“The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.”
— Carl Sagan

For #CarlSaganDay I’m sharing my latest processing attempt for my #astrophotography class — the Andromeda Galaxy (with at least two of its satellite galaxies). The software learning curve is still kicking my butt, but as always I’m awed to be able to work with these images. Details in the alt text.
