Picture of the day: This wild-looking supernova remnant is nicknamed the Jellyfish Nebula. Supernovas produce some of the strangest objects in the night sky.

Another week, another round of Nebula finalists. This set is from the 1982 Nebula Awards.

I think should offer to do a tiny profit split with , if they implement support for Nebula.

Most creators I follow post on YT, so I most only opened NP. I want to support people breaking away from the evil giants monopoly, but it was just so seldom that there was anything new for me in the Nebula app that I mostly didn't open it. So I didn't renew my subscription. If I'd been able to get all videos in one place, I'd renew. And NP devs need money too.

Had the chance to capture this galaxy, M51, from my obsevatory in Mexico City this very week! Zoomed in beforehand to show you the details of this magnificent pair of interacting galaxies.

IC 1795: The Fishhead Nebula

To some, this nebula looks like the head of a fish. However, this colorful cosmic portrait really features glowing gas and obscuring dust clouds in IC 1795, a star forming region in the northern constellation Cassiopeia. The nebula's colors were created by adopting the Hubble color palette.

Great new video from "political influencer" 😉
@notjustbikes
Many many valid points.
Is there any other way we could save lives, help the environment, reduce injuries, improve mental health, reduce pollution, make transport cheaper, and more, for such a small amount of money and effort?

GK Per: Nova and Planetary Nebula

The star system GK Per is known to be associated with only two of the three nebulas pictured. At 1500 light years distant, Nova Persei 1901 (GK Persei) was the second closest nova yet recorded. At the very center is a white dwarf star, the surviving core of a former Sun-like star.

Rings Around the Ring Nebula

The Ring Nebula (M57) is more complicated than it appears through a small telescope. The easily visible central ring is about one light-year across, but this remarkably deep exposure - a collaborative effort combining data from three different large telescopes - explores the looping filaments of glowing gas extending much farther from the nebula's central star.

Dragon's Egg Bipolar Emission Nebula

How did a star form this beautiful nebula? In the middle of emission nebula NGC 6164 is an unusually massive star. The central star has been compared to an oyster's pearl and an egg protected by the mythical sky dragons of Ara.

Dragon's Egg

This image, taken with the VLT Survey Telescope hosted at ESO’s Paranal Observatory, shows the beautiful nebula NGC 6164/6165, also known as the Dragon’s Egg. The nebula is a cloud of gas and dust surrounding a pair of stars called HD 148937.

Abell 31/SH2-290 is a very large, but faint planetary nebula in the constellation Cancer. I knew I was in for a challenge when I took my first 10 minute sub of this object and could barely make it out. I gathered 30 hours of exposure time, but it could use a great deal more to help control the noise with the extensive stretching needed.

M16’s region close to the galactic center. Famous for featuring the Pillars of Creation, M16, popularly known as the Eagle Nebula, here resembles the face of a bearded man (can you make it out?).
Took this picture from my rooftop in Mexico City.

After upgrading my desktop's RAM, I was able to process the data we collected on Lower's Nebula. Given the nebula's dim surface and NYC's abysmal light pollution, the resulting image required nearly twenty-six hours of integration time!

Imaging by @alex NYC-Bortle 9 / 311 x 300s subs / Poseidon-C Pro / Z61 (f5.9, 360 mm) / AM5 ZWO asi120mm mini / Anti-Halo PRO Dual-Band Filter
