"Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities."

Dear friends,
Sorry for the "bis repetita", but here is another view of Paris with a different lighting than the previous one (scifi like here). I liked here the river, the bridge (passerelle Debilly) and the yellow veins of the city....
Probably everything has been said about the telescope, but I know that some flickr(girls)friends have great sense of observation and imagination... :-)))
Hugs! :-)
ps : still trying to return comments on my previous pic...sorry...
The Lovell Telescope poking out of the fog. The remaining towers of Fiddler's Ferry (I think) in the background.
This image, taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, shows the colorful "last hurrah" of a star like our sun. The star is ending its life by casting off its outer layers of gas, which formed a cocoon around the star's remaining core. Ultraviolet light from the dying star makes the material glow. The burned-out star, called a white dwarf, is the white dot in the center. Our sun will eventually burn out and shroud itself with stellar debris, but not for another 5 billion years.
Our Milky Way Galaxy is littered with these stellar relics, called planetary nebulae. The objects have nothing to do with planets. Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century astronomers called them the name because through small telescopes they resembled the disks of the distant planets Uranus and Neptune. The planetary nebula in this image is called NGC 2440. The white dwarf at the center of NGC 2440 is one of the hottest known, with a surface temperature of more than 360,000 degrees Fahrenheit (200,000 degrees Celsius). The nebula's chaotic structure suggests that the star shed its mass episodically. During each outburst, the star expelled material in a different direction. This can be seen in the two bowtie-shaped lobes. The nebula also is rich in clouds of dust, some of which form long, dark streaks pointing away from the star. NGC 2440 lies about 4,000 light-years from Earth in the direction of the constellation Puppis.
The material expelled by the star glows with different colors depending on its composition, its density and how close it is to the hot central star. Blue samples helium; blue-green oxygen, and red nitrogen and hydrogen.

Lors du lancement du télescope spatial Hubble il y a 35 ans, personne n'aurait pu imaginer à quel point il allait transformer notre vision de l'espace. Lancé le 24 avril 1990, le télescope poursuit aujourd'hui sa mission. Pour célébrer son anniversaire, la NASA a publié quatre images récentes prises par Hubble, qui prouvent sa pérennité, même après trois décennies !

When the launched 35 years ago, no one would have guessed how much it would shape the way we view space. Launched on April 24, 1990, the telescope continues its mission today. To celebrate its anniversary, NASA released four recent images taken by Hubble that prove its staying power even after three decades !

I'm still practicing my skills on photographing planets. And it's very difficult to focus through a dim image in the viewfinder.

If I read the map correctly, this is a photo of Telescope Peak,the highest point within Death Valley National Park at 3366m above sea level.
Sunset over snow-covered Telescope Peak in the Panamint Valley. I went to Death Valley National Park over a recent weekend and was lucky enough to see this sunset and view on the drive home.
This image is looking back toward the east at the range that marks the western boundry of Death Valley. The Panamint valley runs parllel to Death Valley but is one mountain range further west.
Photo taken in the Panamint Valley near the junction of Highway 190 and Panamint Valley Road (California, USA).
... is the world's largest fully steerable radio telescope. It can operate between 0.1–116 GHz. For more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Bank_Telescope
The Lovell Telescope is a radio telescope. It works by picking up very faint radio signals coming from objects far across the Universe such as galaxies, black holes and exploded stars.
When it was built in 1957, the Lovell Telescope was the largest in the world. At 76 metres across, it is still the world's third-largest steerable telescope.
Uniquely, it is a Grade I Listed Building which carries out world-leading scientific research.
The huge white dish collects radio waves from outer space and concentrates them at the top of the central focus tower. A bigger dish collects more radio waves and can therefore detect fainter objects.
The surface of the dish is covered by 336 separate panels made of galvanised steel. They are painted white to reflect the heat of the Sun and prevent them from warping.
When it snows the telescope controller tips the dish to point at the horizon and all the snow slides out.
The Jodrell Bank Observatory was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2019 due to its pivotal role in transforming our understanding of the universe. It has been instrumental in the study of meteors, quasars, pulsars, and gravitational lenses, and was notably used to track early space probes. It was studying the Crab Nebula at the time. The telescope was famously featured in the Doctor Who episode "Logopolis". The observatory is owned and operated by the University of Manchester and continues to be a major centre for astronomical research and public engagement.
This is a large and remarkable galaxy.
