Clear Skies Blog update - Astrotrip, Talma (Grandpré), 25 April 2025

[Victor van Wulfen]

Hi all,

A new blog entry was posted to the Clear Skies Blog for the night of 25 April 2025 in Talma (Grandpré), France.

https://clearskies.eu/blog/astrotrips/25apr25/

Among the observations is one for an HII region in a galaxy that turned out to have its own designation, and a pair of galaxies that made a good effort at mimicking a double star.

3 More astrotrip blogs are coming, soon.

Cheers,

Victor

You had me at "H II region in a galaxy," Victor! I'm excited to hear that you FINALLY got some observing done. Checking my notes, I have yet to attempt an observation of VV 88, but it's been on my list of ones to try for in my 16-inch since maybe last summer. As for VV 1618, I didn't know about it, but can't wait to check it out now!

Scott

There's another HII region in there, this time in a Messier galaxy.
