your eye,
the telescope lens, or camera sensor,
they may have traveled many millions of years.
These messengers bring an image back in time,
a ghost snapshot of the distant past.

There is no grander endeavor than to study and comprehend the universe.
For our species, the future is literally looking up.

    Wonderful. Would like to see Cepheus and the clouds of IC 1396 next to Mu Cephei, the Supergiant Garnet Star. Plus the massive V-V Cephei red Supergiant. If Mu Cephei is so big it would be out past the orbit of Jupiter the V-V Cephei Red Supergiant could nearly reach reach Saturn. An excellent constellation and visible year round if you live above 38 degrees North. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_Cephei#/media/File:Star-sizes.jpg

    For all Star Trek fans out there, the Constellation Cetus contains the star system Epsilon Ceti, where the fictional pleasure planet known as Risa (Epsilon Ceti B II), as well as the "Briar Patch" (in actuality, the Skull Nebula) from the movie "Star Trek: Insurrection", are located. LLAP!!

    Let's change the stars. What I mean is, get the IAU to, OFFICIALLY, make a new constellation. My idea for changing the stars includes Orion, Taurus and Pleiades (Subaru). Figure it's time to put something up there that's relevant to us, don't you think? Take Orion's belt and Betelgeuse becomes the head with a baseball hat. The 3 stars of Orion's belt make up the 3 fat belt loops on a baseball uniform. Below the belt are two legs bending at the knee. Saiph is the back foot and Rigel is the front foot. The feet aligning perfectly under the bent knees. The spear pointing at "Subaru" is the bat being swung and "Pleiades" is the baseball flying away after being hit. Bellatrix is the hand that let go of the bat and Aldebaran of Taurus is the tip. Put it all together and you get, "THE ALL-STAR." In my case, I see a left-handed batter and I imagine a "7" on the jersey. Which makes him, "Mickey." (As it should be ;-) But you can put any number you want, making, "THE ALL-STAR," any player you want. It'd be wrong of me to not, at least, try. This is me, trying. Pass it on, please and thank you. Don't worry, where I come from, crazy is a compliment.

    Some were a little over processed, but yea, that's what wide field looks like. I prefer the Pleiades with less nebulosity like with a 60 second exposure. Eye of the beholder, just like the stars to shine through.

    I think M77 / Cetus A got swapped with NGC1156 here? NGC1156 appears to be near Aries, and isn't listed in the description notes, whereas Cetus A is but isn't shown. Thought I'd let you know in case it wasn't intentional!
