NGC6744, An Intermediate Spiral Galaxy in Pavo
NGC6744 mimics our own Milky Way with floculent arms and an elongated core, although more than double the size.
It was discovered from Parramatta in Australia by Scottish astronomer James Dunlop on 30 June 1826.
NGC6744 is approximately 175,000 light-years across, and nearly 30 million light-years distant.
It appears to cover as much sky as the full moon.

The intermediate egret, median egret, smaller egret, or yellow-billed egret is a medium-sized heron. Some taxonomists put the species in the genus Egretta or Mesophoyx. It is a resident breeder from east Africa across the Indian subcontinent to Southeast Asia and Australia
This Intermediate Egret In breeding plumage was foraging for food and as I approached he started to dance.
I can not help but love the birds that I photograph. I was very excited to see this bird perform like he did.
Captured at Cotton Tree, Maroochydore, Sunshine Coast, Queensland Australia.

An Intermediate Egret in the shallows of Pine River on Sunday afternoon. These birds have long legs! This is equivalent to us standing in water just above the knees. Very inquisitive species. This one came close enough to check me out and wasn’t phased by my presence.

The IXV Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle, installed on its payload adapter, is being prepared for launch, at Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, on 27 January 2015.
IXV will be launched 320 km into space on top of a Vega rocket, VV04, climbing up to 420 km before beginning a long glide back through the atmosphere. In the process, IXV will gather data on reentry conditions to help guide the design of future spaceplanes.
