Tarantula Nebula Star Forming Gas Cloud Sculpture Postcard
tagged with: awesome hubble images, star nurseries, tarantula nebula, large magellanic cloud, hrbstslr tnlmcsfr, tarantula stars, billowing interstellar gas clouds, pictures of galaxies, telescope universe, star forming activity, young hot stars, triggering star formation
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series An awesome mobile phone shell featuring the Tarantula Nebula of the Large Magellanic Cloud, which is the nearest galaxy to the Milky Way, our galactic home. This Hubble image shows old stars from the distant past and rich, interstellar gas clouds feeding the formation of new ones. The most massive and hottest stars are intense, high-energy radiation sources and this pushes away what remains of the gas and dust, compressing and sculpting it. As the whorls and eddies clump and stretch it, gravity takes over and the birth of the next generation of new stars is triggered.

The Rose Galaxies, Arp 273 Postcard
tagged with: star forming activity, awesome astronomy images, new born stars, hot young stars, star nursery, interacting spiral galaxies, breathtaking hubble space photos, rose galaxy, arp 273, hrbstslr trgarp
Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series An amazing outer space picture featuring two interacting galaxies that together form the shape of a rose. The larger of the spiral galaxies, UGC 1810, has a disk that is twisted by the gravitational pull of its companion galaxy, UGC 1813.
Knots of young, hot blue stars bejewel the spirals arms in glistening starlight while below, its smaller, nearly edge-on companion is going through intense star formation at its centre, perhaps triggered by their encounter.
