“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome.” Brené Brown

There’s bravery in showing up as we are, without guarantees - just the openness to connect. 🧡

Kindness isn’t about grand gestures - it’s in the quiet moments, the small choices, and the way we show up for each other when it matters most.

Be kind, always. 🧡

A starfield is shown with a large spherical nebula in the center. The nebula shows a great deal of internal structure. Please see the explanation for more detailed information.

🔭 Nacreous Clouds over Sweden

Image Credit & Copyright: Vojan Höfer

apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25020...
Vivid and lustrous, wafting iridescent waves of color wash across this skyscape from northern Sweden. Known as nacreous clouds or mother-of-pearl clouds, they are rare. But their unforgettable appearance was captured in this snapshot on January 12 with the Sun just below the local horizon. A type of polar stratospheric cloud, they form when unusually cold temperatures in the usually cloudless lower stratosphere form ice crystals. Still sunlit at altitudes of around 15 to 25 kilometers, the clouds diffract the sunlight even when the Sun itself is hidden from direct view.

🔭 Hydrogen Clouds of M33

Image Credit & Copyright: Pea Mauro

apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25013...
Gorgeous spiral galaxy Messier 33 seems to have more than its fair share of glowing hydrogen gas. A prominent member of the local group of galaxies, M33 is also known as the Triangulum Galaxy and lies a mere 3 million light-years away. The galaxy's central 60,000 light-years or so are shown in this sharp galaxy portrait. The portrait features M33's reddish ionized hydrogen clouds or HII regions. Sprawling along loose spiral arms that wind toward the core, M33's giant HII regions are some of the largest known stellar nurseries, sites of the formation of short-lived but very massive stars. Intense ultraviolet radiation from the luminous, massive stars ionizes the surrounding hydrogen gas and ultimately produces the characteristic red glow. In this image, broadband data were combined with narrowband data recorded through a filter that transmits the light of the strongest visible hydrogen and oxygen emission lines.

A foreground grass field is shown below a distant field of stars. On the grass field are some trees. Dwarfing the trees, in the sky, is a comet with a long tail. Please see the explanation for more detailed information.

🔭 NGC 7814: Little Sombrero

Image Credit & Copyright: Mike Selby

apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25012...
Point your telescope toward the high flying constellation Pegasus and you can find this cosmic expanse of Milky Way stars and distant galaxies. NGC 7814 is centered in the sharp field of view that would almost be covered by a full moon. NGC 7814 is sometimes called the Little Sombrero for its resemblance to the brighter more famous M104, the Sombrero Galaxy. Both Sombrero and Little Sombrero are spiral galaxies seen edge-on, and both have extensive halos and central bulges cut by a thin disk with thinner dust lanes in silhouette. In fact, NGC 7814 is some 40 million light-years away and an estimated 60,000 light-years across. That actually makes the Little Sombrero about the same physical size as its better known namesake, appearing smaller and fainter only because it is farther away.

A dark sloping hill is seen at the bottom with a bright comet with many tails visible above it, taking up most of the frame. The tails closest to the slope are the most dim. Please see the explanation for more detailed information.
