Reading Mi Pai Photography

A striking long galaxy chain runs through the center of the Virgo cluster, which we call "Makaryan galaxy chain".

In this photo, the most conspicuous part of this galaxy chain is two ordinary large lens galaxies M84 and M86 in the upper right corner, and below them are interacting galaxies NGC4438 and NGC4435, which are called "binocular galaxies" and also known as the eye of Makaryan. Virgo cluster is the closest cluster to us. It is composed of more than 2,000 galaxies, which has an obvious gravitational effect on the galaxies in the local cluster around our Milky Way. Its center is 70 million light years away from us. Taken in Lijiang, Yunnan.

The number one celestial body M 1 Crab Nebula in messier catalog is located in Taurus. It is a relic left by the explosion of the guest star (supernova) recorded in the Northern Song Dynasty (1054), and it is still expanding outward. The mirror is too small to take an outline.

IC59 ghost nebula in Cassiopeia,

Ghosts in the universe. Ghost version of LRGB. Taken in Gaoyazi, Xinjiang.

M27 dumbbell nebula.

This is a planetary nebula in the constellation Fox, about 850 light years away from the Earth. Taken in Gaoyazi, Xinjiang.

HIP 1 1330 1 Cave Nebula (SH2- 155).

This is a nebula located in Cepheus. Because its structure contains emission, reflection and dark nebula, it looks hazy and diffuse. It spans about four full moons in the night sky and is about 2400 light years away from us.

Elephant trunk nebula IC 1396,

Located in Cepheus, it is a new star-forming area composed of strong stellar winds, nebula gases and dust clouds generated by newborn stars. This strip nebula is more than 20 light years long and looks very similar to the elephant's long nose, so it is often called the elephant trunk nebula.
