NASA Inspires Your Crafty Creations for World Embroidery Day
It’s amazing what you can do with a little needle and thread! For #WorldEmbroideryDay, we asked what NASA imagery inspired you. You responded with a variety of embroidered creations, highlighting our...nasa (Tumblr)
This streak on a Hubble photo, originally thought to be an imaging glitch, is actually a 200,000 light year trail of new stars formed by the wake of a black hole that was ejected from the galaxy at the top right.
For reference, that streak is about twice the diameter of the Milky Way!

Da hat jemand eine "Compare-Seite" der gestern veröffentlichten #JWST Bilder und die entsprechenden Vergleichsbilder von #Hubble zusammen gebaut - cool !
In this sturning image provided by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), the Omega Nebula (M17) resembles the fury of a raging sea, showing a bubbly ocean of glowing hydrogen gas and small amounts of other elements such as oxygen and sulfur. The nebula, also known as the Swan Nebula, is a hotbed of newly born stars residing 5,500 light-years away in the constellation Sagittarius. The wavelike patterns of gas have been sculpted and illuminated by a torrent of ultraviolet radiation from the young massive stars, which lie outside the picture to the upper left. The ultraviolet radiation is carving and heating the surfaces of cold hydrogen gas clouds. The warmed surfaces glow orange and red in this photograph. The green represents an even hotter gas that masks background structures. Various gases represented with color are: sulfur, represented in red; hydrogen, green; and oxygen blue.#space #hubble #nebula #cosmos #science
