ObjectCaption=M42, the Great Orion Nebula, is one of the most recognizable and famous emission nebulae. Easily visible to the unaided eye at the center of the sword in Orion, just below the belt, it is a rewarding object to observe with even the most modest of binoculars or telescopes. It spans a visible area of the sky about four times the apparent size of the full moon. It lies at a distance of about 1,500 light-years from Earth and is the closest star-forming region. M42 is powered by four hot, new stars at its center. -- <credit>Akira Fujii</credit>

ObjectCaption=M8, the Lagoon Nebula, gets its name from the dark band of dust that separates its two bright sections. M8 is an emission nebula in Sagittarius comprising clouds of high-temperature gas, and it is thought to be the site of recent and ongoing star formation. M8 is easily observed with binoculars and is one of the more beautiful objects in the night sky. The open cluster enveloped by the Lagoon Nebula is known as NGC 6530, and it contains several dozen hot, new stars. -- <credit>Akira Fujii</credit>

ObjectCaption=M31, the Andromeda galaxy, in Andromeda, is the most easily visible galaxy and the Milky WayÆs closest neighbor. The Milky Way and M31 are part of the so-called Local Group of galaxies. M31 is visible to the unaided eye even under moderate conditions, and recorded observations of it date back as far as the late 10th century AD, when the Persian astronomer al-Sufi noted it. Thought to be about 2.2 million light-years away from Earth, M31 is believed to be about 150,000-180,000 light-years in diameter, twice the diameter of the Milky Way. -- <credit>Akira Fujii</credit>

ObjectCaption=M51, the Whirlpool galaxy, is in Canes Venatici and is an estimated 37 million light-years from Earth. M51 was one of Messier's earliest discoveries. It has a beautiful spiral shape and is connected to a small galaxy called NGC 5195. This small galaxy is in fact physically attached to the Whirlpool galaxy by a galactic bridge of gas and stars. Although M51 is an excellent galaxy for modest telescopes, dark skies are needed to see it easily. -- <credit>Akira Fujii</credit>
