HUBBLE'S BUBBLE. 🌌🫧

This blue "bubble" surrounding a massive, late-stage star about 30,000 light-years away is called a Wolf-Rayet nebula.

It was created when speedy stellar winds interact with the outer layers of hydrogen that are ejected by Wolf–Rayet stars.

Nebulae,Supernovae & Stars Captured by Hubble Space Telescope.

[scienceacumen]

The bright variable star V 372 Orionis takes centre stage in this image from the Hubble Telescope, which has also captured a smaller companion star in the upper left of this image. Both stars lie in the Orion Nebula, a colossal region of star formation roughly 1450 light years from Earth.

V 372 Orionis is a particular type of variable star known as an Orion Variable. These young stars experience some tempestuous moods and growing pains, which are visible to astronomers as irregular variations in luminosity. Orion Variables are often associated with diffuse nebulae, and V 372 Orionis is no exception; the patchy gas and dust of the Orion Nebula pervade this scene.

[Image description: Two very bright stars with cross-shaped diffraction spikes are prominent: the larger is slightly lower-right of centre, the smaller lies towards the upper-left corner. Small red stars with short diffraction spikes are scattered around them. The background is covered nearly completely by gas: smoky, bright blue gas around the larger star in the centre and lower-right, and wispier red gas elsewhere.]

...Some part of our being knows this is where we came from. We long to return, and we can, because the cosmos is also within us. We're made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.

Aurora Borealis on Saturn captured by the Hubble Space Telescope

[archivedotorgfan]

this view of nearly 10,000 galaxies was the deepest visible-light image of the cosmos, it shows a deep core sample of the universe. the total amount of exposure time was 11.3 days, taken between sept. 24, 2003 and jan. 16, 2004.

From the depths of the ocean to the most distant galaxies, we’re all connected! 💫 💙

Recently, @montereybayaquarium Executive Director Julie Packard and Space Telescope Science Institute Director Dr. Jennifer M. Lotz were honored with 2024 Clarke Foundation awards.

In celebration, the Aquarium has partnered with STScI to bring you images from outer space and Earth’s life-giving ocean. It’s in moments like these that we can pause to appreciate and be in awe of the world we live in. As John Steinbeck and Ed Ricketts wrote in “The Log from the Sea of Cortez”: “It is advisable to look from the tide pool to the stars and then back to the tide pool again.” ✨
