A face-on spiral galaxy has a yellow core. Several spiral arms, dotted with blue stars and star clusters, spiral clockwise around the core. They are crossed by filamentary dust lanes. The arms are somewhat well-defined but asymmetric. One arm curls from about 3 o'clock to 7 o'clock and is mostly separated from the body of the galaxy. In this arm is a bright green dot, the location of the supernova.

The Witches Broom Nebula (NGC 6960, West Veil) through an Astrophotography telescope Seestar S50

Planned for 2 hours of runtime, capture 35 minutes of 10 second exposure (โ‰ˆ210 subs). First denoised in Seestar S50, very light editing in Lightroom.

Anyone up for a Flash Weekend Fundraiser to help two very special kitties? Snowshoe and Scooter both have important upcoming medical procedures. Drop your pledge below and Iโ€™ll launch a GoFundMe for them. Our goal is $5000. This our new partnership with HVSPCA.

The White House belongs to the American people, so if it's okay for him to bulldoze it, we should be able to bulldoze Mar-a-Lago.

This entrancing image shows a few of the tenuous threads that comprise Sh2-308, a faint and wispy shell of gas located 5,200 light-years away in the constellation of Canis Major (The Great Dog).

Sh2-308 is a large bubble-like structure wrapped around an extremely large, bright type of star known as a Wolf-Rayet Star โ€” this particular star is called EZ Canis Majoris. These type of stars are among the brightest and most massive stars in the Universe, tens of times more massive than our own sun, and they represent the extremes of stellar evolution. Thick winds continually poured off the progenitors of such stars, flooding their surroundings and draining the outer layers of the Wolf-Rayet stars. The fast wind of a Wolf-Rayet star therefore sweeps up the surrounding material to form bubbles of gas.

EZ Canis Majoris is responsible for creating the bubble of Sh2-308 โ€” the star threw off its outer layers to create the strands visible here. The intense and ongoing radiation from the star pushes the bubble out farther and farther, blowing it bigger and bigger. Currently the edges of Sh2-308 are some 60 light-years apart!

Beautiful as these cosmic bubbles are, they are fleeting. The same stars that form them will also cause their death, eclipsing and subsuming them in violent supernova explosions.

Donโ€™t let the bugger get you down, you are so much better than he. Canโ€™t believe he got in again either, life is too weird and too short for such low bastards to have much of our bandwidth.

The image shows four panels capturing, on different dates from Sicily, the green flash phenomenon, an optical effect seen at sunrise or sunset. The top two panels display the Sun and the Moon, respectively, near the horizon. The Sun has a bright, slightly flattened disk with a thin green rim or flash at its upper edge, indicating the moment the green light is visible. The Moon shows a similar faint green tint at its upper edge. The bottom two panels feature Venus and Mercury, photographed during twilight, appearing as small, bright dots near the western horizon with subtle green hues at their edges.

Green flash on the Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus.

It's about an atmospheric optical phenomenon, seen at sunrise and sunset, above the upper rim of Sun's disk (but also of the Moon and planets, though harder to see), when the conditions are favorable.
