Camelopardalis

page 1

Camelopardalis is a large but faint constellation of the Northern Sky representing a giraffe. The constellation was introduced in 1612 or 1613 by Petrus Plancius. Some older astronomy books give Camelopardalus or Camelopardus as alternative forms of the name, but the version recognized by the International Astronomical Union matches the genitive form, seen suffixed to most of its brighter stars.

XO-3b is an exoplanet with about 11.79 times the mass of Jupiter, and it orbits its parent star XO-3 in about 3.2 days. The radius of this object is 1.217 times that of Jupiter. Astronomers announced their discovery on May 30, 2007, at the American Astronomical Society in Honolulu, Hawaii. Its discovery is attributed to the combined effort of amateur and professional astronomers working together on the XO Project using a telescope located on the Haleakala summit in Hawaii.

__NOTOC__ MACS0647-JD is a galaxy with a spectroscopic redshift of z = 10.17, equivalent to a light travel distance of 13.34 billion light-years (4 billion parsecs). It formed about 460 million years after the Big Bang.thumb|MACS0647-JD is very young and only a tiny fraction of the size of the Milky Way. |alt=|left
