I like space a lot... and I'm uber fucking political. Was gonna make this a space specific blog but now it's just general- fandom and political shit in here too.

I think people trying their darn hardest to fix a broken machine can be really beautiful in a poetic way. Forgive me if this is poorly written and truthfully in part my thoughts are a bit of a vent here but.
I spend so much time and money trying to get my 30+ year old vehicle that is *known* for breaking down, known for being a shitbox. It's not perfect, it's not reliable, but I still love him. Even when he breaks down on the side of the freeway, I still try. Despite that it would be better for me if I got a more reliable vehicle, I still try. I still try to fix him, despite the fact he's broken, and may continue to break so horribly because of flawed designs.
I think I try so hard because I see myself in this old and worn Jeep. To me it feels that I must keep trying to fix him, because if I keep trying for this worn machine, then surely someone can be patient and persistent enough to help me as I do him. There are times I want to just give up, but if I do, who else would try as hard? Who else would love something like him as hard?
And these are questions I ask if anyone would do for me. I feel inherently flawed, wrong for the world I am in, because I do not work as smoothly as others do. I struggle to do things others don't seem to struggle with, and then I look at my Jeep. Who was supposed to be able to handle a long three hour freeway climb but didn't, and I see myself in that. Who is supposed to be capable of many things....but just fail to do so and needs help to be able to function once again.
#is it poetic or am i just crazy#maybe i'm just crazy#jeeps#am i just a broken machine too?#vent post#i'm just an astrophysicist maybe art is not meant for me#idk i just feel like i'm a massive bad luck charm

Watching a film called Jesus Camp for my college class rn and fucking hell, the propaganda for Bush is damn near the same for Trump now. Like I knew that President was bad and similar- but not to this extent. It's so damn near the same.

I love the really good questions! There a few misconceptions so I will do my best to correct them- just means I should explain a few things with more detail! And some of these you are actually right with your predictions hehehe.
Stars and Brown Dwarfs
Honestly I am a bit surprised to hear that you are already somewhat familiar with Brown dwarfs already! No offense intended, I just do not hear a lot of people outside of the field talk about these because most are interested in black holes for example or...*sigh* Mars, or aliens. I have beef with Mars now because of recent events with politics. Anywho-
Quick note: Binary star systems are not just hot companion stars to cooler supergiants, they can be combinations of all kinds of different stars! This is important to note when I get to my clarifying answer for Neutron stars.
Also! You are correct in your thought, some (not all) Brown dwarfs can appear magenta. My friend who researches them has a rendition of a magenta brown dwarf from a video game as her laptop's background picture. She's a nerd. /pos (I LITERALLY HAVE A BLACK HOLE AS MY RESEARCH LAPTOP'S BACKGROUND I AM NO BETTER). But uh, yeah brown dwarfs colours range from darker reds->magenta depending on how dim they are.
Nebula
So you are correct, gas in a vacuum would disperse (the particles would do a lil jiggy jiggy bounce around away from each other) , however Space is not a perfect vacuum, it still has matter scattered about and is not totally empty. The way these hydrogen gas clouds do not disperse is because of gravity! Even those tiny little particles have a gravitational force!!!
Some gas clouds do show some amount of expansion, but that is usually still in a balance with gravity until something triggers the star formation process.
Planetary Nebula
I actually kept it fairly simple in my intial explanation of the brief mention of the star life cycle because that shit can be a convulsive game of match the following. So technically everything you said is in fact correct, there's just some technicalities to it so let me try to break it down.
So the mass of the star will affect which type of star corpse it will become. Masses tend to allign with the star spectral types so O and B type stars have the most amount of mass and thus when they die they tend to become the denest objects in the universe, every other star defaults to planetary nebula
The white dwarf left behind stars like our Sun (A F G K M spectral types) burns until it theoretically dims down to a black dwarf.
Some stars (typically B) when they explode do become Neutron stars first before becoming blackholes- this happens because these stars are usually in a binary star system, so they have a buddy. One of three things will happen. Firstly, that companion star explodes and some of that matter is absorbed into the neutron star and it exceeded 3 solar masses and became a black hole....or the neutron star started cannibalizing the companion star through...accretion. :3 The last way a neutron star can become a black hole is through two neutron stars essentially having a car crash into each other.
Black Holes and Neutron Stars
Okay so ik I described black holes as a sphere...which tbf all the evidence we have suggests spherical shape, but their shape is actually a lot more complicated than that so...I'm linking a YouTube video that explains that fairly well
youtube
Now, to address the question on how quasars are formed- yes we do know how! They're "formed" when the supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies pull in all of that gas and matter surrounding it- basically it's actively accreting matter. I like to think of these as a stage/process of a supermassive black hole's life because all of them at one point have been or will be, quasars. This is where the term Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) comes in too, which a quasars are a type of AGN.
For the common misconception, yes matter more or less "falls" in or pulled in, not sucked in. It's...like that a black hole isn't using a straw to eat/drink their matter and more "pouring" (gravitationally pulling) matter into them.
Also! Yes the Sun will NOT become a black hole, nor will it become a Neutron Star!! Sorry for the confusion. The Sun simply isn't massive enough- if it was we would have to be further away from it as it would be hotter, brighter, and a lot more radioactive.
When I say the core (the center ball of the Star basically, this is like a spherical fireplace of hydrogen and other elements depending on age of the Star) needs to be 1-3 solar masses, that means specifically that *center* sphere has to be the mass of the sun- the core of the sun is not going to be all of the Sun's mass, only a fraction of it. So a Star with a core totaled around a solar mass....that Star's total mass is way more.
As for the question about atomic clocks: It seems that NASA made note of these fact and they're fairly credible so yes, as for the specifics of why Neutron stars can* be more accurate than an atomic clock I am personally not as familiar with. That said, NASA also states it's the sub-microsecond stability that makes neutron stars rival human made atomic clocks. It's also important to note that neutron stars do slow as they age but...stars take forever to age yk.
Star Clusters
This was something I didn't explain as well as I should have intially. The older stars are actually closer to the center, despite the fact they are typically in the halos. It was actually using the older stars that helped us prove that there was something at the center of our galaxy. Younger star clusters tend to be in the disks of galaxies like our own Milky Way. Attached here should be a photo of diagram.

The bulge there is going to be the center, and as you notice most of the globular clusters tend to be closer to the bulge.
Galaxies
You likely never noticed how big they are because well, you are in a very light polluted area. You can actually see our own Milky Way in the sky if you are in an area dark enough for it! It's huge.
Now galaxies are not bound by their AGNs (often active black holes- quasars), they're bound and held together by their dark matter halos. That said, galaxies in their local group are gravitationally bound together, and they did in fact form near each other from the beginning. :3
hello hello :DDD would you like to talk about space??? (i read the thread in the ace community)
i don't know how to tell you how much i know,, but ,,, random question time: what's your favorite celestial body (and why)?
No need to stress over how to tell me how much you know! Since we're on my blog I'll just yap teehee. Choosing a favourite celestial object is *so* hard because there is so many to choose from, but space do be huge. And old. Before I get to my two specific favourites I'll do an overview of what the major objects in space are. I will not being going over constellations.
Planets and Moons
I'm going to introduce them jointly as most people are familiar with what they are as we live on a planet with a huge moon haha. According to NASA, Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a planet as "any of the large bodies that orbit the sun in the solar system." However this was further specified by the IAU in 2006- likely because the old definition was specific to our solar system and very broad. The IAU provide a planet must satisfy the three following requires.
It must orbit a star (originally the wording was the Sun but modern astronomers use star in place as again- the Sun is our specific star).
It must be big enough to form a spherical shape by gravity.
It must be big enough to clear objects from its orbital path. (NASA seems to add "of a similar size" to this as, for example, Jupiter has the Trojan Asteroids in it's orbit.)
Pluto was demoted because of rule three specifically as it's orbit goes right into the Kuiper belt; and the additional dfn provided by NASA makes that case stronger with its moon Charon.
Moons are just smaller objects that orbit planets- at least that's what I will say on them as this was longer than I meant it to be.
Side note: other objects in solar systems that are not moons or planets or...dwarf planets are asteroids, comets and meteoroids. These are basically left over material from the formation of our solar system. They don't get their own section despite the fact they deserve it as I'm an...interstellar->extra/inter-galactic space nerd, not a moon/planet/asteroid/etc space nerd.
Stars and Brown Dwarfs
These objects, but maybe more specifically the Sun's stellar physics, is what drew my autistic little ass into astronomy/physics to begin with, and while technically Brown Dwarfs aren't stars....against my better judgement and my friend who researches them, I'm lumping them together here. Stars are giant balls of hot gas that are able to fuse, "burn", Hydrogen into Helium and so on.
Brown dwarfs are not as hot as stars are but they aren't planets because they also do go through nuclear fusion- but instead of the normal hydrogen it fuses a limited supply of a heavier isotope of it; deuterium into helium and releases energy like a star (as per Caltech). These objects are dark in visible light but glow in infrared. After these objects burn up their deuterium, they tend to go into a cool contracting phase while glowing. These are commonly called failed stars but that's a bit of a misconception because these are not stars nor are they planets. It irritates the shit out of my friend who studies these objects when they are referred to as such.
All brown dwarfs and stars do fit into the Hertzsprung–Russell (HR) diagram, which tells us how young, how bright, and how hot each object is. That diagram cuts off at M stars traditionally but brown dwarfs continue the pattern. These objects are also classified by spectral type which goes by the same information as the HR diagram.
Spectral types from hottest/youngest to coolest/oldest: O B A F G K M || L T Y
Lty are brown dwarfs.
Nebula
These objects are star forming regions in space! Often referred to as stellar nurseries by people- there's kind of no better way to describe these hydrogen rich areas, I say rich because hydrogen makes up about 90% of the gas present in these objects. Two of the popular nebulae are the Orion Nebula and Eagle Nebula (contains the Pillars of Creation).
Planetary Nebula
So despite the name- these are actually not planet forming nebula, astronomers thought they were at first hence the name...but then we figured out what they actually were. The name just stuck (unfortunately imo). Planetary nebula are actually dead stars that are not massive (aka stars of spectral types A to M). These are formed when the star explodes, ejecting it's outter layers to the space around it and leaving the core (now a white dwarf) in the center.
As a G type Star, our very own Sun will have this fate when it explodes. In like five billion years- doubt humans will last that long
Black Holes and Neutron Stars
These beautiful objects are often considered to be the most extreme objects in our known universe, and both are the products of O and B type (supermassive/massive) stars exploding. These stars supernovas are much more violent because of how big they are so more extreme objects are left in it's wake. Black holes are characterized by the following.
Infinite density; yeah you read that right. It's hard to explain but basically at the center of the black hole there is a singularity- matter gets crushed down to an infinitly small point and the laws of physics as we know them break down. Aka since the gravity at this point is infinity we can't make meaningful calculations here.
Event Horizon; basically where the "black" part of the black hole begins. It is the surface of the black hole, but unlike the earth's or even the sun's, it is the boundary of which escape is impossible, even for light, which is why we see a sphere of black with light around it.
Black holes also have accretion disks, which are dust, rocks, and other matter that are swirling around/toward, typically, a black hole in the center. These are moving so fast that friction causing them to burn. However black holes are not the only objects with accretion disks; other massive bodies like protostars can have these too. Quasars are black holes with super fucking bright accretion disks that emit electromagnetic radiation, they are also referred to as AGN as they are the cores of galaxies. Most cores of a galaxy has a core that has gone through this short phase- including our own.
A common misconception: they are not like roombas sucking things into them, their extreme gravity is *pulling* things into it- it's like how meteors (that burn up in the sky) and meteorites (survived their burning) fall onto Earth.
Neutron stars are formed when the core is 1-3 solar massives (basically mass of the sun times 1-3) collapse, but the formed neutrons (from the protons and electrons smacking eachother in the formation) are strong enough to stop further collapse. Any star with more massive cores become black holes. These are characterized by the following;
Extreme, not infinite, density. Often these stars have masses greater than the sun condensed down into like. The size of a city. Super small, but super dense.
Critical case of the zoomies: but like...spinning zoomies. These spin super fast- and because they spin super fast they can emit beams of radiation making them into a Pulsar.
Strong ass magnetic field, like trillions of times stronger than the Earth's. This is because the magnetic field lines of the old star were compressed down- packing it much tighter which increases the magnetic flux (measure of field lines passing through an object- but let's simplify it more and call it field strength). If they are even *stronger*, like a thousand times stronger than the normal trillions, they are then Magnetars.
Star Clusters
There are three distinct types of these clusters ahem, groups of stars.
Globular Clusters: These are groups of really old stars that form and ar tightly packed together. These usually form in the outskirts of galaxies, known as the halos. These also have a more spherical shape than the other two. I think of these as like...the retirement homes of stars. A popular example of one is the Great Hercules Cluster (M13).
Open Clusters: These are groups of younger stars (with a few old ones) that typically form in the arms of spiral galaxies (galaxies like our own). They are not as tightly packed like globs, hence the name open. They're like the neighborhood full of kids and teens basically. A very popular example is actually the Seven Sisters! (Known also as Subaru or Pleiades). You can see that one with the naked eye.
Embedded Clusters: These are groups of very young and newly forming stars. Basically the hospital full of newborns and baby stars. These clusters have a lot of gas too. This cluster is the precursor to both open and globular clusters. A popular example is the Trapezium Cluster within the Orion Nebula.
Embedded Cluster vs Nebula: The difference really is just that the embedded cluster is actively forming stars from my understanding tbh- ECs are basically open clusters with a lot of gas still whereas nebula are just huge gassy areas containing these.
Galaxies
Arguably the biggest objects in space- these are collections of all of the other objects mentioned gravitationally bound together. Mind you the definition commonly given specifically mentions billions of stars and surrounding gas. Typically, a galaxy will also have a black hole at the center. There are also several different types of these.
1. Elliptical Galaxies: These galaxies are characterized by being more spherical/ellitpical with billions of old stars. Globular clusters on fucking crack basically. They have minimal star forming regions and new stars usually end up forming as a result of collisions.
2. Spiral Galaxies: Unlike the prior type, these are characterized by being a disk object with arms (those with more prominent arms are barred spirals) that extend from the dense center. They have a lot more gas than Ellipticals and this have more star forming areas. Thus meaning, they're younger. Both Andromeda and the Milky Way are spirals.
3. Irregular Galaxies: These are galaxies with no defined shape and can't be defined as elliptical or spiral. They're often usually small....but there are cases of huge ass ones.
There are galaxies referred to as Starburst galaxies, they can be any of the forementioned types. They're only characterized by the higher than average star formation rate.
My Favourite two Objects
I cannot choose between these two objects so I'll hand over both.
Sagittarius A*: This is the supermassive black hole at the center of our very own galaxy- so I have a little silly attachment to it. Even though there are closer black holes- it's even my profile picture! And and and! I've been to a telescope involved in the Event Horizon Telescope mission- which was simply to get a picture of Sag A*
Triangulum Galaxy: This is a starburst spiral galaxy in the constellation....get this....Triangulum. This mother fucker is a triangle in a triangle and I fucking love that.
#space is cool#i agree with the wahoo#and yeah I love stars and black holes#i love black holes for the fact they are black holes too.#i love stars for stars though#my first love was stars#galaxies#neutron stars#pulsars#quasars#information vomit ong#Youtube

Misinformation Watch: Matpat
There's been a recent misconception about Matthew Patrick/Matpat that I desperately have to correct.
NO. Matpat is not a politician now.
He is not in Congress.
He did not win any elections.
Matpat (and Stephanie Patrick, for that matter, let's not forget her) are actually working WITH a couple of actual Congressional reps as part of a bipartisan group called the Congressional Creators Caucus, or the Creator Economy Caucus.
They are trying to educate lawmakers about online content creators and their needs, as a couple of long-running creators themselves, as this is an economic space that affects a significant amount of Americans on all sides. They are aiming to influence policy, but are not actually creating policies themselves. Considering the mess that the TikTok "ban" created, this could be such an amazing help.
But NO. Matpat is not in Congress and is not running for an election anytime soon.
Please reblog, pass this around, because I don't want to spend hours correcting every single "Matpat is in Congress now?" posts, especially since I can't tell which ones are just jokes and which ones genuinely believe it.

Hey just a quick check in- now that musk is like severely imploding on trump and their severed ties
Yall won't forget this part right?
Yall won't forget he's still a massive scumbag right? That he's still a nazi right? That won't get lost in translation right???
(I don't THINK it'll get forgotten but I really want to remind people that just because Musk is now bashing trump for all the shit we've known about him for awhile that we don't forget he was complicit. If anything his bashing and airing out trumps laundry makes it worse, because he KNEW all that and still worked with him.)
