The Elephant's Trunk nebula is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust in the star cluster IC 1396 – an ionized gas region located in the constellation Cepheus about 2,400 light years away from Earth. The piece of the nebula shown above is the dark, dense globule IC 1396A; it is commonly called the Elephant's Trunk nebula because of its appearance at visible light wavelengths, where there is a dark patch with a bright, sinuous rim. The bright rim is the surface of the dense cloud that is being illuminated and ionized by a very bright, massive star that is just to the west of IC 1396A. The entire IC 1396 region is ionized by the massive star, except for dense globules that can protect themselves from the star's harsh ultraviolet rays.(Explore Scientific ED127, ZWO ASI2600MM, ASIAIR, EAF, EFW, AM5, Antlia SHO 3nm, Pixinsight, Photoshop).
Having fun in my studio today. I was playing with water and stones and flash. It took a few attempts of dropping stones into a small fish tank with my left hand and firing off a burst of shots with flash with my right hand. I used electronic shutter for 30 frames per sec. I was surprised my Godox flash kept up just fine. This is what I ended up with. Then I had to come up with a creative name.
ESO’s La Silla observatory in Chile is unavoidably photogenic from every angle — including unusual and creative perspectives such as this one!

Interstellar Pelican Cloud Covers Sun Spans Tampa Bay Florida - IMRAN™
We all often recognize animal shapes or human faces in the shapes of clouds that form and dissiipate above us every day. But sometimes the shapes can be so specific it makes me wonder. I often see general bird shapes, sometimes doves, and eagles. But a pelican?! There is absolutely no tweaking done to try to make a pelican shape. This is exactly how the cloud formation was in front of across Tampa Bay, as this massive god of interstellar pelicans seemed to cover the sun and span the width of Tampa Bay. You can make out the white caps in the water on this very windy day. I have one purely unedited image of the same pelican cloud. But this one was made from 4 Nikon D300 photos providing a lot more detail and smoothness of colors if you zoom in.

Old Schools, University of Cambridge. 800th Anniversary light show. Real photo: tried longish exposure here to allow blending of diffrent projections on the building. Worked quite well, I thought:-)
Best with Cambridge's psychedelic export: Pink Floyd and their "Interstellar Overdrive" track (one of my favourite from this band): uk.youtube.com/watch?v=emlJKhLZOh8 .

The first observed interstellar comet was in Leo at the night and approaching the perihelion, 2.007AU from Sun on December 8, 2019. It was drifting toward southwest or lower left on the frame. The magnitude was predicted as 17.3 at the night. Relatively bright galaxy NGC 2903, mag. 9.7 was near to the west, and galaxy NGC 2916, mag. 12.0 was also near to the east on the frame.
It showed nothing of greenish or ionic activity on the photo taken with the small equipment for amateur, though dust tail was visible slightly toward northwest. North is up, and east is to the left.
Sun distance: 2.466 AU
Earth distance: 2.942 AU
"Detection of CN gas in Interstellar Object 2I / Borisov" by Fitzsimmons A et al October 2, 2019
There came out a report claiming detection of CN gas (wavelength 388nm in ultraviolet range) in the comet recently, and I hoped to detect ionic color, though it was a bit too far from Sun.
It was possible to detect greenish ionic activity of C/2012 S1 ISON on September 16, 2013. The location was 1.9AU from Sun.

It was impossible to detect ionic activity of C/2012 S1 ISON on January 31, 2013 at 4.08AU, though dust activity was detected.

News headlines: Aliens have invaded our planet! They have abducted hundreds of millions of people around the world. They all disappeared at once, in a split second, causing chaos and confusion. The Air Force shot down several UFOs (hobbyist balloons). They even shot down a Chinese spy balloon. Don’t worry: these Chinese spy balloons were also flying over America during Trump’s presidency, but the NWO Deep State never informed him. Quick, rollout Project Blue Beam 2.0 (false flag alien invasion psyops)! We must cover up these strange disappearances. “Welcome to the age of the polycrisis.” “Never waste a good crisis.”

Harvard: PHYSICAL CONSTRAINTS ON UNIDENTIFIED AERIAL PHENOMENA (Draft under review)
“Nevertheless, the coincidences between some orbital parameters of ‘Oumuamua and IM2 inspires us to consider the possibility that an artificial interstellar object could potentially be a parent craft that releases many small probes during its close passage to Earth, an operational construct not too dissimilar from NASA missions. These “dandelion seeds” could be separated from the parent craft by the tidal gravitational force of the Sun or by a maneuvering capability. A small ejection speed far away could lead to a large deviation from the trajectory of the parent craft near the Sun. The changes would manifest both in arrival time and distance of closest approach to Earth. With proper design, these tiny probes would reach the Earth or other Solar system planets for exploration, as the parent craft passes by within a fraction of the Earth-Sun separation - just like ‘Oumuamua did.”
“Equipped with a large surface-to-mass ratio of a parachute, technological “dandelion seeds” could slow down in the Earth’s atmosphere to avoid burnup and then pursue their objectives wherever they land.”
“Within a close range to a star, extraterrestrial technological probes could use starlight to charge their batteries and liquid water as their fuel.”
“What would be the overarching purpose of the journey? In analogy with actual dandelion seeds, the probes could propagate the blueprint of their senders. As with biological seeds, the raw materials on the planet’s surface could also be used by them as nutrients for self-replication or simply scientific exploration. It is important to note, that given the time scales associated with the propulsion scheme discussed here, it is unreasonable to assert that the intention of any such probe launched in the far distant past, has anything to do with the human species. More likely, and similar to NASA’s missions – the goal would be scientific and exploratory in nature.”
“Are there any functioning extraterrestrial probes near Earth? We do not know.”
“Consequently, the mothership/probe scenario is more energetically viable.”
“In principle, a multitude of tiny devices can be released from a mothership that passes near Earth.”
“The considerations in this paper imply a useful limit on observations of UAP which bound the hypothetical explanations and can support limitations on interpretations of data.”

Rapture:
“Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.”
“First, the dead who believed in Christ will come back to life. Then, together with them, we who are still alive will be taken in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. In this way we will always be with the Lord.”

Okay, apparently I'm not done with Interstellar yet. Instagram's format preferences kind of forced me to make a 4th scene so I chose Miller's planet and was really satisfied with how nice the Ranger turned out at ~1:175. The scene itself was rather quick work, but that simple glass plate worked way better than the thousands of loose trans-black tiles I originally planned to use for the water surface.

I had the huge pleasure of test folding this wonderful fractal star for Evan Zodl.
Thank you so much, Evan!! :)

A cosmic wanderer for sure. It is the interstellar comet Atlas 3I passing through our solar system. It took me a long time to image it, because of continued bad weather over Belgium. But finally, here it is, and on Christmas...
2 hour exposure with Vixen SD115II refractor and ZWO ASI2600MC camera.
I was so glad that I was able to see this movie in theaters the day after it came out. It instantly became my favorite movie, and I decided that I wanted to make a Ranger. However, after seeing all the amazing Rangers that others have built, I kind of lost interest for awhile.
It wasn't until the digital release that I decided to try. It's taken me since March to complete this, and I nearly gave up multiple times, but I really wanted a Ranger model in my collection, so I kept with it. Here are the end results. It does have some interior detailing, which was actually easier to do than the exterior. Sadly, I don't have to many Computer panel pieces, so it doesn't have a lot of screen like it does in the movie. Also, one last bit. I tried to scale this based on how big the Endurance is (There is an infographic that shows how big the Endurance -With Rangers- is compared to the U.S. Space Shuttle.) I used that to try and get a rough size for my Ranger model, and while it looks a little large when compared to minifigures, I am quite happy with the results.

As a response to the devastating assault launched by the infected Blacktron forces in 2020, the IDC were prompted to develop a new class of Mecha weaponry.
The R&D department was given only one instruction: *** ALL THE GUNS! ***
And thus, the T-REX was born.
T-REX: Tactical Response to Extreme Xenophobia
Technical Specs:
2 main laser cannons, 2 detachable rocket pods, 2 rotary guns, 2 heavy artillery, 2 mixed-use launchers, anti-infantry undercarriage system, and detachable anti-air defenses. Seating two pilots to share the responsibility of driving and destruction, this beast is a FORCE to be reckoned with!
