Galaxies in Ursa Major, wide-field view from my back yard of Bode’s Galaxy (M81, NGC 3031) and the Cigar Galaxy (M82, NGC 3034) about 12-million lightyears away in Ursa Major (the “Big Dipper”). There are a bunch of other galaxies in this view, including NGC 3077 and NGC 2976. The clouds and interstellar dust are in our galaxy and are lit by the surrounding starlight. Imaging Notes: 73 x 300-second sub-exposures taken with the William Optics Redcat 51 apochromatic refractor, ZWO ASI071MC color camera cooled to 0°C at Gain 0.
