By Donald Gialanella, made up of scrap auto transmission parts. A new installation at the Florida Botanical Gardens, one of three by the artist.
I went outside to water the roses this afternoon, and saw this most amazing sky - had to run back into the house to get the camera. The houses blocking my view really made me wish I had a higher vantage point. Only photography could inspire me to conquer my fear of heights...

The Moon moved very close in the sky to Mars the other night, so I took a picture of the two together. The Moon is at the left, 252,000 miles away. Mars is 44.2 million miles away, at the right.

Resembling the puffs of smoke and sparks from a summer fireworksdisplay in this image from NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, these delicate filaments are actually sheets of debris from a stellar explosion in a neighboring galaxy. Hubble's target was a supernova remnant within the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a nearby, small companion galaxy to the Milky Way visible from the southern hemisphere.
Denoted N 49, or DEM L 190, this remnant is from a massive star that died in a supernova blast whose light would have reached Earth thousands of years ago. This filamentary material will eventually be recycled into building new generations of stars in the LMC. Our own Sun and planets are constructed from similar debris of supernovae that exploded in the Milky Way billions of years ago.
