Beauty From Chaos
Appearing within the boundless darkness of space, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescopevïs snapshot of NGC 34 looks more like an otherworldly, bioluminescent creature from the deep oceans than a galaxy. Lying in the constellation Cetus (The Sea Monster), the galaxyvïs outer region appears almost translucent, pinpricked with stars and strange wispy tendrils. The main cause for this galaxyvïs odd appearance lies in its past. If we were able to reverse time by a few million years, we would see two beautiful spiral galaxies on a direct collision course. When these galaxies collided into one another, their intricate patterns and spiral arms were permanently disturbed. This image shows the galaxy's bright centre, a result of this merging event that has created a burst of new star formation and lit up the surrounding gas. As the galaxies continue to intertwine and become one, NGC 34vïs shape will become more like that of an peculiar galaxy, devoid of any distinct shape.vä In the vastness of space, collisions between galaxies are quite rare events, but they can be numerous in mega-clusters containing hundreds or even thousands of galaxies.

Satellite opens like umbrella for detailed look at changing Eartth surface
Ferrari Press Agency
Satellite 1

19/08/2025
See Ferrari text
Picture MUST credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
A satellite packed with a giant radar antenna, folded like an umbrella has just unfurled in orbit for a first of its kind mission.
The satellite was launched to monitor Earth’s surfaces detecting movement of the planet’s crust down to centimetres.
The massive, drum-shaped structure is on a mission called NISAR, a joint effort between US space agency NASA and India space agency ISRO.
It launched on July 30 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in India.
More than two weeks later, the satellite deployed its antenna reflector, which spans 12 meters—the largest ever used on a NASA mission.
NISAR is designed to produce a three-dimensional view of Earth in unprecedented detail.
It will enable researchers and data users to create 3D movies of changes happening on Earth’s surface.
It will track the motion of ice sheets and glaciers, the deformation of land due to earthquakes, volcanoes, and landslides, and changes in forest and wetland ecosystems.
It also will aid decision-makers in fields as diverse as disaster response, infrastructure monitoring, and agriculture.

Nixon, right center, and the Apollo 13 crew salute U.S. flag during the post-mission ceremonies at Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii. Earlier, the astronauts John Swigert, right, Jim Lovell, left center, and Fred W. Haise, left, were presented the Presidential Medal of Freedom by the Chief Executive. Apollo 13, launched on April 11, 1970, was NASA's third manned mission to the moon. Two days later on April 13 while the mission was en route to the moon, a fault in the electrical system of one of the Service Module's oxygen tanks produced an explosion that caused both oxygen tanks to fail and also led to a loss of electrical power. The command module remained functional on its own batteries and oxygen tank, but these were usable only during the last hours of the mission. The crew shut down the Command Module and used the Lunar Module as a "lifeboat" during the return trip to earth. Despite great hardship caused by limited power, loss of cabin heat, and a shortage of potable water, the crew returned to Earth, and the mission was termed a "successful failure.".(NASA via CNP/Polaris) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)

The Saturn V stack and its mobile launch tower are atop a huge crawler-transporter. The Apollo 8 crew consists of (left to right) astronauts Frank Borman, commander; James A. Lovell Jr., command module pilot; and William A. Anders, lunar module pilot. In August of 1968, these three NASA astronauts received a call telling them to cancel their winter holiday plans — they were going to the Moon. Fifty years later we are celebrating the historic mission of Apollo 8. (NASA via CNP/Polaris) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)

New planet found four light years from Earth

Astronomers believe they have found a giant planet orbiting a star that’s closest to our own Sun.
The team used US space agency NASA’s James Webb space telescope to identify what they believe is a gas giant planet just four light-years away from Earth, orbiting the star Alpha Centauri A.
Webb was designed and optimised to find the most distant galaxies in the universe.
Alpha Centauri A is the third brightest star in the night sky. It is in a solar system known as a binary with another star called Alpha Centauri B.
They orbit each other once every 80 years.
If confirmed, the new planet, known as an exoplanet, would be the closest to Earth that orbits in the habitable zone of a Sun-like star.
The exoplanet was separated from the star by about two times the distance between the Sun and Earth.
However, because the planet candidate is a gas giant, like Jupiter and Saturn in our own solar system, scientists say it would not support life as we know it.
Several rounds of meticulously planned observations by Webb, careful analysis by the research team, were used along with extensive computer modelling,
It all helped determine that the object is likely to be a planet, and not a background object like a galaxy or a passing asteroid.
OPS: Three-panel image captures the James Webb telescope’s search for the exoplant. .(Left to right) The initial image shows the bright glare of Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B.
The middle panel then shows the system with a light shielding mask placed over Alpha Centauri A to block its bright glare.
In the right panel astronomers have used reference images and algorithms to clean up the image and reveal faint sources like the candidate planet marked S1.

Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge
Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge provides a range of habitats, from saltwater estuaries and freshwater impoundments and marshes to dunes, hardwood hammocks, and scrub. NASA acquires the land in the early 1960s for the development of the Space Center and its non-operational purposes. Until then, and still today, there is little development in the area.
