The Phantom Galaxy, also known as M74, is a grand-design spiral galaxy located about 32 million light-years away in the constellation Pisces. It is noted for its nearly perfect spiral structure, with well-defined arms that spiral out from a central core. The galaxy is rich in star-forming regions and has a low surface brightness, making it a challenging target for amateur astronomers. M74 is an important object of study for understanding galaxy formation and stellar evolution. I made this captur

👉The Milky Way isn’t just a pretty spray of stars across the night sky — it’s a massive, living system that has been changing and growing for over 13 billion years. Our galaxy has a barred spiral shape, with a glowing central bulge, a bar of stars running through its middle, and wide spiral arms that curve outward. These arms are busy places where new stars are constantly forming. At the very center sits a supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A*. It has millions of times the mass of our S
