The week was anything but quiet, and the next one promises to be even hotter. Amid the rush of work and garden beds, I forgot about the beautiful celestial trophies. I remembered just now and am sharing them with you.
The Bode's Galaxy and the Cigar Galaxy, or the galaxy group M81 and M82, are located in the constellation Ursa Major. In fact, they are physically connected to each other, and this is not just a projection on the celestial sphere. By the way, now is the perfect time for imaging, as the galaxies are almost at the zenith.
