Hubble spies a cosmic pillar in the Eagle Nebula
In anticipation of the upcoming 35th anniversary of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, ESA/Hubble is continuing the celebrations with a new view of the Eagle Nebula. This vast stellar nursery displays a towering spire of cosmic gas and dust that incorporates new data processing techniques developed since an image of this region was last released two decades ago.
Does this Hubble image of a sculpted pillar of gas and dust look to you like a curling party streamer, a plume of smoke from a blown-out candle, or an unusual balloon? Regardless of what you see when you gaze at this cosmic cloud, this new portrait is a cause for celebration.
As part of ESA/Hubble's 35th anniversary celebrations, a new image series is being shared to revisit stunning Hubble targets that were previously released. New images of NGC 346 and the Sombrero Galaxy have already been published. Now, ESA/Hubble is revisiting the Eagle Nebula (originally published in 2005 as part of Hubble's 15th anniversary celebrations) with new image processing techniques.
Unfurling along the length of the image is a pillar of cold gas and dust that is 9.5 light-years tall. As enormous as this dusty pillar is, it's just one small piece of the greater Eagle Nebula, which is also called Messier 16. The name Messier 16 comes from the French astronomer Charles Messier, a comet hunter who compiled a catalogue of deep-sky objects that could be mistaken for comets.
The name Eagle Nebula was inspired by the nebula's appearance. The edge of this shining nebula is shaped by dark clouds like this one, giving it the appearance of an eagle spreading its wings.
Not too far from the region pictured here are the famous Pillars of Creation, which Hubble has photographed multiple times, with images released in 1995 and 2015.
The heart of the nebula, which is located beyond the edge of this image, is home to a cluster of young stars. These stars have excavated an immense cavity in the center of the nebula, shaping otherworldly pillars and globules of dusty gas. This particular feature extends like a pointing finger toward the center of the nebula and the rich young star cluster embedded there.
The Eagle Nebula is one of many nebulae in the Milky Way that are known for their sculpted, dusty clouds. Nebulae take on these fantastic shapes when exposed to powerful radiation and winds from infant stars. Regions with denser gas are more able to withstand the onslaught of radiation and stellar winds from young stars, and these dense areas remain as dusty sculptures like the starry pillar shown here.
IMAGE: Eagle Nebula This towering structure of billowing gas and dark, obscuring dust might only be a small portion of the Eagle Nebula, but it is no less majestic in appearance for it. 9.5 light-years tall and 7000 light-years distant from Earth, this dusty sculpture is refreshed with the use of new processing techniques. The new Hubble image is part of ESA/Hubble’s 35th anniversary celebrations. Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, K. Noll

THE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE CRUSHES ALL -- WHEN TWO GALAXIES COLLIDE.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on a Hubble image of NGC 7714, a spiral galaxy 100 million light-years from Earth.⁣ 🔭+📸: ESA (European Space Agency) & NASA⁣.
MINI-OVERVIEW: "NGC 7714 is a spiral galaxy 100 million light-years from Earth — a relatively close neighbour in cosmic terms.
The galaxy has witnessed some violent and dramatic events in its recent past. Tell-tale signs of this brutality can be seen in NGC 7714's strangely shaped arms, and in the smoky golden haze that stretches out from the galactic centre — caused by an ongoing merger with its smaller galactic companion NGC 7715..."

"GUYS THEY JUST HAD SEX TO APARAT
Update 11/9 - it's terrible - really, that it's a day Dark Souls II, "seek misery" , see in this country they said "get *money*", where that hustler culture plugs in to a man's poop The place I stopped playing on PS3 which was easily the only time I got progress was in the Black Gulch, which is where they said fuck the free open range , let's just live here
Nobody operates key positions of power, and if they did, they would be *blackmailed* and left in position
And here's, inb4, jews on dead 4chan have to let you in on the secret by their Moloch god, yes, that's the source of infiltrating senses of "white power", QED, otherwise we could just be a simple workers' party (it's really actually that straightforward
Instead we have this just to say "I'm here to be a whiteknight, don't be a fascest!!!
Update Anyway, the last exception to the white laziness are kaputt. The ancient Greek value of carrying the pain of pregnancy has been picked apart
Nation state: Yo Quiero Taco Bell
Update With the way I get out and do my own thing just to get back and realize it didn't install to the track and we've all lost You know there can't be God without variance in the father figure in the world - astrology
Update Just checked soyjack and realized, the Mexican drug cartel actually has moral authority to speak with over you in that the rap culture permeates our culture - - it's just on the tip of my tongue! White people being dead in the culture are a cult
Pretty much I had to lead you here with the continued illusion of good in the fate You can't topple entire post-robber-baron super-enterprise ways of life, which at - let them speak. - The multicul
I'm sorry but Dark Souls II *is* the rite of passage of the super elite
They don't admit! Radar
https://gyazo.com/a8a68fa0df7b1adc45337bd573035565
Update "My life (Moloch) is like a videeyo Gayy When "fuck bees" hits bees, it's like letting out gas https://allone-works.com/ngc/index.php/2015/07/
Update!. Having checked Extus, I realized and realized that's in the narrative context of this game
This is about getting acclimated in real life to the soulless working environment
"Will you miss me?" is there of course, because you will be forgotten. Memoryholing

Hubble ve una elegante espiral que esconde un monstruo hambriento
Publicada el 16 de octubre de 2015 NGC 4639 es un hermoso ejemplo de un tipo de galaxia conocida como espiral barrada NGC 4639 es una galaxia espiral barrada ubicada en la constelación de Virgo, a una distancia de aproximadamente 70 millones de años luz de la Tierra. Es una de las aproximadamente 1.500 galaxias que forman el Cúmulo de Virgo, un gran cúmulo de galaxias que se encuentra en la…

I guess if you want to take the hawk tuah route and we're just starting to say that proper You would start at the beginning of the June 2015 route https://allone-works.com/ngc/index.php/2015/06/ which happens to coincide directly with the chapter we're starting with, otherwise it's jumbled I would consider Entropy Part 1 the first part of this story in that sense
Update
Having sex sound
(someone uploaded an mp3 of We As Human - We Fall Apart that won't upload
*Thinks about it
https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q= trailer+trash+music Now making the inevitable low quality effective by deliberately looking up shit tier
I don't know who Johny Cash is, but genocide of white men is default
Update The amount of care for muggles who are not d - corc=- corporate - it's *really hard* Pretty much how "trans rights" spelling was rendered "TRANSATS
There are entire factions that have dedicated themselves to strumming gee tars and saying don't call me trailerparktrash - this means that when jews loaded their horses with shit to rationalize of their identity, they were retarded
Update Being in heaven as opposed to on earth? Apparently when you do that the patriarchy says God will have wars in heaven that pale earth in comparison, so being a higher-dimensional entity just for the sake of being overpowered by BBC association anyway
Sorry but the afterlife on earth is just the mortal soul in which the flesh envelop
flippity what

Colliding galaxies
Located in the constellation of Hercules, about 230 million light-years away, NGC 6052 is a pair of colliding galaxies. They were first discovered in 1784 by William Herschel and were originally classified as a single irregular galaxy because of their odd shape. However, we now know that NGC 6052 actually consists of two galaxies that are in the process of colliding. This particular image of NGC 6052 was taken using the Wide Field Camera 3 on the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.
A long time ago gravity drew the two galaxies together into the chaotic state we now observe. Stars from within both of the original galaxies now follow new trajectories caused by the new gravitational effects. However, actual collisions between stars themselves are very rare as stars are very small relative to the distances between them (most of a galaxy is empty space). Eventually things will settle down and one day the two galaxies will have fully merged to form a single, stable galaxy.
Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, will undergo a similar collision in the future with our nearest galactic neighbour, the Andromeda Galaxy. Although this is not expected to happen for around 4 billion years so there is nothing to worry about just yet.
This object was previously observed by Hubble with its old WFPC2 camera. That image was released in 2015.

Cygnus Mosaic 2010 - 2020 Image Credit & Copyright: J-P Metsavainio (Astro Anarchy)
Explanation: In brush strokes of interstellar dust and glowing gas, this beautiful skyscape is painted across the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy near the northern end of the Great Rift and the constellation Cygnus the Swan. Composed over a decade with 400 hours of image data, the broad mosaic spans an impressive 28x18 degrees across the sky. Alpha star of Cygnus, bright, hot, supergiant Deneb lies at the left. Crowded with stars and luminous gas clouds Cygnus is also home to the dark, obscuring Northern Coal Sack Nebula and the star forming emission regions NGC 7000, the North America Nebula and IC 5070, the Pelican Nebula, just left and a little below Deneb. Many other nebulae and star clusters are identifiable throughout the cosmic scene. Of course, Deneb itself is also known to northern hemisphere skygazers for its place in two asterisms, marking a vertex of the Summer Triangle, the top of the Northern Cross.

Hubble Hooks a Supernova Host Galaxy
This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope features the spectacular galaxy NGC 2442, nicknamed the Meathook galaxy owing to its extremely asymmetrical and irregular shape.
This galaxy was host to a supernova explosion spotted in March 2015, known as SN 2015F, that was created by a white dwarf star. The white dwarf was part of a binary star system and siphoned mass from its companion, eventually becoming too greedy and taking on more than it could handle. This unbalanced the star and triggered runaway nuclear fusion that eventually led to an intensely violent supernova explosion. The supernova shone brightly for quite some time and was easily visible from Earth through even a small telescope until months later.

youtube
Thaisa Storchi Bergmann was born in 1955 in Caxias, Brazil. Bergmann is an astrophysicist and an expert on black holes. In 1993, she became known internationally within her field when she published a paper with indirect evidence that a supermassive black hole existed at the center of galaxy NGC 1097. Bergmann’s research has paved the way for an understanding of how black holes form at the centers of galaxies. In 2015, she won the L’Oreal-UNESCO Award for Women in Science.

The BSB Southern Dinner Party was originally conceived during the peak NGC cooking era (circa 2013-15) and another attempt to have Kinfolk inspired gathering. With a menu including NGC Fried Chicken burgers, Mac & Cheese, (Costco) Coleslaw and homemade Pecan and Apple Pie - it was a chance for us to gather together over some ‘cocktails’, celebrate @areeyeseeoh and @borgasmatron plus break out to another classic drunken dance session. It’s funny looking back now as there was a period where I didn’t want to host anything anymore… yet now I find myself hanging to organise another BSB gathering // 2015 . . . #backseatballads #niceguychicken #bsbdinnerparty #ngc (at St Albans, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/CS3_HZ_FZt0/?utm_medium=tumblr
