We had to wait for the clouds to clear from obstructing the core, but when they finally moved, they created this beautiful warm glow on the horizon. I can't wait to return to this area.
All my trip was partially ruined by the clkouds. I am sitting in the tent listening to the horrific sounds my friend Ali is making. He is badly sick and really helping :D
THe other sound we hear is probably that of rain droplets. and I have brought the camera to sleep with us :D
Thanks GOD we have to pee and out i come and see some help from the stars and an opportunity to long click my DSLR to get this - the best of my ASTRO photos yet perhaps :D

Under the dark skies of Cape Greco, Cyprus, the Milky Way rises in full glory above the horizon. A glowing circle of light painting frames a lone silhouette, symbolizing a gateway between earth and the cosmos. Captured with a long exposure, this image blends astrophotography and creative light art to reveal the connection between the human spirit and the vast universe.
Shot on a clear summer night, the galactic core and a passing meteor illuminate the heavens while the foreground is bathed in surreal red light. A moment where science, art, and imagination meet under the stars.

Bonjours mes chers amis, j'espère que vous allez très bien ! :3
J'étais à Chmaala avec mon cousin et quelques amis, il était déjà 4h du matin mais j'avais pas de sommeil ! Rien à foutre dans la tante parce que tout le monde dort; C'est normal puisqu'ils sont tous m7aaaaaaaacheeechine !! ( BIENVENU AU NORD ) :3 :3 L’ami qui dort à coté de moi n'a pas arrêté pas de ronfler ( Chkhaaiiiiiiry kbiiiiire !! fere ferrrrreeeee ) la nouvelle symphonie était de Mozart, j'ai essayé le maximum possible de s'adapter mais du temps à autre il change le rythme et il commence le VRAI R&B accompagner par des GAZ toxiques SHIIIIIITTTTTT, I DON'T WANT LIVE ON THIS PLANET ANYMORE ) xD Celle ci est une autre histoire que je vais vous la raconter après. Alors qu'est ce que j'ai fait ?! J’ai pris ma chérie avec moi (Canon 6D), mon iPod et j'ai sorti à la plage pour regarder les Etoiles et entendre du clapotis !!
S'asseoir sous le ciel de Chmaala pour compter les Etoiles, non on ne peut pas ! Mais contempler dans la beauté du créateur et mettre les points sur les i de notre vie YEP. Pourquoi pas ! xP
Notre vie est comme le ciel, assez de point disperser comme les étoiles, une brille plus que l'autre ! Les points qui brillent assez sont les points positives, les beaux souvenirs, nos meilleures expériences, ... et le vise versa, mais attention d'oublier qu'il y a la lune, le truc qui brille plus fort que le reste. Cette lune est notre foi en dieu, notre confiance en soi, ... alors n'essayer jamais de perdre la beauté de la lune en comptant les étoiles.
NB: N'oubliez pas d'augmenter le maximum possible de lumière de vos téléphones si vous êtes connecté avec ;)
Prenez soin de vous.

Hope you like it
I did a catering event out in Lodi last night, and when I got out the sun had been set for a few hours. Everything was so dark that I could actually pick out the cloudiness of the galaxy in the night sky without using an app to find it. Its such an amazing experience to be able to see the Milky Way with the naked eye.
Most Dramatic Space Missions of 2016 ( The Journey of Space Missions in 2016 )
It's been a busy year of transition around the solar system. Some spacecraft crashed on distant planets, while others were found after we thought they were lost. And some cool stuff began to happen with new missions, such as exploring Jupiter and figuring out how useful inflatable structures will be in space. Here are some of the mission transitions of 2016.
1. Philae
2. Schiaparelli
4. Hitomi/ASTRO-H/New X-ray Telescope (NeXT)
5. Falcon 9 rocket + Amos-6
6. Tiangong-1
7. Juno
8. ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter
9. BEAM (International Space Station)
10. International Space Station one-year mission
11. Cassini
12. Russia's Progress resupply vehicle
Here you go:
1. Philae had quite the ride after separating from its parent spacecraft, Rosetta, in November 2014. The little lander bounced on its first contact with Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko and flew for an incredible two hours, finally coming to rest in a spot too shady to charge its solar-powered self. Philae did a few dozen hours of science, went into hibernation, and only gave a few peeps in the months afterwards until the European Space Agency gave up trying to contact it.Philae was found in one of the suspected landing zones.

2. STEREO-B : One of the twin Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatories (STEREO-B) stopped transmitting in October 2014, then, this August, NASA's Deep Space Network finally locked on to the spacecraft.Unfortunately, NASA couldn't recover the spacecraft because it was uncontrolled and far away from Earth, at about two Earth-sun distances. With the limited data the agency had, it tried to stabilize the spacecraft,but failed.
stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov/behind_status.shtml
3. Schiaparelli : Schiaparelli separated from the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter and made its descent as planned on Oct. 19, but something happened along the way and it crashed. What exactly happened is still being figured out by an investigation board
www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Science/ExoMars/Schiapar...
4. Hitomi/ASTRO-H/New X-ray Telescope (NeXT) : Hitomi was an X-ray astronomy satellite from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, which was supposed to look at high-energy processs across the universe. The spacecraft made it into space as planned on Feb. 17, but controllers lost contact with it permanently on March 26.
5. Falcon 9 rocket and Amos-6 : On Sept. 1, a Falcon 9 rocket by SpaceX was on the pad undergoing a standard static fire test, before launching Amos-6 — an Israeli communications satellite. The rocket exploded and took the satellite with it, luckily causing no injuries at Cape Canaveral Space Launch Complex 40.
www.seeker.com/spacex-elon-musk-falcon-rocket-explosion-l...
6. Tiangong-1 : Tiangong-1 was China's first space station — not a full station, but a small prototype to expand its space program in the future. It launched as a one-piece station in September 2011 and was visited by three spacecraft: Shenzhou 8 (uncrewed), Shenzhou 9 (crewed) and Shenzhou 10 (crewed)
7. Juno : Juno arrived at Jupiter on July 4 and has been making scientific observations for the past few months.More detailed findings will come after Juno has been active for a while.
www.seeker.com/computer-glitch-nixes-juno-science-run-at-...
8. ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter : The new Trace Gas Orbiter, which arrived at Mars in October, is designed to look at trace gases in the Red Planet's atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the major force on Mars, but there are smaller portions of the atmosphere that are less understood. One famous example is methane, which has been measured in different abundances by different telescopes, orbiters and even NASA's Curiosity rover.
TGO is highly elliptical right now, but over time it will use aerobraking — skimming through the thinnest part of Mars' atmosphere — to lower itself into a science orbit about 400 kilometers from the surface.
www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Science/ExoMars/How_TGO_...
9. ISS BEAM : BEAM was inflated on May 26, but the attempt was called off because there was more air pressure than expected inside the module (possibly caused by fabric layers sticking together). A second attempt on May 28 was successful. Astronauts have entered BEAM a few times since to collect air samples and do some other routine monitoring, but for the most part it just sits by itself, attached to the Tranquility node.
The International Space Station is an excellent location to do long-term research in everything from plants to human physiology. It's also a great spot for companies to test out new processes and ideas. One recent one is the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module, also known as BEAM. Bigelow has two inflatable mini-space stations that have been in orbit for several years to test how inflatables behave in low-Earth orbit. The next step for the company was to install an inflatable module to the ISS.
www.seeker.com/space-station-now-has-inflatable-digs-1832...
10. ISS one-year mission : While a lot of astronauts have spent six months on the station, NASA hopes to have longer missions to prepare for a possible journey to Mars in the coming decades. In 2015, Mikhail Kornienko (Roscosmos) and Scott Kelly (NASA) blasted off to spend nearly a year on the orbiting complex. It was the first time humans had spent so long in space since the Mir space station era of the 1990s. The two arrived safely on Earth again in March.
Kelly got most of the press in the United States — he's a twin, a great photographer and was charmingly laconic and funny on Twitter. Kelly's twin brother, Mark, was also an astronaut and volunteered to take part in the same genetic studies so that investigators could take advantage of a unique opportunity. It will take years for all the data to be processed and analyzed, but Kelly's and Kornienko's flight is expected to help scientists learn more about the effects of space on the human body.
11.Cassini : The Cassini spacecraft has provided an incredible perspective on Saturn and its system for the past 12 years. We've seen water jets from Enceladus, lakes on Titan and strange vertical structures in Saturn's rings. The spacecraft is now low on fuel after exploring the solar system since 1997, however, and investigators want to steer Cassini into Saturn so it doesn't accidentally hit a potentially habitable moon.
Cassini will gradually move between Saturn and its rings — a first in space exploration — to better understand some of the structures of the particles that make up Saturn's crown. In September 2017, it will make a last swan dive into Saturn, taking atmospheric measurements as long as possible so that investigators can learn more about the planet's interior structure.
12. Russia's Progress resupply vehicle : On Dec. 1, Russia lost contact with its unmanned Progress space station resupply vehicle shortly after launch from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The cargo ship was carrying 2.4 tons of food, supplies and equipment and officials confirmed that it failed to reach its proper orbit, ultimately succumbing to gravity and burning up in the atmosphere. Though obviously a huge setback for the Russian space agency and space station operations, the orbiting outpost had a good level of supplies in reserve. This was the second failed Progress launch in less than two years. The failure of the April 2015 Progress mission was blamed on a problem with the Soyuz launch system.

This is End !!!
Mars is a tough place to land on — just ask any of the various groups that have tried to send landers over the years, and failed (such as NASA, the former Soviet Union and the European Space Agency). While ESA thought it had learned the lessons of the Beagle 2 failed landing in 2003, it turned out that another landing demonstrator called Schiaparelli didn't make it to the surface.

Multiwavelength View of Supernova 1987A
Astronomers combined observations from three different observatories to produce this colorful, multiwavelength image of the intricate remains of Supernova 1987A.
The red color shows newly formed dust in the center of the supernova remnant, taken at submillimeter wavelengths by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) telescope in Chile.
The green and blue hues reveal where the expanding shock wave from the exploded star is colliding with a ring of material around the supernova. The green represents the glow of visible light, captured by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. The blue color reveals the hottest gas and is based on data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory.
The ring was initially made to glow by the flash of light from the original explosion. Over subsequent years the ring material has brightened considerably as the explosion’s shock wave slams in it.
Supernova 1987A resides 163,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud, where a firestorm of star birth is taking place.
The ALMA, Hubble, and Chandra images at the bottom of the graphic were used to make up the multiwavelength view.

A little fun in the mountains of North Carolina. I can tell you I am completely addicted to the night sky. I shot this off of the back deck of our rental during a stay with some friends in Banner Elk. We were in the house playing euchre and my cameras were running on the deck. The milky way was out for a while but then it clouded over. It sure does suck because I was really getting some amazing shots and definitely wasn't ready to be done!

Hungry Black Hole
A supermassive black hole has been tearing apart and eating a star for so long it set a new record.
According to researchers, this tidal disruption event was 10 times longer than any other star’s death, which either means the black hole was destroying an incredibly large star or it thoroughly torn apart a smaller star.
The team of researchers began observing the TDE that destroyed the too close star in July 2005, using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and Swift satellite and ESA’s WMM-Newton.
This black hole, known as XJ1500+0154, is at the center of a host galaxy about 1.8 billion light-years from Earth. It reached peak brightness in June 2008, and has been on researchers’ radars ever since.
“For most of the time we’ve been looking at this object, it has been growing rapidly,” James Guillochon of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass. and co-author of the study said. “This tells us something unusual — like a star twice as heavy as our Sun — is being fed into the black hole.”
Finding this drawn out death of a star by black hole shows not only that supermassive black holes can grow, but it also gives researchers more information about advanced black holes and how they came to be.
According to the researchers, the star that the black hole is feeding on will diminish in the next several years, and will therefore cause the brightness of XJ1500+0154 to fade as well.
