Star of Wonder, Star of Night

One of the great things about Huletts is the amazing night sky we have in the summer. There’s nothing like being out on the lake at night and gazing up and seeing the brilliant night sky.

This is a short little clip, with some amazing animation, about a little known nearby galaxy called “M74”. It’s difficult for amateur astronomers to see, but the Hubble Space telescope has captured some amazing pictures of it. What the naked eye sees as distant stars are in many cases faraway galaxies that burn brightly.
