This remarkable image, processed by Robert Gendler, shows the complex region of the Vela supernova remnant, the glowing material from a massive star that exploded some 11,000 years ago.

Beautiful new infrared image of "star-death" nebula NGC1514 with the #JamesWebb telescope. The dying star in the center is actually a pair of stars that orbit each other in 9 years; the #nebula is hourglass shaped. #astronomy #astroedu #NASA #JWST #space #spacephotography #astroimages #spaceimages

This uncanny image shows LDN43, the cosmic bat nebula -- a region of dark dust & dense gas, where new stars are forming. The nebula is 1400 lightyears away and about 12 lightyears across. #astronomy #astroedu #astrophotos #space #spacephotos #spaceimages #astrophotography #nebula #spacepictures
The dark nebula with catalog number LDN43 resembles a flying bat. It is a cloud of dense gas and dust inside which new stars are forming, accounting for the lighter regions that paint the features of the bat. Image credit: Mark Hanson and Mike Selby.

Another beautiful image, processed by master astro-photographer Robert Gendler from #Hubble and ESO data. Barred spiral NGC 2442, nicknamed the Meathook Galaxy, is roughly 50 million lightyears away.
#astronomy #astroedu #space #spacephotographs #spaceimages #photography #scienceimages #galaxies
We see a spiral galaxy of stars with a big bar of stars across the center and two giant spiral arms of star coming off the ends of the bar. It is nicknamed the Meathook Galaxy, because it resembles a giant meathook.

One of the most beautiful #astronomyphotos ever - the Eagle Nebula as taken by my colleague Travis Rector. The head is at upper left & tail feathers at lower right. It's a cloud of dust and gas, illuminated by the light of energetic new stars within.

This colorful image shows the Eagle nebula, and region of interstellar dust and gas, where new stars are forming, and which happens to resemble an eagle in flight.

Complex, beautiful image, assembled by Rob Gendler, from several visible-light & Infrared telescopes, shows the Ring Nebula, with its many shells of material emitted by a dying star.
#astronomy #astroedu #space #spacephotos #astroimaging #stars #sciencephotos #astrophotography #spaceimages
The Ring Nebula, a "planetary" nebula (misnomer), probably better called a death-shroud nebula. This material, shown in a photo that combines visible-light and infrared images, is emitted in several steps from a dying star, in the process of becoming a dense white dwarf. The hot star excites that material that "lifted off" and makes it glow.

What's your favorite image from our exploration of the solar system? Mine is this image of Saturn casting a shadow on its ring system. The Sun's off to the bottom left, a perspective only a spacecraft image can show us.

As seen from the Moon by the Blue Ghost lander, the Earth eclipsed the Sun. Here the Sun emerges from eclipse and we get a "diamond ring" effect with the first bright flash of the emerging Sun.

Among the most beautiful of #astronomyimages is the view of the Pleiades - a cluster of stars ~450 lightyears away, that are moving through are region of dust and gas, which reflects their light with a blue glow.

We see the Veil Nebula, a small part of a vast ancient remnant of an exploded star, still glowing with colorful emissions from hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur atoms.
#astronomy #astroedu #astrophotography #space #spaceimages #spacephotos #astroimages #NASA #sciencephotos
This colorful region of glowing gas, often called the Veil Nebula, is part of the large, old supernova remnant called the Cygnus Loop. A massive star exploded some 10-20 thousand years ago and the remnant is still glowing in places. Astronomers have determined that oxygen, sulfur, and hydrogen atoms are contributing to the glow.

Brand new #JamesWebbTelescope image of the outflow from a young star, with a #galaxy far, far away, at its upper left tip. In this infrared view, heated dust regions glow reddish.

Infrared image of a Herbig-Haro object -- the outflow from a young star just settling down from its formation process. At its tip in the upper left, resembling a crown, is a much more distant spiral galaxy, which we see face-on. There are also galaxies visible in other parts of this wonderful James Webb Space Telescope image.
