This is Haleyโs Coronet! ๐๐๐
The interaction between the larger spiral galaxy and its dwarf galaxy have created plumes of dust around the duo. The process of the larger galaxy eating the smaller one is actually called galactic cannibalism (spooky)! ๐ป๐ป๐ป

Slooh just got a massive update so there are more quests - which means more collages of astrophotos!
Here is a collection of some of my best nebulae photos: theย Lagoon Nebula, Rho Ophiuchi, Horsehead Nebula, and Dumbbell Nebula! ๐๐ซ๐๐โจ
Released
Join Slooh for a special Star Party Live on Sunday, June 13th at 1 PM EST! โจโจโจ
The Slooh Ambassadors (which includes me) have been working on this Women are From Venus star party that hopes to encourage women to participate in astronomy! ๐๐๐
Jenny McFarlane will be discussing how she expands astronomy outreach at her planetarium! There will also be other talks made by other Slooh women who are passionate about space. ๐๐๐
All you need to do is to make a free account at Slooh.com and then watch the star party on the website! If you are a woman and would like to participate in the Zoom, send an email to paul@slooh.com for the Zoom passcode. Please let me know if you have any questions and I hope you can attend ๐๐๐
The Silver Coin Galaxy ๐
My favorite galaxy by far. This starburst spiral galaxy, also known as NGC 253, is undergoing massive star formation and thus is incredibly bright โจ

Hello everyone!
Thank you so much for all the support for my astrophotography blog! I just wanted to let you guys know that I have started a project and a blog about light pollution.
As an avid astrophotographer, light pollution has affected me in a variety of ways - most notably by messing up my pictures ๐
I attached the Project DeLight link to this post. Iโm also gathering data about outdoor light features across the world:ย https://forms.gle/UER8BtStqWktf2kn6ย - the form will only take about 1-2 minutes and Iโve already posted about the first batch of data in the DeLight blog.ย
Thank you everyone!
Michelle Park
