Time for a few more #EAA quick shots of some big #astrophotography beasts up in the sky at the moment. Sadly i must now wait an extra hour before the sky gets dark 😉 - Of course i’m still trying to avoid satellites but it’s tricky out there 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ #messier63 #messier64 #caldwell21
Messier 64, also known as the Black Eye Galaxy or Sleeping Beauty Galaxy, a stunning spiral galaxy approximately 17 million light-years away in the Coma Berenices constellation. This image showcases its distinctive dark dust lane creating a "black eye" effect, along with reddish star-forming regions. The galaxy's unique feature is its counter-rotating inner and outer regions, a result of a past galactic merger.
