(n.)
-Extreme preoccupation with one's feelings, desires, etc.

A barred spiral galaxy with a bright yellow core, sweeping outer arms against a dark background. A smaller galaxy is visible on the top right.

50 million light-years away, galaxy NGC 1097 & its tiny companion NGC 1097A are locked in a galactic embrace.

The bright knots around NGC 1097’s centre are thought to be large bubbles of glowing hydrogen gas about 750–2500 light-years across.

The central part of the nebula near Pismis 24 has been photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope in very high resolution. This image is a comparison between the Hubble image and the same region taken with my 12.5" f/5 Newtonian telescope. Link: Full image of Pismis 24 and NGC 6357
