Venus in a close conjunction with dimmer Saturn in the evening twilight on January 22,2023. They were 22 arc minutes apart this evening. The 1-day-old waxing crescent Moon is below the planet pair deep in the twilight. The magnitude 2.8 star Deneb Algiedi,aka Delta Capricorni,is faintly visible below Venus. Venus was magnitude -3.9 while Saturn was magnitude 0.8.

This is the active Sun on July 9,2023,with numerous sunspot groups across the disk,including the very large region AR3363 at lower left that had just turned into view. At top is the pair of spots comprising AR3361,and at lower right another pair AR3366. Bright faculae are visible on the darker limbs of the Sun as well as the general fine granulation across the surface. North is approximately up here.

This is the pair of mismatched globular star clusters,Messier 53 (on the right) and NGC 5053 in Coma Berenices. M53 is a rich cluster while NGC 5053 is fainter and rather poorly populated. The difference is intrinsic as both clusters lie about the same distance away,some 53,000 light years. The brightest star at lower right is Diadem,or Alpha Comae Barenices. A number of faint and tiny IC,PGC and UGC galaxies dot the field.

This is the famous Double Cluster,a pair of open star clusters,in Perseus. On the left is NGC 884; on the right is NGC 869. The clusters are notable for the array of yellow supergiant stars amid the hot blue stars. The clusters are thougbt to be quite young,at 3.2 millon and 5.6 million years old,respectively.
