M87: Elliptical Galaxy with Jet

This picture shows a lot of stars, that are not really stars but more like spiral galaxies it is described as majestic winding arms of little stars, or gas, and made by dust rotate in a flat disk like a bulging galactic nucleus swirl. on the other hand these elliptical galaxies seem to be very much like each other. They all are lacking the gas and the dust necessary to form new stars and they are randomly swarming older stars in the area this is what form the ellipsoidal or oblong shape. Still other galaxies are also able to be seen in this picture like the large Virgo Cluster that we can see also called NGC 4478 that is in the center and also NGC 4476 which is close to the right edge.

Calm, Cresent Moon, and Venus

This picture show the Moon and Venus and how they formed a beautiful close pair in the west after sunset which is this picture, this also shows a scene enjoyed by a skygazer and many more all over the world. The view of this conjunction is from the beautiful skis of from Sweden, at the lake Vallentuna that appears to be very calm and that also lies in the front of the sunset with lots of still colors that are slowly fading behind the treeline. The little crescent Moon's lit by the sun and forms the moon's crescent this is shown to be very bright, but its outline can be seen by Earthshine the light from the earth. This is a not so much astronomical picture but more show the beauty of science.

Northern and Southern Owls
In this picture we can see two balls of blue and red circles that appear to be the same shape. This is described as two glaring owl eyes glaring at Earth.
The circle to the left is M97 and is in the common constellation Ursa Major and even more commonly known as northern hemisphere as Owl Nebula, ans to the right we can see the visual counterpart of this same nebula, this is what we would really see if we looked into a telescope. They are about 2,000 times the width of Neptune's orbit. Nebula like this are only caused by the final phase in the life of the sun-like star.

The Antennae
This picture looks beautiful it looks like a cloud in the sky. But this is actually about 60 million light-yrs from Earth. And in this cloud there is really two large galaxies collided!!! These galaxies are NGC 4038 and NGC 4039. The act of the galaxies colliding goes from billions of years or even longer, no one knows because it no one has been around to observe that long. While this looks just like a cloud it is really about 500 thousand light-years long, a little longer than a cloud. This is an example of how things may look different than they really are in space.

two galaxy interacting

In this picture there are two galaxies that appear to be forming one, when in reality they are just passing by. There is one large galaxy and one relatively smaller one.

This picture has two galaxies that are farther apart than in the one on top but this one looks like the galaxy that is more spread out is "give" some of its self to the smaller one. This is the interaction of the two galaxy.

This picture looks to be one galaxy on its side and one facing us. The one on it's side looks to be cutting through the other one.
