Anyone with access to a DSLR camera and a tripod (or a steady surface) can take stunning photos of the night sky with all its glorious stars. You will even start to see some Nebulae, Galaxies, Globular Clusters,the Milky Way, Meteorites, Auroras, and more. ...
The “Einstein cross” pattern forms as light from the distant supernova is lensed as it passes a galaxy that sits within a cluster of galaxies, on its way to Earth. In the image above, the many red galaxies are members of the massive MACS J1149.6+2223 cluster, which creates distorted ...
The Trifid Nebula is one of the youngest star-forming regions in our sky. It includes a unique combination of different types of nebulae – a red emission nebula (hydrogen), a blue reflection nebula (dust reflected by starlight), and a dark nebula (apparent ‘gaps’ in the dense dust)....
The eagerly anticipated telescope will capture unprecedented images of some of the deepest realms of space, where the earliest galaxies formed. But the powerful space instrument will also devote considerable time — a full quarter of its first year and l
The live broadcast camera operators of China’s national TV were clearly very happy. It was magic hour time and the light of the setting sun was spectacularly perfectly shining on the huge square behind the 3 renaissance buildings of Chateau Laffitte
They come from different places and galaxies. The fact that we don’t feel to belong is because we don’t. Sure I can see that I’m in a place where people do different things and therefore it feels off, but every day, all day, all my life? That’s not a feeling we make up....

across. It was the first black hole to be imaged directly. The existence of even larger black holes, each with a mass equal to 10 billion Suns, can be inferred from the energetic effects on gas swirling at extremely high velocities around the centre ofNGC 3842 andNGC 4889, galaxies near ...
