3/ In a space only 1000 light-years across, there are numerous and complex interactions due to: expanding supernova remnants, hot winds from newly formed stars, unusually strong and colliding magnetic fields, and Sagittarius A*, our Galaxy's supermassive black hole. 🔭 🧪 #cosmology #galactic

2/ and magnetic fields near the Galactic Center. The area depicted is about 1,000 light-years across and 2,000 light-years long. It is in Sagittarius some 26,000 light-years from Earth. This labeled version points out interesting sights to see. 🔭 🧪 #cosmology #galactic
This is the labeled version of the primary image. It points out interesting sights to see.

🎙️Per Vino Ad Astra!🍷 I'm looking for guests for my new podcast on #Astrophotography, #Astronomy, #Cosmology, #Heliophysics, #Space and all things #Science! Join me for a virtual glass of wine and cosmic conversations--everyone’s welcome, no PhD required! #PerVinoAdAstra 🔭 From Wine, to the Stars!
Okay everyone; it's time to start discussing the next Big Thing in the world of Astro sciences:

🌟 🍷 Per Vino Ad Astra 🔭 🚀

That's right.  I'm throwing my telescopes and my audio processing rigs into the podcasting world with a future award-winning interview style conversation between me, someone else, and some BYO wine.  Or beer.  Or a cocktail.  Or some water.  Or whatever.
I don't judge, just bring something to drink.

You and I sit down over a virtual table together, I ask you a few easy questions about astronomy, astrophotography, cosmology, or science in general, then I ask some really hard stuff about Epistemology and Logology, and we share a glass or two.  All while I record it, edit it, add some sound, and publish it somewhere online that makes us look good.

Per Vino ad Astra!  From wine, to the Stars!

Coming Soon!

Happy Birthday card to Gérard de Vaucouleurs, from Vera Rubin. Gérard de Vaucouleurs (1918-1995), born on this day, was a pioneer in the field of extragalactic cosmography (discovery of the Local Supercluster), and many others fields of astronomy, including the study of Mars! #Cosmology 🧪 #Mars
A birthday card offered by Vera Rubin to Gérard de Vaucouleurs, featuring a plot of de Vaucouleurs' number of papers per year as a function of time. Counts of papers are subdivided by disciplines, namely: Cosmology, Galaxies, Milky Way + Stars, Planets, Techniques.

Interesting! A research team studied the spiral galaxy NGC 6946, observing how oxygen and nitrogen are distributed in its H II regions. Using a special instrument (SITELLE spectrometer), the researchers measured the amounts of these elements in 638 regions. 🔭🧪 #cosmology 1/2

Published in #MNRAS: "SIGNALS on the mixing of oxygen and nitrogen in the spiral galaxy NGC 6946", Bresolin et al. This is Fig. 1: for the caption & to read the paper please visit academic.oup.com/mnras/articl... @royalastrosoc.bsky.social

SITELLE view of NGC 6946 obtained from combining the SN2 and SN3 filter images.

Cosmography archives 1999: Is the Universe Fractal? A perspectives paper by @vicentjm.bsky.social for @science.org www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧪 #Cosmology
The distribution of galaxies in two wedges, labelled CfA2 and Las Campanas, espectively. Caption reads: A matter of scale. The galaxy distribution for the southern slices of the Las Campanas redshift survey together with the first slice of the CfA2 catalog at the Northern Hemisphere. Although the depth of the Las Campanas slices is four times (in redshift) the depth of the CfA2 slice, the size of the structures is the same in both samples, contrary to what is expected for an unbounded fractal.

Do you live in Sweden? Are you into #Astronomy or #Astrophotography or #Cosmology or just #SpaceScience in general? You should be following @eggstronomer.bsky.social, the National Outreach Coordinator for the International Astronomical Union (IAU)! Even if you don't live in Sweden, you should!!

🧵 A research team led by Violeta G. Rosas (@unileiden.bsky.social) captured, with high-resolution infrared imaging, the torus of dust surrounding a quasar — a very luminous SMBH that accretes matter from its surroundings. Research Paper➡️ arxiv.org/abs/2112.13694 🔭 🧪 #extragalactic #cosmology
ESO's VLT image features a magnificent face-on view of the barred spiral galaxy Messier 77. The image highlights the galaxy's beauty, showcasing its glittering arms criss-crossed with dust lanes, without masking Messier 77's turbulent nature."
