AllanICarswellObservatoryDid you know that the Moon has a tail made of sodium atoms? It's not visible to the naked eye, but during the New Moon and under the right conditions, some astronomical instruments can detect a faint tail stretching thousands of kilometers into space. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Moon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Moon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Lunar?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lunar</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SodiumTail?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SodiumTail</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Observing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Observing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Telescope?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Telescope</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/AllanICarswellObservatory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AllanICarswellObservatory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/YorkU?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#YorkU</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Toronto?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Ontario?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astronomy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astronomy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astronomer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astronomer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Science?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astrophotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astrophotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SpaceScienceSaturday?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpaceScienceSaturday</a>

AllanICarswellObservatorySpiral galaxy NGC 7331, also known as the Caldwell 30, is pretty similar to our Milky Way in terms of mass, size and shape. Located in the constellation Pegasus, Caldwell 30 is about 45 million lightyears away from us. The galaxy got the nickname Caldwell 30 because it is a member of the group of 86 objects catalogued by astronomer Sir Patrick Moore. He named the objects the Caldwell Objects because his full surname is actually Caldwell-Moore. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Caldwell?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Caldwell</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/NGC7331?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NGC7331</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Caldwell30?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Caldwell30</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Spiral?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Spiral</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Galaxy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Galaxy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/AllanICarswellObservatory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AllanICarswellObservatory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/YorkU?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#YorkU</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Toronto?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Ontario?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astronomy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astronomy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astronomer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astronomer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Science?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astrophotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astrophotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SpaceScienceSaturday?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpaceScienceSaturday</a>

AllanICarswellObservatoryIn this image we have M33 which is also known as the Triangulum galaxy due to its location in the Triangulum constellation. M33 has a magnitude of 5.7 which means that it is visible to the naked eye, under ideal observing conditions. Its orderly spirals signify that it has had very little interaction with nearby galaxies. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Messier?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Messier</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/M33?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#M33</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Triangulum?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Triangulum</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Galaxy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Galaxy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/AllanICarswellObservatory?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AllanICarswellObservatory</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/YorkU?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#YorkU</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Toronto?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toronto</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Ontario?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ontario</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astronomy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astronomy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astronomer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astronomer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Science?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Astrophotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Astrophotography</a>

AllanICarswellObservatoryJoin us this evening for an exciting talk on Measuring the Night Sky with guest speaker John Wilmot. John Wilmot's interest in astronomy began in childhood with constellation identification in Cub Scouts. After a period of casual observation with small telescopes, his passion deepened in 2004 with the purchase of a serious telescope and subsequent involvement in a local astronomy club. Following a brief hiatus, he resumed the hobby, quickly completing the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada's 'Explore the Universe' program. Currently, he is engaged in sketching the Messier objects and serves as a director of the Barrie Astronomy Club, where he presents on astronomical topics. John has also delivered presentations at the Barrie Public Library, sharing his enthusiasm for the night sky with both adults and children.
