I'd say I'm surprised. But really I'm not

You get what you focus on.

So focus on what you want.

Five galaxies appear close to each other in the sky. At upper left, a spiral galaxy is tilted, appearing wider than it is tall. It has a glowing yellow center and reddish-brown dust trails that spiral clockwise around it. Above the center is a large elliptical galaxy. Its round, glowing yellow center is surrounded by a fuzzy yellow halo that fades away from the core. Toward the bottom right are three galaxies that appear to touch. The largest is in the center: a nearly vertical, edge-on spiral galaxy. Its glowing yellow core is mostly obscured by reddish-brown dust trails dotted with blue stars. To its bottom left is a smaller, tilted spiral galaxy with a glowing yellow center. Reddish-brown dust trails are dotted with blue stars. One spiral arm appears to touch the vertical galaxy to its right. At the spiral’s bottom right is a lenticular galaxy with a glowing central core in the middle of a hazy yellow disk, appearing almost face-on. It seems to touch the large spiral galaxy above it.

Hubble image of Arp 321, also known as Hickson 40.

This group of galaxies include three spiral galaxies, an elliptical galaxy, and a lenticular (lens-like) galaxy.

Tails of Comet Wierzchoś apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26021...
Some comets are regular guests of our solar neighborhood; others come by only once, never to return. We won’t have another chance to see Comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchoś), which is currently making its way through the inner Solar System.

Growing up with the Echo, Krile Baldesion was exceedingly sensitive to the intentions of others. She could instinctively discern the innermost thoughts and feelings of others. Apathy, intolerance or even hatred could overwhelm her and reduce her to tears

Ever since I was a little girl I knew I wanted to be weird and unsettling.

Two merging galaxies form an abstract shape, which looks a little like an upside down rubber duck. Within the "head" and "body" of the duck are crossed brown swirls, which are dust and gas. The outside of the duck is outlined with hazy yellow swirls, which are streams of stars. Near the "neck" of the duck, at the point where the two merging galaxies touch, and slightly to the right is a bright white blob, surrounded by pink blobs. This is X-ray light from NuStar, which shows emission from an active supermassive black hole in the right galaxy.

Hubble and NuStar image of Arp 299, also known as NGC 3690.

NuSTAR data overlaid on a Hubble image of the interacting galaxy pair show the galaxy on the right has an active supermassive black hole, glowing brightly in X-rays.

#astro Got a clear night after on Friday after 13 wks of cloud and rain. I went for IC443 the Jellyfish Nebula. Just over 6hrs of data. Imaged in SHO, processed in Pixinsight and PS.

Unexplained Shocks Around a White Dwarf Star apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26021...
How is RXJ0528+2838 creating such shock waves? A recently discovered white dwarf star, the farther left of the two largest white spots, RXJ0528+2838, was found 730 light-years away from Earth.

Roses are Red apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26021...
A cosmic bloom of bright young stars sitting atop a stem of glowing hot gas. The rose’s blue-white speckles are among the most luminous stars in the galaxy, with some burning millions of times brighter than the Sun.
