To commemorate the Hubble Space Telescope's 19 years of historic, trailblazing science, the orbiting telescope has photographed a peculiar system of galaxies known as Arp 194. This interacting group contains several galaxies, along with a "cosmic fountain" of stars, gas, and dust that stretches over 100,000 light-years.

 

The northern (upper) component of Arp 194 appears as a haphazard collection of dusty spiral arms, bright blue star-forming regions, and at least two galaxy nuclei that appear to be connected and in the early stages of merging. A third, relatively normal, spiral galaxy appears off to the right. The southern (lower) component of the galaxy group contains a single large spiral galaxy with its own blue star-forming regions.

 

However, the most striking feature of this galaxy troupe is the impressive blue stream of material extending from the northern component. This "fountain" contains complexes of super star clusters, each one of which may contain dozens of individual young star clusters. The blue color is produced by the hot, massive stars which dominate the light in each cluster. Overall, the "fountain" contains many millions of stars.

 

These young star clusters probably formed as a result of the interactions between the galaxies in the northern component of Arp 194. The compression of gas involved in galaxy interactions can enhance the star-formation rate and give rise to brilliant bursts of star formation in merging systems.

 

Hubble's resolution shows clearly that the stream of material lies in front of the southern component of Arp 194, as evidenced by the dust that is silhouetted around the star-cluster complexes. It is therefore not entirely clear whether the southern component actually interacts with the northern pair.

 

The details of the interactions among the multiple galaxies that make up Arp 194 are complex. The shapes of all the galaxies involved appear to have been distorted, possibly by their gravitational interactions with one another.

 

Arp 194, located in the constellation Cepheus, resides approximately 600 million light-years away from Earth. It contains some of the many interacting and merging galaxies known in our relatively nearby universe. These observations were taken in January of 2009 with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. Images taken through blue, green, and red filters were combined to form this picturesque image of galaxy interaction.

I made it to Peggy’s Cove again to shoot the Milky Way, finally we had clear skies. I know, crazy, right? I had two objectives on this outing. First, I wanted to capture a similar image to when I was last there in 2021, but now with the benefit of a star tracking mount. Second, I wanted to try and shoot the mesmerizing Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex, a stunning part of the night sky which is in line with the core of the Milky Way.

 

It took a bit for the Milky Way to move into a favourable position. I was eager to use my new 50mm lens (the nifty fifty) for the first time (for astro), specifically chosen for Milky Way photography. It performed beautifully.

 

This image required quite a bit of work, as the lights from the nearby building cast an unwanted glow onto the area—definitely not ideal for long exposures with high ISOs. I forgot just how much effort was involved until I started working on the images the next morning. This is a blend of three shots: the night sky captured with the tracker, and other images of the foreground and lighthouse, all while trying to compensate for my nemesis—the floodlight.

 

Stay tuned for my next video, which will chronicle this adventure. Watch for it next week (I hope)!

In the vast cosmic ocean of time and space, our current inability to travel can sometimes make it feel like we're trapped in a cosmic fishbowl, surrounded on all sides by glass of immense distance and darkness. Perhaps one day we will find that we have nieghbors in the stars and we can rejoice in our shared existence. Until then, seven billion of us will have to endure our loneliness.

 

"The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

 

"... There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known."

 

— Carl Sagan (1934-1996)

in hawaii, last night's total lunar eclipse also happened at the peak moment of the moon's fullness..

knew my little not-digital camera wouldn't be able to really get an image, but i like this rose in the vastness of the night sky anyway..

and wanted to share with you the juicy color the moon became during the eclipse .. (one of the native american names for this late summer full moon is fruit moon :)

   

am sorry to still have to be away from your streams due to things here ~ missing you *

For my course work i have been set a task to capture night landscapes , trouble is around my area there is not many landmarks or amazing landscapes so i had to make do with what i have. me and my friend could see it was a really clear night so we decided to go out and shoot. I found this tree with the milkyway towering over it even though there was light polution i set the 550D up and started shooting.

Cosmic Galaxy Egg

Andrew Logan's hypnotically beautiful, eight-foot 'Cosmic Galaxy Egg' – the mythological symbol for the cosmic source of all waters, shimmers from the center of The Jim Rouse Visionary Center's bird-themed entrance plaza. Inspired by the deep space imagery captured by the Hubble Telescope (whose earthly home is here at Baltimore's Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI)) the Egg features swirling galaxies, nascent stars, and even our tin

Boa noite/madruga! xD voltando aqui para postar um holográfico de tirar suspiros, sério, muito lindo!Me encantou muito (bem mais que o prata da coleção!) Era pra ser um laranjinha clara meio queimado na minha concepção, mas minha mãe disse que era rosa, e eu tenho que concordar que o danadinho puxa pro rosa também!Além disso na sombra fica discreto e chique, amei demais!A holografia é berrante, mal conseguia parar de olhar pra zunhas xD Fiquei 1 semana +/- e durou intacto sem top coat, um amor!

Muito lindo né? Fiquei apaixonada! Preciso usar os outros da coleção...

 

PS: foto na sombra nos comentários :D

 

Uma linda semana pra vocês! Beijos!

"Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine."

Sir Arthur Eddington

I had this broken Cosmic 35 camera for years. It had given it's lens to another camera, so I decided to turn it into a pinhole camera. It's now complete with a custom internal shutter that uses a ball-point pen's spring for the return mechanism. It was really hard to design and fit in the camera's tiny interior space.

The lens is a telephoto adapter that is used to make the final image closer to what the viewfinder sees.
