Well I'm pleased with this grab shot during a brief gap in the clouds. Been tracking the Sun for the past hour. Large spots are visible and clear. Result ☺️🔭 #Seestar

Ring galaxies are ridiculously rare. They make up less than 0.1% of all galaxies. And yet, look closely, there’s another ring galaxy in the background. Image: NASA and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) #astronomy

Just a couple of pubs to Cask Marque today then hoping to get some clear sky around lunchtime and grab an image of two of these large sunspots which appeared recently. Lousy weather has been a big problem over the past week. Fingers crossed 🤞🔭

I didn’t get the chance to post earlier but there were great sunspots today. 🔭

Earlier today I captured this view of sunspots including the huge AR 4366 complex using a low-cost achromat refractor coupled to a Herschel wedge and a narrowband filter, and an ASI462MC camera. 🔭 🧪 #Sun #sunspots
A telescopic image of several sunspots on the Sun including a much larger sunspot complex. A narrowband filter in the green part of the visible spectrum (540nm) was used to take the image resulting in the Sun's surface appearing bright green in color. Credit: Kym Thalassoudis

At the very heart of the Orion Nebula we find the Trapezium, a group of four very hot stars. They are the brightest of an extended cluster of several thousand young stars, many of which lie unseen within the opaque gas and dust: www.eso.org/public/image... 🔭 #flashback
A glowing nebula with clouds of pink, purple, and blue gas and dust, illuminated by a cluster of bright stars at its centre. Smaller stars are scattered across the surrounding dark space.

A newborn and the walking dead - astrophysics version! Bright spot with clumpy jets is a newborn protostar (Ve 7-27). Yellow-green blob to its left is a neutron star (CXOU J085201.4-461753). The circle of cosmic life! paper: iopscience.iop.org/articl…. 📸 @eso.org /J. Suherli et al. 🔭
astrophotograph showing a main central bright white source with two dipole jets blasting away from it. As the jets interact with surrounding nebula above and below this object they are illuminating it. A small clumpy blurry yellow-green blob to its left.

One thing that's striking in the new cosmic map is how dark matter closely, but not exactly, traces the distribution of visible matter. The galaxies we see are "surfing" on an ocean of dark matter, it seems. Fabulous detective work here. 🧪🔭 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
This is pretty technical but here goes:  Galaxy overdensity significance map (
Σ/σ),
weighted by the weak lensing sensitivity function g(z), tracing the projected
distribution of luminous matter, with white κ contours marking the total mass.
