It was a clear night tonight, so I took some photos of the night sky.

Below is a galaxy called the Black Eye Galaxy because it looks like someone has a black eye. It is 17 million light years from us and it was first discovered in March, 1779, that's 245 years ago this month. Pretty amazing!

The image is a little grainy because I just edited it on my phone, but it gives you an idea about how the galaxy looks, maybe try to zoom in on it. Enjoy!

My avatar picture is a photo of the Whirlpool Galaxy I took in April 2023. I dedicated this photo to my sister who passed away in July 2016.
