This is the Waxing Gibbous Moon! 🌔🌔🌔

Yesterday, October 16th, was International Observe the Moon Night, which meant that Slooh’s telescopes were pointed at the beautiful Moon! Check out more resources to celebrate this exciting day here: https://www.space.com/international-observe-the-moon-night-2021 🤩🤩🤩

This is Comet PanSTARRS! 🌠🌠🌠

This gif was created throughout the night of July 25th and you can see the potentially interstellar comet in motion.

Moon (Feb. 13, 2021)

This is the 2021 Pink Supermoon!🌜🌷🌸🌹🌺🌼💐💮

Although this moon is not pink, the name “Pink Moon” is named after the pink phlox flower that appears in the spring during the time of this event. This rare celestial event won’t happen again for another 8 years so be sure to check it out! ✨✨✨

Hello everyone! A few months ago, I released Project DeLight -  an initiative against light pollution in our community.

I just made an instagram for this project so please follow us for updates! ✨✨✨

Colors of the Moon Image Credit & Copyright: Marcella Giulia Pace

Explanation: What color is the Moon? It depends on the night. Outside of the Earth’s atmosphere, the dark Moon, which shines by reflected sunlight, appears a magnificently brown-tinged gray. Viewed from inside the Earth’s atmosphere, though, the moon can appear quite different. The featured image highlights a collection of apparent colors of the full moon documented by one astrophotographer over 10 years from different locations across Italy. A red or yellow colored moon usually indicates a moon seen near the horizon. There, some of the blue light has been scattered away by a long path through the Earth’s atmosphere, sometimes laden with fine dust. A blue-colored moon is more rare and can indicate a moon seen through an atmosphere carrying larger dust particles. What created the purple moon is unclear – it may be a combination of several effects. The last image captures the total lunar eclipse of 2018 July – where the moon, in Earth’s shadow, appeared a faint red – due to light refracted through air around the Earth. Today there is not only another full moon but a total lunar eclipse visible to observers in North and South America – an occurrence that may lead to some unexpected lunar colorings.

This is the Eta Carinae Nebula! ♥✨🔥

The Eta Carinae nebula is one of the largest diffuse nebulae in our night sky, being almost 4 times larger than the Orion Nebula. The picture above only is a small part of the Eta Carinae Nebula - this section is called the Keyhole Nebula and it has a lot of dark gas and its shape has changed drastically due to nearby ionizing radiation! 🔑✨🔑✨🔑✨
