Astrophotography by Richard Harris
A celestial object that has captivated the imaginations of astronomers and photographers alike is NGC 5128, a peculiar galaxy located in the constellation of Centaurus. With its striking dust lanes and radiant core, NGC 5128 presents a unique opportunity for astrophotographers. Centaurus A is the fifth brightest galaxy in the night sky, and it also holds the distinction of being the closest giant galaxy to the Milky Way plus ranks among the nearest radio galaxies to our Earth.
Centaurus A is a galaxy in the constellation of Centaurus. It was discovered in 1826 by Scottish astronomer James Dunlop from his home in Parramatta, in New South Wales, Australia. There is considerable debate in the literature regarding the galaxy's fundamental properties such as its Hubble type and distance.
