Brian RaglePhoto 1: Pacman Nebula (NGC 281)
Captured with a DWARF 3 smart telescope from Tennessee skies, this image reveals the Pacman Nebula’s glowing clouds of hydrogen and dark dust lanes devouring starlight like its pixelated namesake. The nebula sits about 9,200 light-years away in Cassiopeia and is a stellar nursery where new suns ignite amid cosmic chaos. The black "mouth" cutting through the red haze is a dense molecular cloud silhouetted against ionized gas—proof the universe has both beauty and bite.

Photo 2: Triangulum Galaxy (M33)
Captured with a DWARF 2 telescope, this shot of the Triangulum Galaxy—our Local Group neighbor about 2.7 million light-years away—shows its faint spiral arms swirling through a sea of stars. The pale green glow reveals hydrogen regions where new stars are born, while the galaxy’s subtle rotation hints at its cosmic dance with the Andromeda and Milky Way galaxies. Even from our tiny vantage point, this spiral whispers: everything spins, everything changes, everything burns bright before fading.
