Mestre, Italy: IPA88822482 - M 51 is an astronomical object in the Messier catalog that consists of two distinct galaxies in the northern constellation Canes Venatici: The larger and more famous Whirlpool Galaxy (also known as NGC 5194 and sometimes M51A) is a classic spiral galaxy. It was discovered by Charles Messier on October 13, 1773. The smaller companion galaxy, known as NGC 5195 (or M51B), is partially obscured by a dust lane of the Whirlpool Galaxy (with which it interacts) and was discovered by Pierre Méchain in 1781...

Mestre, Italy: IPA88822475 - The Pelican Nebula (also known as IC 5067/70) is an H II region visible in the constellation Cygnus, near Deneb (the tail of the swan and its brightest star); It belongs to the same giant molecular cloud as the nearby North America Nebula and is easily photographed. Its distance is estimated to be around 600±50 parsecs (1956±163 light-years). Star formation is actively taking place within it, as evidenced in particular by the presence of HH objects; these phenomena primarily involve low- and intermediate-mass stars..In the photo: IC 5070 (Credit Image: © Matteo Chinellato/IPA via ZUMA Press)

Mestre, Italy: IPA88822472 - IC 434 is an emission nebula visible in the constellation Orion; thanks to its presence, it is possible to observe the famous Horsehead Nebula, a dark cloud that lies in front of it along our line of sight. The Flame Nebula is a diffuse nebula visible in the constellation Orion..It lies 1 degree from the celestial equator, very close to the extremely bright star Alnitak—so close, in fact, that it is almost obscured by the star’s brightness. It is part of the large Orion Molecular Nebula Complex...In the photo: IC 434 and NGC 2024 (Credit Image: © Matteo Chinellato/IPA via ZUMA Press)
