- We have been preparing to go on a roadtrip from Washington to Minnesota and Georgia. Today I need to clean the car and go shopping with Mary on some clothes needed for the trip. During the trip we will be attending a wedding in Georgia after visiting my parents in Minnesota.
- Messier 60 (Wikipedia)
Messier 60 or M60, also known as NGC 4649, is an elliptical galaxy approximately 57 million light-years away in the equatorial constellation of Virgo. Together with NGC 4647, it forms a pair known as Arp 116. Messier 60 and nearby elliptical galaxy Messier 59 were discovered by Johann Gottfried Koehler in April 1779, observing a comet in the same part of the sky. Charles Messier added both to his catalogue about three days after this.
