Not a real space photo. Light art.
Testing new light painting/plastic combo for dense, small starfield and elliptical galaxies.
Single exposure. Nebula pattern created using new Waterworld technique - 100mm lens. Galaxies using light painted plastic, and star field using LED's and laser, some with 0.003-inch (8X) flyfishing line on lens to create cross-shaped diffraction patterns - 16-35mm lens at 20mm-35mm. No other significant Photoshop manipulations, except image resize.
-- Damn space pups trying to beam up & steal my frappachino! The nerve! Most of what you see here was a crazy moment of shopping at C88, I love it all and was so inspired by the cute background and space corgi's. There is no amazing and deep message for today...just ultra cuteness and pups who love galaxy fraps apparently. xD --

This month's Space Exploration for Bright Metallic!
Ive been watching a little Scfi this week and couldnt resist my own little Cybernetic Punk.
Awesome Outfit from SEKA, and the cutest little droid with helpful protection from BONDI
Lost in Space, not really just Lost in my SL .
A Space Transport/Crane Ship in Generation 1 Classic Space design.
So this is my Lego Classic Space LL926 Space Crane.
I hope you like it. – My son does :-))

Still cruising the Scutum Centaurus Arm of the Milky Way galaxy, the Hullbull Remote Space Telescope peers into a dense nebula and captures an image of a binary protostar system in early stages of development.
Not a real space photo. Light art.
Two exposures, 100mm lens: Waterworld technique (handheld) used to create blue/yellow/red nebula pattern. Recompose on tripod for second exposure using water droplets, blue, red, yellow, and white LEDs to create background star field, selective masking to eliminate "stars" behind nebula (black matting); Waterworld technique again to create two protostar patterns, two focal distances, Waterworld combined with droplet technique to create protoplanets/asteroids in protoplanetary disk of left protostar. Protodifficult.
Featured in this new image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope is a nearly edge-on view of the lenticular galaxy NGC 4753. These galaxies have an elliptical shape and ill-defined spiral arms.
This image is the object's sharpest view to date, showcasing Hubble’s incredible resolving power and ability to reveal complex dust structures. NGC 4753 resides around 60 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo and was first discovered by the astronomer William Herschel in 1784. It is a member of the NGC 4753 Group of galaxies within the Virgo II Cloud, which comprises roughly 100 galaxies and galaxy clusters.
This galaxy is believed to be the result of a galactic merger with a nearby dwarf galaxy roughly 1.3 billion years ago. NGC 4753’s distinct dust lanes around its nucleus are believed to have been accreted from this merger event.
It is now believed that most of the mass in the galaxy lies in a slightly flattened spherical halo of dark matter. Dark matter is a form of matter that cannot currently be observed directly, but is thought to comprise about 85% of all matter in the Universe. It is referred to as ‘dark’ because it does not appear to interact with the electromagnetic field, and therefore does not seem to emit, reflect or refract light.
This object is also of scientific interest to test different theories of formation of lenticular galaxies, given its low-density environment and complex structure. Furthermore, this galaxy has been host to two known Type Ia supernovae. These types of supernovae are extremely important as they are all caused by exploding white dwarfs which have companion stars, and always peak at the same brightness — 5 billion times brighter than the Sun. Knowing the true brightness of these events, and comparing this with their apparent brightness, gives astronomers a unique chance to measure distances in the Universe.
[Image Description: Lenticular galaxy NGC 4753 is featured with a bright white core and surrounding defined dust lanes around its nucleus, that predominantly appear dark brown in colour. A variety of faint stars fill the background of the image.]
My favourite of the whole shoot- I added in the starry sky n I looove how it turned out (with the help of Matt ofc) :))
From time to time, I like to design MOCs like real sets/real toys. It means the MOC must be fairly simple, with parts from the era of the theme, and also it must be solid and with at least one cool play feature.
Actually, it's harder than it seems ^^ But I'm rather happy with this little one...
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST), with its normal routine temporarily interrupted, is berthed in the cargo bay of the Space Shuttle Columbia prior to a week of servicing and upgrading by the STS-109 astronaut crew in March 2002. A thin blue line of airglow reveals Earth's horizon at sunrise.

One of a photo collection taken at the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson, Ariznoa. They have an amazing collection, and a friendly and knowledgeable staff. We had a great day there with the whole family. The kids love it… and so do the grown-ups. I had not been since I was a child… anyway. I hope you enjoy the image.
The window seen below is the only window on that space shuttle besides those that are in the flight deck.
Sadly, 13 years ago yesterday the space shuttle Columbia had broken up on re-entry to earth. The cause being a piece of foam insulation that broke off during the initial climb out from the space centre to outer space, it had damaged the leading edge on one of the orbiters delta wings.
Now the reason I mentioned the window is, though they knew afterwards that a piece of insulation foam broke off from the external tank and likely hit the shuttle, they didn't know what or if the damaged it had caused, and sadly this window didn't give a view of that wing, not allowing them to know the graveness of the potential damage.
Had they known, there could have been possible rescue plans of the crew from another shuttle, though the possibility of a rescue mission itself would have been dangerous to pull off.
Could they safely ready the next shuttle to launch in time? as well would they current crew of Columbia's mission have had enough living supplies to wait out this rescue mission?
But sadly not knowing of the damage, the Columbia flight crew set up to return to earth like any other re-entry they would have trained for.
Thus we know breaking up upon re-entry due to this hole in the leading edge of the wing that compromised its structure.
Shiptember 2025. My own design starting from sketch. My first year also participating in Shiptember. Thoroughly enjoyed it! #shiptember #shiptember2025 #space
After major advances in spacecraft propulsion, the Zenon space station in the Omikron sector was less and less visited and quickly fell into disrepair. The latest generation of spaceships were able to reach the most inhabited sectors in the system without a stopover. Subsequently, the Xæraba space station in the Qoppa sector became a vibrant hub where trade thrives, expeditions to unknown sectors are set up and is home to the largest shipping company in the entire Laniakea cluster.
