Explanation:
What's visible in the night sky during this time of year?
To help illustrate the answer, a beautiful land, cloud, and skyscape was captured
earlier this month over
NeuchБtel,
Switzerland.
Visible in the foreground were the snow covered cliffs of the amphitheater shaped
Creux du Van, as well as
distant trees, and town-lit clouds.
Visible in the night sky (at midnight) were galaxies including the
long arch of the central band of our
Milky Way Galaxy, the
Andromeda galaxy (M31), and the
Triangulum galaxy
(M33.
Star clusters visible included NGC 752,
M34,
M35,
M41,
the double cluster, and
the Beehive (M44).
Nebulas visible included the Orion Nebula
(M42),
NGC 7822,
IC 1396, the
Rosette Nebula,
the Flaming Star Nebula, the
California Nebula, the
Heart and
Soul Nebulas, and the
Pacman Nebula.
Rolling your cursor over the
above image will bring up labels for
all of these.
But the above
wide angle sky image captured even more sky wonders.
What other nebulas
can you find in the above image?
