Antares, α Scorpii // Aarni Vuori

Note the much more distant globular cluster, NGC 6144, towards the upper left!

The name "Antares" comes from the Ancient Greek, Ἀντάρης, meaning "rival to Ares", due to the similarity of its red color to the planet Mars.

Congratulations to TOS Kirk/Spock shippers, thee original slash fandom that is only getting stronger with time. Let's get this bread in 2024.

Edit: It's annoying the shit out of me that this is circulating with an interpretation I don't think is supported by data (see this), and then I remembered it's my blog and I can be petty if I want to. No more reblogs.
