Do you like galaxies? I DO.
I've been combing through the Legacy Survey, and ooft are they damn awesome!
So, am gonna do a 'Galaxy Photo of the Day' (GPOD) starting this weekend. Here's a lil' sample!
There will be:
- spirals
- edgy edge-ons
- drunk galaxies
- dusties
- mergers
- clusters
If you have a fav, lemme know and I will try find it! (note - the DES data doesn't cover all regions of the sky).
Also, these will mostly be spirals, as spirals >> ellipticals (it's true, and you know it).
Will try and get a few fun facts about each one ...
Will try to post a couple per week!
