M33 Core

M33 or also known as the Triangulum Galaxy is the third largest galaxy in our local group behind the Andromeda Galaxy and the Milky Way. It lies about 2.73 MLY's away in the constellation Triangulum. It was discovered by Giovanni Battista Hodierna before 1654 and was independently discovered by Charles Messier in 1764. In 1922-23 John Charles Duncan and Max Wolf discovered variable stars in M33 and in 1926 Edwin Hubble verified that 35 of these stars were classical Cepheids, thereby allowing him to estimate their distances and confirm that spiral nebulae were independent galaxies. A point of interest is that M33 does not appear to have a super massive black hole at its center as the size of the black hole is correlated with the size of the central bulge and M33 is a pure disk galaxy without a central bulge.

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.
