I pick up MX -the free newspaper they hand out in railway stations in sydney on my way home from work and noticed that they had this image of the ring tail or antennae galaxy as NGC 4038 and 4039 are also known as..amazing that a Hubble press realease caught the attention of the editors in a Murdoch rag

its quite a popular target BTW for Ice in Space members--I think Scott Adler had a pretty good go at it and so did one or two others

as a Caldwell object in theory its in range of a 4 inch scope

still hubble shows these objects to us in astonishing detail..what will we do when it finally fails
