a digital painting showing the famous Hubble/James Webb image of the Pillars of Creation nebula, with its three tall fingers. the image has been heavily abstracted to be a collection of lines and polygons, and the colors have been saturated, such that it contains strong blues, yellows, and pinks. dots of stars can be seen throughout

Whipping out the Pillars of Creation again because it makes me happy

(artistic interpretation based on a combination of Hubble and James Webb imaging)

Met Museum photo of an Ancient Egyptian gold head ornament viewed from the front against a grey background. The headband is made of hammered sheet gold, the ends of which have been tapered to a narrower width and rolled to form loops. A string would have threaded through the loops to fasten the band around the head at the back. The front of the band is decorated with a central head of an antlered stag, identified as the Persian fallow deer (Dama mesopotamica). The stag has two large antlers, large ears and a triangular-shaped head. It is flanked on either side by two gazelle heads. The gazelle heads have long ears and long curved horns which point outwards at the tip. Between the animal heads are four 8-pointed flowers or stars. Dimensions: height of central stag 8.9, length of headband 49.5 cm. 

Dated to the Second Intermediate period (c. 1648-1540 BC) when northern Egypt was ruled by the Hyksos from the ancient Near East. Said to be part of a group of objects found in the Eastern Delta near Avaris, the Hyksos capital. The headband shows a mix of ancient Near Eastern and Egyptian artistic styles.

Detail from a silhouette drawing in black ink of a dragonfly, photographed with a penny and the traditional Chinese brush it was drawn with. The detail is very tiny and intricate. The penny could eclipse the dragonfly entirely with room to spare.

Boring hot takes:
-more people should exfoliate
-videogame and social media addiction has been normalized
-complimenting strangers is fun
-Halloween is the perfect excuse to confuse children
-Homemade costumes > store bought costumes
-Covid-19 exposed hustle culture and now companies are retaliating

These alien planets are astronomers’ favourites: here’s why Space scientists look back on 30 years of exoplanet discoveries β€” from rows of massive β€˜super-Earthsβ€˜ to worlds with perfectly synchronized orbits.

This week (!) is the 30th anniversary of the announcement of 51 Pegasi b, the first exoplanet found orbiting a star like our Sun - since then, we've found over 6,000!

To celebrate, @alexwitze.bsky.social and @nature.com collected some astronomers' favourite planets:

Zohran Mamdani tells CNN:

"If Netanyahu comes to deliver a speech at the United Nations General Assembly in New York next year while I am mayor, I will move to honour the ICC arrest warrant issued in The Hague against him, just as I would against Putin. He is responsible for the genocide in Gaza.”
