NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF THE SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD 200,000 LIGHT-YEARS AWAY!!! 🌌
An area of space filled with stars. Most of the stars are small, distant dots in a range of orange colors; closer stars shine with a bright glow and hold four thin diffraction spikes around them. These closer stars appear both bluish and reddish. Clouds from a nebula cover the left half of the scene, giving it a blue-greenish cast. More clouds also drift over the black background of space on the right side of the image.

A smooth galaxy, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the COSMOS survey.

It is at redshift 0.44 (lookback time 4.75 billion years) with coordinates (150.65516, 2.47389).

50 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

Two bulbous, bluish clouds of gas against a field of multi-colored stars. Stars shine within the clouds as well as outside. Webb's image of a section of the Flame Nebula, which contains a mixture of reds, blues and browns, and shows red, blue, and white stars.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

This star & spiral galaxy may appear to be neighbours, but they're actually separated by 45 million light-years.

The image of the pair combines data from two instruments on the NASA/ESA #Hubble Space Telescope, taken more than 20 years apart.

A spiral galaxy seen face-on. Broken spiral arms made of blue patches of stars and thin strands of dark dust swirl around the galaxy’s centre, forming a broad, circular disc. An extended circular halo surrounds the disc. The centre is a brightly-glowing, stubby bar-shaped area in a pale yellow colour. A bright star in our own galaxy, with long cross-shaped diffraction spikes, is visible atop the distant galaxy.

GALEX Andromeda Mosaic - From Judy Schmidt (geckzilla.bsky.social) - https://flic.kr/p/FPGi9u
I have recently turned my attention to some archival GALEX data and found it quite promising. What surprised me the most was the presence of galactic cirrus in the FUV (far ultraviolet) channel. Because I am unfamiliar with the "personality" of the telescope I almost mistook it for some kind of odd artifacting. As far as I know, this cirrus has never been presented in a GALEX image before, so I am happy to have found it there. If you are having a hard time seeing it, a brighter version is available here (6.7MB JPG). Processing notes: Of greatest concern is the FUV-bright star (Nu Andromedae) in the lower left. There was no FUV data available; all came from a single, low duration NUV (near ultraviolet) exposure. The brightness of the star was interpolated based on nearby contextual clues from frames which did contain FUV information. It is definitely the brightest FUV source in the frame, and I think it was fair to "fake" it like this. From what I am able to gather, observations of bright FUV sources were avoided due to long-term issues with the detectors, so that is probably why there were never any exposures of this particular star. Several areas are monochrome like this, mostly in the lower left corner and another near the southern tip of the galaxy. These filler data are very coarse and do not look good up close, but they had to suffice. Many little annuli were removed, including a giant line of them emanating from Nu Andromedae. I tried to match ...

NEW HUBBLE IMAGE SHOWING TWO GALAXIES INTERACTING 🤩
An elliptical galaxy (upper left) and a spiral galaxy (lower right) are connected by a stream of drawn-out gas. Two significant bright blue blobs of star formation are visible on the outskirts of the spiral galaxy, and another extends away from the center of the elliptical. A long tail is visible extending from the spiral galaxy.
