#Repost via @krl_photo ・・・ Comet C/2020 F3 NEOWISE captured early this morning. ——————— “Not granite nor stone, she’s fire made from ice. A galactic tasteful treasure, the chilliest flavor of spice. Flaunting a tale told only by a fairy. Enchantment in the sky, a reality of the contrary. She sheds her layers that burn from within. It’ll be 68 lifetimes, til we see her magic again”. -KRL- 🔥💫🧊 ——————— A little over a week until our next photography workshop in Utah! We will be shooting the night sky and quite possibly this comet if she’s still around!

Explanation: Pulsating RS Puppis, the brightest star in the image center, is some ten times more massive than our Sun and on average 15,000 times more luminous. In fact, RS Pup is a Cepheid variable star, a class of stars whose brightness is used to estimate distances to nearby galaxies as one of the first steps in establishing the cosmic distance scale. As RS Pup pulsates over a period of about 40 days, its regular changes in brightness are also seen along its surrounding nebula delayed in time, effectively a light echo. Using measurements of the time delay and angular size of the nebula, the known speed of light allows astronomers to geometrically determine the distance to RS Pup to be 6,500 light-years, with a remarkably small error of plus or minus 90 light-years. An impressive achievement for stellar astronomy, the echo-measured distance also more accurately establishes the true brightness of RS Pup, and by extension other Cepheid stars, improving the knowledge of distances to galaxies beyond the Milky Way.

Moonbow over Hawaii One of my favourite astrophotographers snapped a fortuitous moonbow shimmering over a west facing beach on Molokai last June. Like rainbows, the optical effect is due to internal reflection of moonlight by water droplets. Luna, near full, was rising behind the photographer.

From Astronomy Picture of the Day; July 2, 2018:

From the Galactic Plane through Antares Rogelio Bernal Andreo (Deep Sky Colors)

Behold one of the most photogenic regions of the night sky, captured impressively. Featured, the band of our Milky Way Galaxy runs diagonally along the far left, while the colorful Rho Ophiuchus region including the bright orange star Antares is visible just right of center, and the nebula Sharpless 1 (Sh2-1) appears on the far right. Visible in front of the Milk Way band are several famous nebulas including the Eagle Nebula (M16), the Trifid Nebula (M20), and the Lagoon Nebula (M8). Other notable nebulas include the Pipe and Blue Horsehead. In general, red emanates from nebulas glowing in the light of exited hydrogen gas, while blue marks interstellar dust preferentially reflecting the light of bright young stars. Thick dust appears otherwise dark brown. Large balls of stars visible include the globular clusters M4, M9, M19, M28, and M80, each marked on the annotated companion image. This extremely wide field -- about 50 degrees across -- spans the constellations of Sagittarius is on the lower left, Serpens on the upper left, Ophiuchus across the middle, and Scorpius on the right. It took over 100 hours of sky imaging, combined with meticulous planning and digital processing, to create this image.

YOSEMITE'DEN ALTI GEZEGEN Çıplak gözle görülebilen beş gezegen, Merkür, Venüs, Mars, Jüpiter ve Satürn, kadim zamanlardan beri gökyüzünde dolaşırken izleniyorlar. Bu yüzden bu gece, temiz, sakin bir gölün kenarında dururken altı gezegeni de çıplak gözle görmek dikkate şayan olsa gerek. Bir göz atın. Çok parlak ve gözlemcilerin bulması kolay olan sarımsı Mars, soluk Samanyolu’nun solunda duruyor. Satürn, Samanyolu’nun dağınık yıldız ışığının parıltısına gömülmüş. Jüpiter sağda ufka çok yakın, ağaçların ötesinde uzak şehir ışıklarına karşı ışıldıyor. Geçtiğimiz hafta sonu, düşünceli bir gözlemci Yosemite Milli Parkı’ndaki Tanaya Gölü üzerinde bu güzel gece görüntüsünün tadını çıkarırken muhtemelen üç gezegeni daha görebilmiş olmalı.

The great gig in the sky. 2017 Solar Eclipse

Phillips Lake, Oregon - 8/21/2017

Note: This image was not staged. What you see is literally what happened and how this girl unexpectedly chose to live the moment of totality during the 2017 solar eclipse. It's a 2 panes mosaic. Keep reading for more on the story and the shot.

Abell 370: Galaxy Cluster Gravitational Lens Image Credit: NASA, ESA, Hubble; Processing & Copyright: Rogelio Bernal Andreo (DeepSkyColors.com)

Explanation: What are those strange arcs? While imaging the cluster of galaxies Abell 370, astronomers noticed an unusual arc. The arc wasn't understood right away -- not until better images showed that the arc was a previously unseen type of astrophysical artifact of a gravitational lens, where the lens was the center of an entire cluster of galaxies. Today, we know that this arc, the brightest arc in the cluster, actually consists of two distorted images of a fairly normal galaxy that happens to lie far in the distance. Abell 370's gravity caused the background galaxies' light -- and others -- to spread out and come to the observer along multiple paths, not unlike a distant light appears through the stem of a wine glass. Almost all of the yellow images featured here are galaxies in the Abell 370 cluster. An astute eye can pick up many strange arcs and distorted arclets, however, that are actually gravitationally lensed images of distant normal galaxies. Studying Abell 370 and its images gives astronomers a unique window into the distribution of normal and dark matter in galaxy clusters and the universe.

KOÇ’TAKİ YILDIZ TOZU⠀ ⠀ Yıldız tozunda bu kompozisyon, kuzey gökyüzünde 8 dereceyi kaplıyor. Mozaiklenmiş görüş alanı, zodyak takımyıldızı Koç’a (Aries) ve Samanyolu Galaksimizin düzlemine doğru, tanıdık Ülker (Pleiades) yıldız kümesinin batısında. Derin gök manzarasının sağında mavimsi Epsilon Arietis, yaklaşık 330 ışık yılı mesafede bulunan ve çıplak gözle görülebilen bir yıldız yer alıyor. Bölgedeki yıldız ışığını yansıtan tozlu nebulalar LBN762, LBN753 ve LBN743 görüntü boyunca soldan sağa doğru yayılıyor, ama yaklaşık 1,000 ışık yılı uzaktalar. Kozmik tuval bu tahmini mesafede 140 ışık yılından daha fazla genişliğe sahip. Büyük bir moleküler bulutun kenarına yakın, karanlık iç bölgeleri, yeni oluşmuş yıldızları ve genç yıldızımsı cisimleri veya ön yıldızları gözetleyen optik teleskoplardan saklayabilir. Kendi kütle çekimleri nedeniyle çöken ön yıldızlar, moleküler bulutun içerisinde gömülü yoğun çekirdekler etrafında oluşuyor.⠀ ⠀ Görsel & Telif: Rogelio Bernal Andreo @DeepSkyColors⠀ http://www.deepskycolors.com/⠀ ⠀ #apod #nasa #sky #space #astronomy #science #repost #gökyüzü #astronomi #uzay #bilim #uzaydanhaberler

Rogelio Bernal Andreo at Silver Lake — REPOST: @deepskycolors from http://ift.tt/1WIhwba chosen by @tracyleephotos --- #milkywaychasers to be featured or post on http://ift.tt/1WIhwba. Tag a friend who might enjoy this Milky Way image and journey! --- From Rogelio about this image: --- PANO/STACKED fb.com/DeepSkyColors http://ift.tt/2oXEgGa "Perseids by the lake" Silver Lake, California This year I decided to drive 3 hours to Silver Lake in the Northern California sierra to capture some of the famous Perseid meteor shower. I also decided to stay away from the radiant (the point from where all meteors seem to originate) and just focus on the composition of a nice nightscape and hoping some fireballs would make it in the frame. Knowing that the meteors would blaze in a direction similar to that of the Milky Way, my target was a no brainer, and the scenery was just perfect for that. What you see is the brightest shooting stars (meteors) I captured over a period of 2 hours. I have not integrated the fainter ones. This is not a single image but a composite of a few, with the meteors aligned right where they happened, relative to the sky. You'll notice all the bright meteors have a distinctive green-yellow-reddish color, which isn't rare. The colors are caused by light emitted by different metals when they burn as they enter out atmosphere and ultimately, by the air as well (red). Hope you like it! Shares appreciated!
