Diese Aufnahme aus der vorletzten Nacht zeigt in der Mitte Bodes Galaxie (M81) in 12 Millionen Lichtjahren Entfernung. Sie hat einen Durchmesser von 82.000 Lichtjahren und besteht aus rund 200 Milliarden Sternen. Oben links sieht man die Zigarrengalaxie (M82). Sie ist ähnlich weit entfernt, hat aber nur etwa den halben Durchmesser von Bodes Galaxie.

#M82 c'est quoi ?
C'est une plateforme qui regroupe des personnes d'horizons variés autour des questions de cybersécurité, cyberdéfense et de la manipulation de l'information.
Notre objectif est de favoriser la circulation des savoirs et de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension des enjeux liés à la sécurité numérique.
Cette communauté réalise, entre autres, une bibliographie partagée et collaborative, des recensions de livres et revues ainsi que des articles sur nos thèmes de prédilection.

Et voilà ! La nouvelle version de la bibliographie cyber du M82 project ! Dans cette édition on intègre les avis de nos membres sur les ouvrages ! #cyber #M82

Combining H-Alpha- and RGB-Data

Having collected more narrowband data than ever before, a more sophisticated way of combining narrowband and broadband data was required.

Bode's Galaxy and Cigar Galaxy (preliminary result April 2023)

The current status of my long-term project to photograph Bode's Galaxy and the Cigar Galaxy. Due to the weather, probably also the final status for 2023.

Messier 81 (M81) - Bode's Galaxy, a grand design spiral galaxy and Messier 82 (M82) - Cigar Galaxy, a starbusrt galaxy.

The M81 and M82 galaxies are part of the M81 Group in the Ursa Major constellation. The M81 Group is one of the nearest to the Local Group and is part of the Virgo Supercluster.

This image is composed from a stack of 150 four minute sub-exposures (10h total) I shot over two nights on March 11 and 24 from a Bortle 6 (bright suburban) light polluted sky. Imaging equipment: Askar FRA400 refractor telescope, ZWO ASI183MC Pro RGB camera and an Optolong L-Pro light pollution filter on a HEQ5 mount.

Captured with Kstars, Ekos and PHD2 on Astroberry. Processing with Pixinsight, StarNet and Darktable.

M81 and M82 captured from New Mexico. This is the first clear night I’ve had in a couple months so it was nice to get the gear out. 6 hours of RGB data. #zwoam5 #asi294mmpro #at115edt #newmexico #deming #cityofrocksstatepark #astronomy #astrophotography #m81 #m82 #pixinsight

I've been spending way too much time in cities lately, but I've finally found some dark sky (even if there is a full moon). Let's see if we can't get a good imaging session going tonight. #astrophotography #astronomy #zwo #bodesgalaxy #m81 #m82

A wide field picture taken from my backyard in February: M81 (Bodes’s galaxy), M82 (cigar galaxy) along with many small galaxies in the Ursa Major constellation. On the foreground, clouds of gas and dust (integrated flux nebulae, IFN) are faintly illuminated by the light of our home galaxy, the Milky Way.

Total exposure time: 30h
Processing: Siril, Pixinsight, DxO Photolab

Here are M81 and M82, taken 2 weeks ago now. These 2 galaxies are absolutely magnificent to contemplate in a telescopeIf you want to start looking at the sky, I highly recommend them!

Setup :
🔭 FRA500 on SkyWatcher EQ6-R pro mount
📷 ASI 294MC
➕ 0.7 reducer, L-pro filter

Here are the results of my last session. Messier 82, the cigar galaxy and a good known M42, great Orion Nebula. Both were test-images because i actually have some troubles with my guiding or my mount. We'll see that later :)

@catherineryanhyde
One of my favorite observation targets. They galaxy pair show reasonably well in. My 6 inch #rft and my #nexstar5. #m81 and #m82 are even visible in my 60mm refractor.

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography #M81 and #M82 (Bode's and Cigar) are two galaxies in Ursa Major about 12 million light years from Earth. Capturing this image took about an hour and a half (16 images of 5 minutes each) last night. I didn't have much time for processing today but I like that this quick start is already showing the spiral shape of Bode's and the bulge in the middle of Cigar. #StillLearning

Bei einem #Busunglück in #Berlin-#Lankwitz ist am Samstag eine 15-Jährige ums Leben gekommen. Eine 14-Jährige liegt schwer verletzt im Krankenhaus. Beide Jugendliche waren unter einem Bus der Linie #M82 eingeklemmt. https://rbburl.de/bvgunglueck
