Majestuoso, este mochuelo europeo (Athene noctua) observa atentamente a quien tan atentamente le observa.

Original caption: For the first time, astronomers have found two giant clusters of galaxies that are just about to collide, as reported in a new press release by RIKEN. This observation is important in understanding the formation of structure in the Universe, sincelarge-scale structures—such as galaxies and clusters of galaxies—are thought to grow by collisions and mergers.
The composite image shows the separate galaxy clusters 1E2215 and 1E2216, located about 1.2 billion light years from Earth, captured as they enter a critical phase of merging. Chandra’s X-ray data (blue) have been combined with a radio image from the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope in India (red). These images were then overlaid on an optical image from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey that shows galaxies and stars in the field of view.
The discovery of 1E2215 and 1E2216 at this stage of merging has enabled astronomers to test their computer simulations of these important collisions. This new result provides evidence of a shock wave that is generated early in the merging process and travels out away from the collision in a perpendicular direction.
Because the merging process takes much longer than a human lifetime, astronomers only see snapshots of the various stages of these collisions. A separate graphic shows 1E2215 and 1E2216, plus two systems at earlier stages before collision (Abell 399/Abell 401, and Abell 1758), and one where the collision has already occurred (CIZA J2242.8). This series of images represents the sequential steps a galaxy cluster would undergo. A labeled version shows the separation between the two clusters and the amount of time, measured in billions of years, before or after impact.
ESA welcomed a record 1700 visitors from 800 companies and institutions to its tenth Industry Space Days on 28–29 September 2022 at ESTEC, its technical centre in the Netherlands.
This B2B event offers Europe's space industry the chance to find out about future ESA programmes, showcase their products, services and technologies, network, and meet potential business partners in one-on-one pre-arranged meetings.

Río Grande, julio 2022. Debido al calor del verano hay fotografías que no tienen la nitidez que deberían tener a esa distancia, pero a 40 grados es complicado luchar contra los efectos del calor.
