NGC 3718 is found in the constellation of Ursa Major and known as a peculiar barred spiral galaxy. Gravitational interactions with its near neighbour NGC 3729 (the spiral galaxy below and to the left) are the probable reason for the galaxy’s warped spiral arm: photo by Mark Hanson, via The Guardian, 18 September 2014

Messier 81 (or Bode’s Galaxy) is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Ursa Major. The galaxy, similar to our own Milky Way, is 11.6 million light-years distant but Hubble’s view is so sharp it can resolve individual stars in the galaxy – along with open star clusters,
globular star clusters, and even glowing regions of fluorescent gas: photo by NASA/ESA via The Observer, 28 February 2015

The Sombrero Galaxy. The galaxy, seen edge on, is made up of a brilliant white core encircled by a thick line of dust and is 50,000 light-years in diameter and 28m light years from Earth. Using Hubble observations, astronomers calculate that there is a supermassive black hole, with a mass one billion times the sun’s, at its core: photo by NASA/ESA via The Observer, 28 February 2015

The October light falls cold, and number 53
Steps across the infield toward his destiny.
The April light is sullen, and number 54
Walks to the mound once more. Now he knows the score.
Out beyond the stars the universe watches,
Counting beats of strange hearts between pitches.

""I'm not saying Fred was an angel; whatever he did is now in the past. But the police already have made up their minds about who we are," said Rudolph Jackson, 51.
