Was thinking I wanted to get some images from the #MarkarianChain this morning, didn’t realize that I set both the Dwarf Mini and the s50 to do this task. Here is the s50’s observation where you can see (from left to right) #M86 / #NGC4402 / #M84 / #NGC4388 / #IC3280 / #IC3346 / #NGC4306 / #NGC4305 #Galaxies. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Here is the first of two observations of the #MarkariansChain. Starting from left to right are #NGC4473 / #NGC4458 / #NGC4435 / #NGC4438 /#NGC4425 / #NGC4407 / #M86 / #NGC4402 / #NGC4488 / #NGC4367 / #M84 / #IC3258 / #NGC4306 / #NGC4305 #Galaxies. #dwarflabs #dwarfmini #space #astronomy #amateur

First picture I waited to publish after I got back home. This image is focused on #NGC4388 galaxy, which is a small part of the Markarian's Chain. Around this galaxy are the following galaxies #M86 #NGC4387 #IC3303 #NGC4425 #NGC4407 #IC3363. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Third time heading to this area where I can see 7 #galaxies. Tried to get a longer exposure. Wasn’t expecting the clear view this morning (was supposed to be cloudy this morning), started later than I would usually. Made it to a bit past 59 minutes before the telescope could not continue to to the sun coming up. Starting at the left, moving clockwise - #NGC4425 #M86 #NGC4402 #M84 #NGC4387 #NGC4388 #NGC4413 #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Was fascinated with an image I caught yesterday. Went back to take another image. You can see 7 distinct #galaxies in this image. Starting at the left, moving clockwise - #NGC4425 #M86 #NGC4402 #M84 #NGC4387 #NGC4388 #NGC4413 #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Pretty impressive shot. The #M84 galaxy to the center. Upper left is the #M86 galaxy. Lower left is the #NGC4388. In the center all 3 is #NGC4387 galaxy. Didn’t expect to get this image this morning. #galaxies #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Markarian’s Chain
Markarian’s Chain is a visually striking alignment of galaxies in the Virgo constellation, showcasing a series of gravitationally interacting galaxies, such as Messier 84 and Messier 86. It reaches its annual culmination at astronomical midnight around mid April. …

Markarjansche Kette
Markarjansche Kette ist eine auffällige Ausrichtung von Galaxien im Sternbild Jungfrau, die eine Reihe gravitativ wechselwirkender Galaxien wie Messier 84 und Messier 86 zeigt. Sie erreicht ihre jährliche Kulmination zur astronomische Mitternacht etwa Mitte April.
