🤖 📖 AI fact of the day 🤓 🧠 🔍 Topic: AI automation in space exploration and research "AI in space research is like having an expert assistant that never gets tired. It helps control telescopes to look at far-off stars, manage spacecraft traveling to other planets, and even analyze space pictures to find new things we've never seen before, like distant galaxies or signs of water." #aiinspace #telescopictechnology #interplanetarytravel #unseenuniverse #starrydiscovery #spaceinnovation #astronomicalanalytics #cosmicwatersearch

07-28-2023 Young Stars, Stellar Jets High-speed outflows of molecular gas from a pair of actively forming young stars shine in infrared light, revealing themselves in this NIRcam image from the James Webb Space Telescope. Cataloged as HH (Herbig-Haro) 46/47, the young stars are lodged within a dark nebula that is largely opaque when viewed in visible light. The pair lie at the center of the prominent reddish diffraction spikes in the NIRcam image. Their energetic stellar jets extend for nearly a light-year, burrowing into the dark interstellar material. A tantalizing object to explore with Webb's infrared capabilities, this young star system is relatively nearby, located only some 1,140 light-years distant in the nautical constellation Vela.

A 3D map of our Milky Way galaxy is like a giant cosmic treasure map, revealing its swirling arms, hidden objects, and the history of its billions-year journey. This map arose curiosity about how stars are born, if other worlds exist, and what secrets black holes hold. It helps us understand our galactic neighborhood, guiding future missions and the search for life beyond Earth. Made with data from space telescopes and powerful computers, this map is a window into the universe's endless wonders, always evolving and ready to surprise us next. #milkywayMap #3danimation #3dvisualization #galaxy #milkyway #solarsystem #space #universe #cosmicjourney #lifebeyondEarth #earth #galaxies #jameswebbspacetelescope #spaceexploration #spaceinnovation #spacescience #spaceexploration

interesting 🤔. i have two questions can anyone answer.. 1. is it possible to explore galaxy?? 2. can we see planets and stars in other galaxies?? #spacetechnology #spaceexploration #space #spacescience #galaxies

07-20-2023 M64: The Black Eye Galaxy Close Up This magnificent spiral galaxy is Messier 64, often called the Black Eye Galaxy or the Sleeping Beauty Galaxy for its dark-lidded appearance in telescopic views. The spiral's central region, about 7,400 light-years across, is pictured in this reprocessed image from the Hubble Space Telescope. M64 lies some 17 million light-years distant in the otherwise well-groomed northern constellation Coma Berenices. The enormous dust clouds partially obscuring M64's central region are laced with young, blue star clusters and the reddish glow of hydrogen associated with star forming regions. But imposing clouds of dust are not this galaxy's only peculiar feature. Observations show that M64 is actually composed of two concentric, counter-rotating systems. While all the stars in M64 rotate in the same direction as the interstellar gas in the galaxy's central region, gas in the outer regions, extending to about 40,000 light-years, rotates in the opposite direction. The dusty eye and bizarre rotation are likely the result of a billion year old merger of two different galaxies.

The #Cosmic #Conundrum: Reaching #Proxima #Centauri in 13.33 #Billion #Years Did you know that the closest star to Earth, Proxima Centauri, is a staggering 13.33 billion years away from us if we were to travel at the speed of Sound? That's a mind-boggling 13.33 billion years! To put this into perspective, our planet has been around for approximately 4.54 billion years, so it would take about 3 times longer than the current age of the Earth to reach Proxima Centauri at the speed of sound. Of course, this is purely theoretical, as it's not possible for a spacecraft to travel at the speed of sound through the vast distances of space. But it's fascinating to think about the incredible scale of our universe and the challenges that come with exploring it. #space #ProximaCentauri #cosmos #astronomy #science #scale

This week's #repost... Mike Selby's NASA APOD! 💫 "A merger is happening between NGC 7285 and NGC 7284 (right and left respectively). Each of them were a great challenge to image being 196 million light-years away in Aquarius and at an apparent field of view size of only 2×1’. NGC 7284 is variously listed as a barred spiral or a Lenticular Galaxy while 7285 is classed as a spiral galaxy. There is also a massive tidal stream extending at the bottom of the pair around 200,000 light-years resulting from the interaction; and a diffuse faint tidal stream at the top. The pair are listed in the ARP catalog of peculiar galaxies as ARP 93. Imaged in LRGB on our PlaneWave CDK1000 at Obstech - Observatorio El Sauce, Chile.

Today I learnt something cool 🛰️ Every single time we open gmaps, move money online, post on social media, an orchestra of satellites sync in harmony to position us in space. But these satellites move, too. So I was wondering, how do they measure their own position in space to ultimately be able to give us ours? Turns out they rely on the 4588 quasars (think big bright black holes) on the edges of our known universe that make up the ICRF (International Celestial Reference Frame). They're so far they're essentially "still" in our frame of reference. The diagram below maps all of these radio sources. Last cool anecdote? There are less sources in the bottom part of the frame because there are less telescopes in the Southern Hemisphere. So many layers of different geographic realities. So next time you map your way to the store, remember the cosmos at work behind the scenes.

🌌✨#QuizTime ! This ESA/Hubble image showcases Arp-Madore 2105-332, an interacting galaxy system located 200 million light-years away. Part of the Arp-Madore catalog, it features two galaxies, 2MASX J21080752-3314337 and 2MASX J21080362-3313196. Arp-Madore 2105-332 is categorized as a 'peculiar' galaxy due to its atypical shapes. Emission lines in their spectra signify hot gases and intense star-forming regions. In summary, this captivating image reveals a dynamic galactic system with unique features, showcasing the wonders of the universe. #spacequiz #galacticwonder #curiosity #explorethecosmos #stars #cosmos #universe #astronomy #science #space #NASA #ESA #Hubble #space #telescope #photogram  #spaceisbeautiful  #neverstopexploring  #instaspace #agnirva #innovation #management #digitalmarketing  #technology #creativity #futurism #socialnetworking #motivation
