The Fireworks Galaxy - 100 billion stars!

In the last century we have witnessed 10 supernovas in the arms of this galaxy (Milky Way averages 2). All of the bright red spots you see are areas where new stars are being born, incredible considering this galaxy is 25 million light years away from us!

A giant E written among the stars...

This is Barnard 142, a dark nebulae made up of soot & dust that blocks out the light of the stars behind them.

It took 2000 years for this lack of light to reach my yard here in Victoria, BC :)

The Ghosts Of Cassiopeia!

It took 550 years for the light from these ghouls to travel through space to spook us today...

Happy Halloween, my friends!

The glorious Comet Lemmon.

Last catch of the comet as it races toward the sun. And its tail gets brighter. Soon, it will shoot back off into deep space before returning on its orbit in 1350 years. Wonder what incredible worlds it will visit...

My once in a lifetime capture!! 😊

My catch of the gorgeous Comet Lemmon as it made its closest approach to Earth. It will be back this way in 1350 years…

Friends, tonight's the night that Comet Lemmon will be making its closest approach to Earth for the next 1350 years. It's also a new moon. If it's clear after sunset where you are, find the big dipper (see below) to catch a glimpse of it... Here is my image of it from a few days ago, it is a beauty!

Look at that starburst!!

The Cigar Galaxy experiences star formation 10x faster than in our Milky Way. All of that bright red we see are millions upon millions of stars being born! Starburst!!!

It took 12 million years for this light to reach my telescope in Victoria, BC.

Comet Lemmon is getting closer to Earth! This beauty is now barely visible to the naked eye just after sunset and is getting brighter every day! It is now 92,000,000 km from us.

Comet Lemmon is getting brighter and is barely visible to the naked eye... if you want to try to see it, look just after sunset using the handle of the bog dipper as your reference. As the month moves on, the big dipper will move the the right but this is the area where you can see it...

My first catch of the glorious comet Lemmon. This beauty is getting closer to Earth and may be visible to the naked eye just after sunset after October 21. It will be back again this way in 1350 years…

The Iris Nebula!

Check out all of that space dust! The coolest! This is what is known as a reflection nebula: the light beams from a central star and then reflects off the surrounding dust clouds in a brilliant blue light.

It took 1400 years for this light to hit my telescope in Victoria, BC.
