Other wise know as: The "Leaping Minnow" asterism in Auriga, located about 4o east of the star 3 Auriga; it's a prominent little grouping composed of the...

Looks like the Rain Clouds are practicing for the Monsoon Season. Only got .08" of Rain out of it but lots of Lightning (which around here without Rain isn't a...

Another image from the unbelievable spell of good weather in August/September. When I imaged ARO11 I did not know that it was identical to Campbell's hydrogen...

Arp 228/IC 0162 is the largest and likely anchoring galaxy of a small cluster of galaxies. Their red shift distances range from 220 to 246 million light...

Arp 113 is also in the Arp class "Elliptical or Elliptical-like Galaxies close to perturbing spirals". In fact it's the first entry in that class. There...

Arp 115/UGC 6678 is a triple galaxy about 440 million-light years distant located in the very northeast corner of Leo. Arp put it in his category of...

This has been a week I'd like to forget. First the motherboard of my main computer went out. In doing so it scrambled the hard drive. Fortunately I do...

I've been slowly reworking old images as my processing skills improve. Here's the revised Arp 157 Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not...

Arp 159/NGC 4747 is a very distorted galaxy in Coma Berenices not far from the famous Coma Galaxy Cluster, about 68 million light years distant by red shift....

Been traveling to astronomy meetings about the despiking of Arp 192 and other things. I should be back for the season now so I hope I can catch up on my...

Arp 171 and the galaxy cluster it anchors is located about 380 million light-years distant in the northeastern corner of Virgo. I rarely reshoot an object. ...

The Tower of Babble bit me again. I reimaged Arp 175 without realizing it as I also had it under its IC numbers. This turned out to be a good thing however. ...

Arp classifies this one under "Galaxies (not classifiable as E or S): Narrow filaments". Odd as the two galaxies involved seem to be obvious spirals. But...

It's not often an amateur observatory gets to correct the astronomical literature but it appears my little project of imaging in color the Arp galaxies I can...

Continuing with my Arp Galaxy series here is Arp 205. I ran Arp 206 last update. Both are classed under "Material Ejected From Nucleus". It is also known...

Arp 215, NGC 2782, is thought to be the result of two galaxies that have almost merged. The core is still elongated and appears double at some wavelengths. ...

Since I got the new monitor I've seen how bad some of my old images were with a ton of noise left in them that the failing monitor was hiding from me. So...

ARP 235/NGC 14 is an irregular peculiar galaxy in Pegasus. Arp classified it under: "Galaxies (not classifiable as S or E); Appearance of fission. He also...

Arp classified this one as galaxies (not classifiable as E or S): Irregular clumps. He said of it: "Semi-stellar nucleus, faint oval ring outside." The outer...

Darn, I grabbed the wrong images. These have better color saturation. Rick
