Out of the Void Poster by Bebops
I hope to display a variety of animal images on this blog to delight us all. I have created many products featuring wildlife and pets for my Zazzle stores, Bebop's Place and Bebop's Weddings, using my original photographs and designs. I am also constantly amazed at the gorgeous animal products available from the rest of the Zazzle community. I am hoping others will enjoy this blog and even be moved to purchase some of these lovely items for gifts or just for the pleasure of having such beauty around.

Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series This mosaic image of the magnificent starburst galaxy, Messier 82 (aka Cigar Galaxy) is a really sharp wide-angle view. M82 is a galaxy remarkable for its webs of shredded clouds and flame-like plumes of glowing hydrogen blasting out from its central regions where young stars are being born, 10 times faster than they are inside in our Milky Way Galaxy.

Happy Birthday, Happy Returns, Carina Nebula Stars Cards
A gorgeous something for Valentine's day to express your love and featuring a cute animal. Click to see, personalize and buy.
tagged with: happy birthdays, best wishes, birthday, special, birthday boy, birthday girl, carina nebula, galaxy stars, hrbstslr carnebngcttst, hubble astronomy pictures, returns, many, your special day, argos navis constellation, carina the keel, star formation, gas clouds, ngc 3372
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series Hubble's view of the Carina Nebula shows star birth in a new level of detail. The fantasy-like landscape of the nebula is sculpted by the action of outflowing winds and scorching ultraviolet radiation from the monster stars that inhabit this inferno. In the process, these stars are shredding the surrounding material that is the last vestige of the giant cloud from which the stars were born. The immense nebula is an estimated 7,500 light-years away in the southern constellation Carina the Keel (of the old southern constellation Argo Navis, the ship of Jason and the Argonauts, from Greek mythology).
The original image is a mosaic of the Carina Nebula assembled from 48 frames taken with Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys. The Hubble images were taken in the light of ionized hydrogen. Colour information was added with data taken at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile. Red corresponds to sulfur, green to hydrogen, and blue to oxygen emission.

Happy Anniversay Darling - Cygnus, The Swan Card
A gorgeous something for Valentine's day to express your love and featuring a cute animal. Click to see, personalize and buy.
tagged with: wedding, anniversary, wedding anniversaries, awesome hubble images, star birth, constellation cygnus the swan, outer space, star nurseries, hrbstslr cygsb, star galaxies, interstellar gas clouds, young hot stars, new star s106ir, star forming activity, glowing hydrogen, turbulence, universe
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series A gorgeous greetings card featuring a star forming region in Constellation Cygnus (The Swan). This Hubble image shows a dust-rich, interstellar gas cloud with a new-born star in the centre of the hour-glass shape. The glowing blue of the hydrogen in this nebula is due to the jets being emitted from the forming star as dust falls into into it and this causes the heating and turbulence of the hydrogen. The star, known as S106 IR, is reaching the end of its birth and will soon enter the much quieter period of adulthood known as the main stage.

Penguin and Egg - Interacting Galaxy Duo, Arp 142 Poster
A gorgeous something for Valentine's day to express your love and featuring a cute animal. Click to see, personalize and buy.
tagged with: interstellar gas clouds, wallart, outer space, hubble space picture, star, interacting galaxies, penguin, egg, warped, hrbstslr paeig
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series What looks like a celestial penguin and egg is really the result of a collision between a spiral and an elliptical galaxy at a whopping 326 million light- years away. The flat disk of the spiral NGC 2936 is warped into the profile of a penguin by the gravitational tug of the companion NGC 2937. The object was first cataloged as a "peculiar galaxy" by Halton Arp in the 1960s. This interacting galaxy duo is collectively called Arp 142.

Monogram Tarantula Nebula, outer space image Leather Wallet
A gorgeous something for Valentine's day to express your love and featuring a cute animal. Click to see, personalize and buy.
tagged with: astronomy, stellar nursery, 30 doradus nebula, massive stars, amazing hubble images, tarantula nebula, outer space, star galaxies, large magellanic cloud, hrbstslr dorneblmc, r136, star cluster
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series Hundreds of brilliant blue stars wreathed by warm, glowing clouds in appear in this the most detailed view of the largest stellar nursery in our local galactic neighborhood. The massive, young stellar grouping, called R136, is only a few million years old and resides in the 30 Doradus (or Tarantula) Nebula, a turbulent star-birth region in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a satellite galaxy of our Milky Way.
There is no known star-forming region in our galaxy as large or as prolific as 30 Doradus. Many of the diamond-like icy blue stars are among the most massive stars known. Several of them are over 100 times more massive than our Sun. These hefty stars are destined to pop off, like a string of firecrackers, as supernovas in a few million years. The image, taken in ultraviolet, visible, and red light by Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3, spans about 100 light-years.
The movement of the LMC around the Milky Way may have triggered the massive cluster's formation in several ways. The gravitational tug of the Milky Way and the companion Small Magellanic Cloud may have compressed gas in the LMC. Also, the pressure resulting from the LMC plowing through the Milky Way's halo may have compressed gas in the satellite. The cluster is a rare, nearby example of the many super star clusters that formed in the distant, early universe, when star birth and galaxy interactions were more frequent.
The LMC is located 170,000 light-years away and is a member of the Local Group of Galaxies, which also includes the Milky Way. The Hubble observations were taken Oct. 20-27, 2009. The blue color is light from the hottest, most massive stars; the green from the glow of oxygen; and the red from fluorescing hydrogen.
