This attraction is another stunning nebula but with an added twist. We as humans have known about this nebula for a while, ever since it was first seen but Chinese astronomers in 1054 CE and mistaken for a star. This may seem far out, but maybe not, as the Crab Nebula has a pulsar within it. It resides 6300 light years away and is only 10 light years across. It also holds the identification of M1, the first Messier Number. Come see this truly amazing sight.
Join us on a trip through the cosmos to see the best the universe has to offer. Experience the most stunning, and beautiful objects. From black holes to nebulae, will see it all. We’ll see

This planetary nebula is a must see, as it will only be around for another 10 000 years. Being the first ever nebula to be observed with a spectroscope, it also holds historical appeal. Discovered when British Astronomer Sir Frederick William Herschel pointed his telescope towards the constellation Draco, in 1786, a mere 829 years ago. This 0.2 light year span is home to plenty of developing stars, some of which may go on to form the stars of the future. A mere 3300 light years away from earth, this nebula it our first
The Ursa Major is one big constellation made out of smaller asterisms most notably The Big Dipper. The Ursa Major was named after its iconic “Great Bear” shape and usually is visible on freezing winter nights in the northern hemisphere. Ursa Major was mentioned in the bible plenty of times but was not discovered until Ancient Greeks linked it back to the myth of Callisto. The myth states that Callisto swore his loyalty to the goddess Artemis. Zeus spotted Callisto one day and immediately fell in love.
She became interested in the sky and the stars at an early age. William Mitchell, an amateur astronomer himself, opened the doors and introduced Maria to the endless realms of astronomy available to explore. He taught her to use the sextant and the reflecting telescope, to enable her to discover and venture for information by watching the stars. It was Maria’s early start in the field of astronomy that prepared her for the biggest discovery of her life. She and her father would go up to the roof every night.
The Fort Ancients have left a star studded mystory for us to solve, unsure if it’s a comet tribute, was casued by an impact, or was just made to track the stars. Only more time and searching will tell. I can say one thing for sure in this mess of theories, I’m adding this site to my list of places to visit this summer. It’s so close to home and has so much wonder. I would love to get to see it up close and
At the Lowell observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona, on February 18, 1929 an Astronomer named Clyde Tombaugh couldn’t believe what he was seeing through an eyepiece on a machine called a blink comparator Tombaugh examined to photos of the gemini constellation each showed the same glimmering stars but the pictures were not identical the second photograph was taken a week after the first and during that time something had changed the astronomer saw that a tiny beacon of light a mere pinprick was in a different place in the second photograph than it had ben in the first
The stars appear to be developing with the babies. SCP-scip-51 nebula is concentrating all to one spot with a lack of a fully formed star. 11/6/2001 Baby instances have grown to juvenile, with almost all of the nebula transformed into stars. SCP-scip-51 nebula is still gathering head into one spot
We, humans, have always been interested in the cosmic realm where we reside. Our questions are as countless as the stars across the night sky. Among these questions, one caught the interest of various great minds. Even if aliens exist, how come we cannot interact with them? This question originated from an erstwhile uncertainty.
If you have a good dark-sky sight, it can be spotted through binoculars; those with large telescopes can spot the dust lane. The Sombrero is a spring and early summer observing object half-way between the constellations Virgo and Corvus. ● NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and Spitzer Space Telescope have been used to study the Sombrero in visible and infrared light. The starbirth regions stand out in infrared wavelengths are are mostly located along the outer rim of the dust ring surrounding the galaxy’s
To conclude, the United States should spend the money needed to explore the outer space because it can inspire other people in the future, accelerate technology development, and create efficiency here on earth. Alun Salt, an Archaeoastronomer at the University of Leicester says, “Historical materials suggest that there was of such sharp division between earth and sky in the ancient world. Instead there was one cosmos. Space exploration reveals that while there is not a divine link between the heavens and the earth, it is true that what happens up there can affect what happens down here. It would be useful to know about the cosmos, rather than just be a victim of it.”
The biblical allusion also aligns with the contrasting science and religion theme. The main character is studying the star, Phoenix Nebula. In mythology, a phoenix is a bird that rises from its fiery ashes. The Phoenix
Astronomers Using ESO's Telescope have found the biggest and hottest double star that have parts actually overlapping each other. These two stars in the system VFTS 352 might be pummeling to its demise soon, because the two stars could merge and create a colossal star, or form a double black hole. These two stars are about 160,000 light-years from Earth. These stars are so close that the surface of each star are overlapping each other. This double star has a total mass of about fifty-seven times bigger than the Sun, but it also has the hottest surface temperatures rising above 40,000 degrees Celsius.
Using Hubble, scientists are also able to view the faint light (auroras) that show at the poles of Ganymede. These are a result
However, British astronomers decided to name the new planet Uranus, due to its rich roots of Greek deity. Herschel's findings were by the way of the telescope which enabled him to observe the constellations and

On his stroll he ran into the "Animabilis Stello Astronomy" club. As Leche walked by his ears perked up as heard the words: Milky Way. Leche looked up into the sky where his neighbor, Sus a Red River Hog was pointing. Leche than saw the most beautiful sight.
