Messier 61 is an intermediate barred spiral galaxy in the Virgo Cluster of galaxies. It was first discovered by Barnaba Oriani on May 5, 1779, six days before Charles Messier discovered the same galaxy. Messier had observed it on the same night as Oriani but had mistaken it for a comet. Its distance has been estimated to be 45.61 million light years from the Milky Way Galaxy. It is a member of the M61 Group of galaxies, which is a member of the Virgo II Groups, a series of galaxies and galaxy clusters strung out from the southern edge of the Virgo Supercluster.

SDSS J1229+1122 is a blue supergiant O-type star in the tail of dwarf irregular galaxy IC 3418. It illuminates a nebula clump of gas, and was discovered from the spectrum of the illumination source. The clump of gas resides in a tail caused by ram pressure stripping of gas from the galaxy by the galaxy cluster. It was determined to be a blue supergiant through analysis of its spectrum taken with the 8m Subaru telescope. The discovery was made by Youichi Ohyama and Ananda Hota, using the Subaru Telescope. This discovery was then followed up with the AstroSat to image it with finer angular resolution in the ultraviolet than that of GALEX. With addition of HST optical data the astronomers believe that the ram pressure stripped tail of IC3418 many have many such young star forming clumps and potentially single O-type stars.
