LOL! I missed 8! :-) Thank you, Jimmy Ray -----Original Message----- From: az-observing-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:az-observing-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bernard Miller Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2011 8:01 PM To: az-observing@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [AZ-Observing] Re: NGC 891 Jimmy, Take a look at this. http://tinyurl.com/7h934rd Bernard -----Original Message----- From: az-observing-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:az-observing-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jimmy Ray Sent: Tuesday, December 06, 2011 7:50 PM To: az-observing@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [AZ-Observing] Re: NGC 891 I came up with 40 sweeping back and forth across the image on the screen (41 if you included 891 itself). Might be fun to download, lay a grid over it and go section by section noting the number and type of galaxies visible or take a chart and confirm them all.

I forget who, but someone said they had counted 40 galaxies. Not exactly the Hubble deep field image, but pretty cool.

Those are some very faint fuzzies in the background!

This is a cropped version of NGC 891. You can just make out the dusty filaments in the halo. These patterns are extending into the halo of the galaxy, away from its galactic disk. Scientists presume that supernova explosions caused this interstellar dust to be thrown out of the galactic disk toward the halo http://www.azstarman.net/NGC891_CROP.htm The full frame version can be seen here http://www.azstarman.net/NGC891.htm Bernard -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list. -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list. -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list. -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list. -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list.
