Here are a few sample photos to whet your appetite.
1. White Dwarf Nebula - the white spot more or less in the center is a dying star. What a way to go!
2. Orion Nebula - what a palette of colors!
3. Nebula Sin Nomine - If this one has a name, I don't know it. With twinkling stars like these, who needs a name anyway?
4. Eagle Nebula - Do you see the eagle? I do. It reminds me of the eagle rock formation we saw at the Grand Canyon last spring. Pretty cool stuff.
5. M13 Galaxy - Wouldn't you love to hang this on your Christmas tree next year?
6. Boomerang Nebula - No words needed.
I want to join Star Fleet when I grow up.

The pictures are gorgeous.
I don't see an eagle, but I do see a sitting dog towards the top of the 5th picture.
Wow!
The one that is "unamed"...Sine Nome could be derived from latin sine nomine...which is translated without a name.
I guess my 3 years of latin in HS finally paid off!
Amazing pictures. AND we have only just begun to explore space. Oh the wonders that await to be discovered!
