all day today I was doing an assignment on astronomical exercises where I had to make a star map of any object. I made a map of the open star cluster Beehive M44

I'm very tired, but I like the result and I want to print this and hang it above my desk

Smoking Companions or Messier 82 & 81

Bode and Cigar Galaxy or M81 & M82 in the constellation Ursa Major about 12 million light years away from us.

M81 (left) is a Hubble-type spiral galaxy, like about 10% of all spiral galaxies.

M82 passed its galactic neighbor M81 about 500 million years ago and this significantly increased the star formation rate in M82 (starburst). As a result, it is one of the brightest galaxies in the infrared and also in the radio wavelength range.

Almost 15hours of data were used to process this picture.

La luna me enseñó que también hay belleza en la oscuridad, que incluso cuando no me siento completa, soy suficiente.
