A colorful night scene of the Big Dipper almost directly up in the sky. Far away from any light pollution, the zenith region, is the area directly above you. Collecting 15 minutes of light reveals the colorful landscape of the cosmos.

#Repost @bosplanet • • • • • • This ‘cosmic glitch’ was a supernova explosion in another Galaxy, 13 million light years from Earth — over the course of 1.5 years 😳 #RipExoplanetsNearby This video, showing a supernova explosion in the Centaurus A galaxy, was created by Judy Schmidt using data from the Hubble Space Telescope. The blueish ring that expands outwards following the blast is a light echo produced by light reflecting off cosmic dust and reaching the telescope with a delay relative to the distance from the source. ⁠ ⁠ 📹 NASA/ESA/B.

Posted @withregram • @bosplanet GOTCHA 🎯 #Astronomers find and take a direct image of a baby exo-planet (b) forming just 400 light years away! 👏 #bosplanet The exoplanet 2M0437b is huge, and also far from its star, 2M0437 – 100 astronomical units (Pluto is around 40 AU from the Sun). Usually, exoplanets this distant from their star are too cool to give off infrared radiation, but here's where the age of 2M0437b truly matters. “Because it's just a few million years old, the baby exoplanet is still relatively warm from the intense planetary formation processes, around 1,400 to 1,500 Kelvin (1,127 to 1,227 degrees Celsius, or 2,060 to 2,240 degrees Fahrenheit). This means that it glows faintly in infrared, enough to be seen at a distance of 417 light-years away.” @sciencealert / Michelle Starr We found it using the Sabaru Telescope and @keckobservatory (infrared follow up) Image Credit: 2M0437b as imaged by the Subaru Telescope in infrared. #exoplanet #astronomer #life #wow #science #space #universe https://www.instagram.com/p/CViYXz8LpTl/?utm_medium=tumblr

We come from the stars and to the stars we go. #bosplanet https://www.instagram.com/p/CUHd-OzFQdy/?utm_medium=tumblr

#Repost @bosplanet #ahasave @ahasave —— Our 4.5 billion year old Moon’s been orbiting Earth since the beginning of the Solar System. 100 million after gravity designed the new planet-moon system, Luna finally became tidally locked. It was a match made up in the cosmic arena. 🌗 #LikeABOS The moon keeps the same face pointing towards the Earth because its rate of spin is tidally locked so that it is synchronized with its rate of revolution (the time needed to complete one orbit). In other words, the moon rotates exactly once every time it circles the Earth.

#reposted_from @bosplanet #ahasave @ahasave —— Space fam, hold on to your 1g seats, July is going to be out of this world! 🚀 #LikeABOS We are about to witness a before and after moment in the space age with two epic launches coming in just a few days. 🚀 @virgingalactic will take @richardbranson up to space to test the astronaut experience aboard the VSS Unity spacecraft. Crew: David Mackay / Chief Pilot Michael Masucci / Pilot Sirisha Bandla @sirishabandla / Researcher Experience Colin Bennett / Cabin Procedures Beth Moses @astro_beth / Test Director 🗓 🚀 July 11th On the other hand, @blueorigin is putting @jeffbezos in space aboard the New Shepard with his brother Mark and a very special guest, 82 year old Wally Funk! Wally was among the Mercury 13 women trained to be astronauts in the 1960s. After decades of waiting, she is set to become the oldest person to launch into space. 🗓 🚀 July 20th The time is coming, the space age has begun. Let’s go to space, humans.
