Stardust in the Perseus Molecular Cloud : Clouds of stardust drift through this deep skyscape, across the Perseus molecular cloud some 850 light-years away. Dusty nebulae reflecting light from embedded young stars stand out in the nearly 2 degree wide telescopic field of view. With a characteristic bluish color reflection nebula NGC 1333 is at center, vdB 13 at top right, with rare yellowish reflection nebula vdB 12 near the top of the frame. Stars are forming in the molecular cloud, though most are obscured at visible wavelengths by the pervasive dust. Still, hints of contrasting red emission from Herbig-Haro objects, the jets and shocked glowing gas emanating from recently formed stars, are evident in NGC 1333. The chaotic environment may be similar to one in which our own Sun formed over 4.5 billion years ago. At the estimated distance of the Perseus molecular cloud, this cosmic scene would span about 40 light-years. via NASA

- day 85/100 days of productivity

last exam day for this November and for semi final !!

tomorrow, we have no classes so I really love how I'll be able to rest the whole day, hahaha

Also, our prof for microbio, medterm and cardiorespi anaphy have already released our grades for semi final and... I'm happy with my results, especially with cardiorespi :)) I'm not one to share much about grades but I'm just really proud with how I was able to get 1.25 (97) for my semi final grade in cardiorespi with how exhausted and stressed I've been the whole term and the other two subjects also resulted really good.

I shall manifest the same result for finals and the next semesters to come 🙏.

For today's productivity !!

academic

woke up early morning to read over the chapters once again

and write down notes from memory for CRAP exam

non-academic

started re-reading The Catastrophic History of You & Me by Jess Rothenberg

started watching The Way of the Househusband

didn't do anything academic after exam, just took a long nap with Bobby and relaxed, listening to music

Hoping everyone also take a good, good rest especially once you get done with your major exams, assignments, task... 🤍
