M95
About this celestial object
M95, a delicate spiral galaxy, reveals the Lion’s quiet side.
M95 lies in Leo and sits near M96 and M105—a small galaxy group often observed together.
363 exposures yield just over an hour of integration; at 250 mm the bright core appears as a fine spot in the star field, despite 62% humidity.
The f/5 instrument gathers enough light to hint at structure, even so low above the horizon.
