NGC 1499 - Nebulosa California

Soggetto che non mi ha mai affascinato, eppure durante l'elaborazione ha rivelato la sua magia.

Nebulosa California presente nella costellazione di Perseo.

Il suo nome, come potete immaginare, prende dalla somiglianza allo stato statunitense della California, la sua distanza è stimata sui circa 1.000 anni luce dalla Terra.

Personalmente, amando il Signore degli anelli, mi ricorda molto il bastone di Ragadast, uno degli Istari amico di Gandalf, dove nello Hobbit userà il bastone del suo amico, in quanto il suo è stato distrutto dallo scontro contro Sauron.

Chicca particolare è la presenza di tre galassie:

PGC 14455

IC 2027 è una galassia ellittica di tipo Hubble E0 nella costellazione del Perseo nel cielo settentrionale. Si stima che si trovi a 282 milioni di anni luce dalla Via Lattea e abbia un diametro di circa 30.000 anni luce.

IC 2005 La galassia è classificata come ellittica (E) secondo la classificazione morfologica delle galassie di Hubble.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
