You can’t give people what they want, because then they will think they have power.

Hubble captures the spiral galaxy NGC 2841, 46 million light-years away in Ursa Major. Its bright core, dust lanes, and blue stars stand out, but fewer emission nebulae suggest lower star formation. Fiery young stars likely cleared the remaining gas.

I think I'm adding too much extra stuff to this #AcrylicPainting based on a pic I took a couple years ago , but I am having fun, listening to Baroque music as I paint.

I'll keep working on it, adding/removing stuff, and will eventually pull myself away. 🙂

A colour photograph of a dark street. There are cars to the left and terraced houses to the right which are in shadows. There is a bright orange glow of the street lamps at the end of the street which highlights the pavement. It was a misty damp night.

From member Imran Bader: Deeper in the core of the Rosette nebula, we see several Bok structures. Bok Globules are pockets of dark cosmic dust and gas, usually containing newborn protostars on their way to becoming fully fledged main-sequence stars. 🔭

A close up and detailed image of the Rosette Nebula, shown in blue and surrounded by orange dust. The center of the rosette is black and full of stars, while the blue nebula has numerous dark structures peeking out of it.
