Guau!! Admirable, es impresionante lo que existe en nuestro Universo y lo que es pasmoso son las cifras de las distancias a las que nos enfrentamos en él.

 It Is One Of The More Massive Galaxies Known. A Mere 46 Million Light-years Distant, Spiral Galaxy

 It is one of the more massive galaxies known. A mere 46 million light-years distant, spiral galaxy NGC 2841 can be found in the northern constellation of Ursa Major. This sharp view of the gorgeous island universe shows off a striking yellow nucleus and galactic disk. Dust lanes, small, pink star-forming regions, and young blue star clusters are embedded in the patchy, tightly wound spiral arms. In contrast, many other spirals exhibit grand, sweeping arms with large star-forming regions. NGC 2841 has a diameter of over 150,000 light-years, even larger than our own Milky Way and captured by this composite image merging exposures from the orbiting 2.4-meter Hubble Space Telescope and the ground-based 8.2-meter Subaru Telescope. X-ray images suggest that resulting winds and stellar explosions create plumes of hot gas extending into a halo around NGC 2841.

How Could A Galaxy Become Shaped Like A Ring? The Rim Of The Blue Galaxy Pictured On The Right Is An

How could a galaxy become shaped like a ring? The rim of the blue galaxy pictured on the right is an immense ring-like structure 150,000 light years in diameter composed of newly formed, extremely bright, massive stars. That galaxy, AM 0644-741, is known as a ring galaxy and was caused by an immense galaxy collision. When galaxies collide, they pass through each other – their individual stars rarely come into contact. The ring-like shape is the result of the gravitational disruption caused by an entire small intruder galaxy passing through a large one. When this happens, interstellar gas and dust become condensed, causing a wave of star formation to move out from the impact point like a ripple across the surface of a pond. The intruder galaxy is just outside of the frame taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. This featured image was taken to commemorate the anniversary of Hubble’s launch in 1990. Ring galaxy AM 0644-741 lies about 300 million light years away.

Polish Literature: The Inquietude By Grażyna Chrostowska (1921 - 1942) The Day Is Like The Inquietude

Polish Literature: The Inquietude by Grażyna Chrostowska (1921 - 1942) The day is like the inquietude of Chopin’s music, The birds, scared away from their nests are circling Low above the earth, They are listening, afraid…

Quietness in the nature, warmth is like before a storm. From the West, low, dark clouds flow. Waylaid fear strikes into the heart. Homesickness, homesickness…

I want to walk on soggy roads, Listen to the sound of wind, Hunt the breath of spring time, Feel the deepest feeling, Find quietness in love.

I am walking, unable to find, keep changing and returning. Somewhere far a way, village hamlets are left behind.

Clouds flew to the East, And on the east side, Lonely, leaning, dark trees endure, In the wind, and in the quietness, They are swung by the inquietude.

■ Grażyna Chrostowska was born on 21 October, 1921 in Lublin, Poland. She was a member of the underground KOP (Komenda Obrońców Polski) organization during the Nazi Germany occupation of Poland. She was arrested by Gestapo in Lublin on 8 May, 1941. Together with her sister she was sent to the Ravensbrück Concentration Camp on 23 September, 1941. On 18 April, 1942, Grażyna Chrostowska (aged 21) and her sister were executed by firing squad in the camp. 8 hours before her death, she wrote the poem titled “The Inquietude” (Niepokój).

When Does The Sun Look Like A Flower? In A Specific Color Of Red Light Emitted By Hydrogen, As Featured

When does the Sun look like a flower? In a specific color of red light emitted by hydrogen, as featured here, some regions of the solar chromosphere may resemble a rose. The color-inverted image was taken in 2014 October and shows active solar region 2177. The petals dominating the frame are actually magnetically confined tubes of hot plasma called fibrils, some of which extend longer the diameter of the Earth. In the central region many of these fibrils are seen end-on, while the surrounding regions are typically populated with curved fibrils. When seen over the Sun’s edge, these huge plasma tubes are called spicules, and when they occur in passive regions they are termed mottles. Sunspot region 2177 survived for several more days before the complex and tumultuous magnetic field poking through the Sun’s surface evolved yet again.
