A scorched plant and its moon orbiting a bloated Red Giant. Both of these worlds orbit the star at twice the distance Neptune orbits from the sun, yet have surface temperatures of more than 1,200 °F.

Pictures of the day - November 26, 2018

A system of 6 planet’s orbiting a rare dim carbon star that has swelled into a red giant. All of the planet’s have been roasted by the star. The star has a very low surface temperature; therefore, all of the planets have a red-tint due to the lack of blue colored light.

The outer-most planets form a double planet system which consist of a Mars-like world orbited by an ocean world. The ocean world once being a frozen ice-covered world melted the by expanded sun.

My first posts will be from systems located within the Triangulum Galaxy. The above 3 images were taken from Space Engine of the galaxy. The background galaxy in the images is Andromeda.

For those of you that are not familiar with the Triangulum Galaxy, it is the third largest member of the local group, sometimes considered a satellite galaxy of Andromeda. The galaxy is also known as M33, NGC 598 or the Pinwheel Galaxy. Approximately 40 billion stars reside within this spiral galaxy. It is believed that the galaxy lacks a central supermassive black hole and central halo.

Staying on Tumblr for now.

I just want to let all my followers know I am staying on Tumblr for now. I appreciate everyone who follows my space engine tumblr and rabbit and shark tumblr.

I am going to however check into pillowfort since i am hearing some good things about it, and might also keep a space engine blog on there as well if I like it.

If the autoflagging gets too bad, however; I might decide to leave tumblr. So that is a wait and see game. But for the foreseeable future I am staying here.
