Explanation: What's different about this galaxy? Very little, which makes the Spanish Dancer galaxy, NGC 1566, one of the most typical and photogenic spirals on the sky. There is something different about this galaxy image, though, because it is a diagonal combination of two images: one by the Hubble Space Telescope on the upper left, and the other by the James Webb Space Telescope on the lower right. The Hubble image was taken in ultraviolet light and highlights the locations of bright blue stars and dark dust along the galaxy's impressive spiral arms. In contrast, the Webb image was taken in infrared light and highlights where the same dust emits more light than it absorbed. In the rollover image, the other two sides of these images are revealed. Blinking between the two images shows which stars are particularly hot because they glow brighter in ultraviolet light, and the difference between seemingly empty space and infrared-glowing dust.

Scientists uncover unique features of 2006 Chiron, a hybrid celestial body

- By Nuadox Crew -

Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery about 2006 Chiron, a unique "centaur" object that blurs the line between asteroids and comets.

Centaurs, found between Jupiter and Neptune, are remnants of the early solar system, but Chiron stands out with its comet-like activity, rings, and possible debris field. Researchers at the University of Central Florida (UCF) used the James Webb Space Telescope to study its composition, uncovering carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide ice alongside methane gas in its coma—features not typically found together on such distant objects. This sets Chiron apart from other centaurs, asteroids, and comets.

The findings, published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, shed light on how solar heating drives transformations in centaurs, offering insights into the early solar system's formation. Scientists aim to study Chiron further as it approaches Earth, though centaurs have a limited lifespan before falling into planets or becoming comets.

The research highlights the mysterious and varied behavior of centaurs, suggesting there's more to learn about these enigmatic celestial bodies.

Introduction Post (pinned) I figured I might make a brief little introduction post about me and what you'll expect to see on my blog... even though it's kind of in my blog intro itself. To be fair, that needs updating, I think, but I'm just too lazy to do it. So here you go: *You can call me Undine! (she/her)

Some sideblogs: @yesteryear-archive: Blog dedicated to things from the 1900s-1970s @staccatothejazzman: Blog dedicated to the TV series Johnny Staccato and filmmaker/actor John Cassavetes

I like a bunch of stuff, but mainly I'm really into things from days gone by such as the oldies but goodies. We're talking:

Music. My listening scope is the 20s-60s; but with a main focus on the '50s-'60s. I even have a big ol' Spotify playlist compiled of my favorite oldies if you're interested in listening to that! There's even earlier music in there too. If you want to check out what kinds of artists I mainly listen to, I have a last.fm profile. It'll give you a better idea! But some of my favorites at the moment are Jim Reeves, Perry Como, Dean Martin, Sanford Clark, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Ricky Nelson, Lola Albright, Hank Williams, Webb Pierce, Faron Young, Starset, Vitas.... Obviously this list is not exhaustive and you can go to my Lastfm and pretty much my tastes are there! I mainly like rock n' roll and classic country but again, Lastfm will tell you!

Movies. I'll admit I don't really have the attention span for much movies but on the occasion that I do, the Golden Age of film is probably my go-to. I have a lot of stuff on my watchlist... procrastination is a big thing with me.

TV series, too. I like the older TV series but I'm into modern stuff as well (I promise I'm not just a boomer, the modern stuff applies to everything else too! /j). I really like the noir and detective noir genres. Some examples of TV series I like include Dragnet, Peter Gunn, Johnny Staccato, Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, the Addams Family, BBC's Merlin (still need to finish), Doctor Who (although unfortunately I've not been able to catch up in a long time so no spoilers please!)

Old-time radio. Dragnet (which originally started as OTR) and Broadway is my Beat are some examples of what I'm into. So going into this, you will probably see me post people or things from the medias above, or others also. Other things I like include:

Pokémon. A bit rusty as I've not played a mainline game nor completed one in a while although wanting to get back into it soon but still like it.

RWBY

History

Worldbuilding and writing!! I even have a new AO3 you can look at HERE!

Playing video games

Photography, one day I hope to learn how to become a great photographer. Besides the above, I'll just browse and reblog things that I think are neat or that I like - variety is to be expected, my blog doesn't really follow a theme. And that is pretty much basically everything that I can think of, off the top of my head! If I think of anything else or get any new interests I will edit this post with the edit date. Welcome to my blog!
