Hoag's object, a near perfect ring galaxy. On the outside are bright blue stars, whilst the middle contains likely older redder stars. At about 7 o'clock in the dark space in between, is another more distance ring galaxy! Image credit: #NASA, #ESA,#Hubble 🔭 #Astronomy #Space

Go read a book.

In preparation for the March 14 total lunar eclipse, I imaged the Moon last night with a monochrome ZWO ASI2600MM camera and RGB filters. I have always used a color camera (or color film) for total lunar eclipses. Monochrome is trickier to process, but brings out more detail. #astrophotography

this is a galaxy cluster whose light took 10 BILLION years to reach us. unreal.

Imagine watching disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow or 2012 and thinking that the apocalyptic weather scenes were the “unrealistic” part. Turns out those scenes were almost bang on. The unrealistic part was the humans working together to overcome the problem & save the world. Sigh.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by #Religion. So now people assume that religion and #Morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." ~ Arthur C. Clarke
