Everybody loves fall colors in Upstate New York, even people not on Earth! NASA's Earth Observatory posted photos of the Adirondack Mountains beautiful foliage from space that have to be seen.
The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), the newest camera on NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, has captured a spectacular pair of galaxies engaged in a celestial dance of cat and mouse or, in this case, mouse and mouse. Located 300 million light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices,...
For many years, the PlaneWave team has dreamed about creating a perfect telescope for widefield imaging. In 2021, PlaneWave Instruments are writing a new chapter in their pursuit of continued innovation and are excited to introduce the game changing Delta Rho 350 telescope. This f/3 Cassegrain f...
An image of two interacting galaxies known as Arp 273, captured by the Hubble Space Telescope, floats above the earth-bound hustle and bustle of Times Square. (Image credit: Jeremy Lips/Space.com) In August 2012, the Toshiba Vision screen also broadcast the Mars rover Curiosity's touchdown ...

Up to now we have discussed the use of an unfiltered greyscale image as the luminance. This works well with galaxies and other objects having a broad spectral range. However if an object has a specific or narrow spectral emission then a filtered luminance can enhance the nebulosity in the ima...

The H alpha data come from the Local Group Galaxies Survey (Massey et al. 2006, Astrophysical Journal, 131, 2701) and are based on images taken with the Mayall 4-meter telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory, National Optical Astronomy Observatory, which is operated by the Association of ...
our universe is expanding, a galaxies recessional velocity will increase in proportion to its distance from us) are the current methods for determining distances to very remote galaxies. One of the goals of the Hubble Space Telescope and other ongoing astronomical projects is the refinement of metho...
Starburst galaxies are characterized by high infrared luminosities, a sign of the immense light and radiation released from its young massive stars. Although it cannot be observed directly because of obscuring dust and an edge-on orientation, astronomers have good evidence for a central bar within ...
