Finally addressing a backlog of #astro #galaxy images over recent weeks. Still under 60 mins exposure but am creeping close to the bar! #messier81 #messier65 #messier66 #messier106 #NGC3628 #EAA #space #astronomy Hope you all like them...
A stunning image of Messier 106 (M106), a spiral galaxy located approximately 21 million light-years away in the constellation Canes Venatici. The image showcases its vibrant spiral arms, bright core powered by a massive black hole, and youthful blue star clusters. M106 is a Seyfert galaxy, a type of active galaxy with a very bright core.

Oblique view of a spiral galaxy with two noticeable arms and dust lanes along them. A more distant, hamburger-shaped galaxy also in the image.
A great spiral galaxy rotates in space. Brian Peel in Laramie, Wyoming, captured #Messier106, a #galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici, in April. Thank you, Brian! See more of April’s deep-sky photos, plus watch a video, here: buff.ly/n56s61X
Stunning telescopic view of Messier 106 (NGC 4258), a magnificent spiral galaxy in Canes Venatici, approximately 23.5 million light-years away. The image also captures NGC 4217, a spiral galaxy viewed edge-on, and bright foreground stars from our own Milky Way. This vast cosmic scene highlights the scale of the universe and the ongoing exploration of deep space.

Stunning image of Messier 106 (M106), a spiral Seyfert galaxy approximately 21 million light-years away. Its bright core, powered by a supermassive black hole, is surrounded by striking spiral arms with young blue star clusters and reddish stellar nurseries. Located near Ursa Major and Canes Venatici constellations.
