  Messier 74 from Pisces
  by Karen Martin

  Messier 74 is a face-on spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces. The galaxy contains two clearly-defined spiral arms and is therefore used as an archetypal example of a Grand Design Spiral Galaxy. The galaxy’s low surface brightness makes it the most difficult Messier object for amateur astronomers to observe. However, the relatively large angular size of the galaxy and the galaxy’s face-on orientation make it an ideal object for professional astronomers who want to study spiral arm structure and spiral density waves.

  A Famous Globular Cluster
  by Sylvain Girard

  M13 his an easy to observe globular cluster in Hercules. It is the most brilliant visible from the north hemisphere. At this time you can see almost at the zenith (I’m at almost 45° N). You can see it with a simple binocular. You will recognize it by the two surrounding star which form an isosceles triangle with it. Their are the two most brilliant star on my photo. / Yesterday, M13 was on the APOD with almost the framing as me but way better quality ! 9 exposures of 3 minutes on a too short night of June. The worst autoguiding session.Canon EOS 350D on 150/750 Newtonian telescope (f=750mm F/5). Overload EQ5 equatorial mount. — M13 est un amas globulaire facile à observé dans Hercules. C’est le plus brillant visible de l’hémisphère nord. En ce moment vous pouvez le voir pratiquement au zénith (je suis près du 45ème parallèle). Vous pouvez le voir avec une simple paire de jumelle. Vous le reconnaîtrai grâce au deux étoiles qui l’entoure et qui forme un triangle isocèle avec lui. Ce sont les deux étoiles les plus brillante sur ma photo. / Hier M13 était sur l’APOD avec un cadrage proche du mien mais une qualité bien meilleur ! 9 poses de 3 minutes par une nuit trop courte de juin. Ma pire session d’autoguidage. Canon EOS 350D sur Newton 150/750 (f=750mm F/5). Monture équatoriale EQ5 surchargée.
