A host of astronomical objects are scattered across this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Background galaxies ranging from stately spirals to fuzzy ellipticals are strewn across the image, while a smattering of bright foreground stars are closer to home. In the center of the image, the vague shape of the small galaxy UGC 7983 appears as a hazy cloud of light. UGC 7983 is around 30 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo. It is a dwarf irregular galaxy – a type thought to be similar to the very earliest galaxies in the universe.
This image also reveals a relatively nearby astronomical interloper. A minor asteroid in our own solar system streaks across the upper left-hand side of the image. The asteroid’s trail is visible as four streaks of light separated by small gaps. These streaks of light represent the four separate exposures that were combined to create this image. The small gaps between each observation reflect filter changes inside Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys between exposures.
Capturing an asteroid was a fortunate side effect of a larger effort to observe every known galaxy close to the Milky Way. Hubble had imaged roughly 75% of all the Milky Way’s near galactic neighbors, when a group of astronomers proposed using the gaps between longer Hubble observations to capture images of the remaining 25%. The project was an elegant efficient way to fill gaps in Hubble's observing schedule and in our knowledge of nearby galaxies.

The young woman from Greenland accompanied us to our local hosts.
Very interesting what she explained to us.

Die junge Frau aus Grönland begleitete uns zu unseren örtlichen Gastgebern.
Sehr interessant, was sie uns erklärte.
I planted all the host plants for the Black Swallowtail and today a little mama paid me a visit and I found 46 eggs so far!!!!
I've never raised Swallowtails, so this should be a fun adventure!!!
She left most of the eggs on this dill plant, with some on the carrot tops.... I'm sure there are more I missed...

L’hosta se repère facilement au jardin : une grande touffe au feuillage large et décoratif, où le vert et le jaune clair se marient pour le plaisir des yeux. Il se plait à l’ombre et si les fleurs sont de la partie, il tolérera aussi l’ensoleillement. Ainsi, il habille les sous-bois, les massifs et les bordures. Souvent, il prend place en pot, apportant sa touche à une terrasse ou un balcon. Contre la limace, son ennemi juré, il a aujourd’hui plus d’une parade à son actif !
