Perfectly timed for Halloween, NASA is showing off a remarkable image of a ‘ghost nebula’ captured by the Hubble Space Telescope.

The incredible "Ghost of Cassiopeia" image was captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. (NASA, ESA and STScI; Acknowledgment: H. Arab [University of Strasbourg])

Perseid Meteor Shower 2021 by Jeff Sullivan (https://ift.tt/1cpZOga) On the second best night of the 2021 Perseid meteor shower, one night before peak, we had some luck in this location in Nevada, despite some wildfire smoke.

I’ll have some time-lapse footage available shortly. https://flic.kr/p/2mhjQJg

Happy Solstice 2020!

The evening began with a beautiful sunset:

...though pretty clouds meant Jupiter and Saturn's closest dance was a little fuzzy:

They'd traded places and moved much closer than on Saturday:

This longer Saturday exposure shows Saturn's biggest moon, Titan (arrow), and all four of Jupiter's Galilean moons:

...and here's Jupiter's moons plus Titan (arrow; another arrow points out Amalthea hugging its parent world) tonight:

Happy Great Conjunction Day!

Through hardships, to the stars 🌌

My proudest shot.

By: @emspectrumimaging

Me and my favorite humans embarked on an adventure to moab to camp for 4 days. I came out here with an idea of what I wanted to do, see, and accomplish. I had no idea how blown away I would be, and how much I needed this. We spent the day hiking and swimming in the most beautiful watering hole I've ever seen, checked out the colorado river, and saw the most vivid sunset in the middle of a giant Arch. All smiles, awestruck by the beauty of it all. Once nightfall rolled around, we packed up a bunch of gear and went back to the arches for some astrophotography under the Arches, a bucket list I've had for sooo long. The experience was so surreal, we had the entire park to ourselves and stayed till 4AM because it was just SO FUCKIN FUN AND BEAUTIFUL. Incredibly grateful to have the greatest people in my life who are always down to pack up and venture out into the unknown. Y'all support my crazy visions and I'll love you forever for that.
