This is only the central part of the huge
galaxy. We need about 6 times the field of view to encompass the
whole galaxy. Perhaps other observing groups will add to this
photo. |

Photo by Janelle
Matesich. Photo was
taken using a Canon EOS Rebel XTi digital camera attached to 20 cm
Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope. The Moon more than filled the field
of view of the camera. Two images were stitched together to
obtain a full view of the waxing gibbous Moon. To minimize the
effect of vibrations, the ISO was set to 1600 using a very fast shutter
speed. |

We will investigate these further in the final laboratory activity to study the Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams for each of these. |
