James Webb's 'Pillars of Creation' filled with stars Space telescope updates one of the most iconic images in the history of cosmology, which changed the way we appreciate the universe. EL PAÍS 19 OCT 2022 - 15:17 UTC The largest space telescope ever launched into orbit, the James Webb telescope, has managed to surprise again the Pillars of Creation, the iconic galactic image captured in 1995 for the first time by the Hubble telescope. At 6,500 light-years away, it is possible to glimpse a scene where new stars are emerging and exploding within clouds of interstellar gas and dust over millions of years, now with greater clarity thanks to the wavelengths detected by the Webb's infrared camera (NIRCam). MORE ABOUT THE JAMES WEBB TELESCOPE All about the James Webb Telescope and new images The objective of the Webb mission, co-organized by the American, European and Canadian space agencies, is to renew the old models of star formation with more precise snapshots of this formation inside the immense Eagle Nebula. This time, the newly formed protostars (the bright red orb-shaped dots) become sharper, as they are points that heat up and collapse under their own gravity and are photographed with higher resolution by NIRCam.

KOEKEMOER, A. PAGAN (STSCI) The rippled sides that look like lava are ejections from stars that are still forming, NASA reports, due to young stars periodically spitting out jets that collide with material from the dust and gas environment. The crimson glow that can be seen comes from the hydrogen molecules generated as a result of these collisions. Because of this, scientists estimate that these stars are only a few hundred thousand years old. This is what you've waited for. Journey with us through Webb's breathtaking view of the Pillars of Creation, where scores of newly formed stars glisten like dewdrops among floating, translucent columns of gas and dust: https://t.co/5ea1kCzU5x ... Despite what it may seem, reports the American space agency, in the new version of The Pillars of Creation, what you see are not new galaxies, but the Webb technology allows glimpses through the interstellar medium formed by translucent gas and dust. More than enough reason to "go back" to observe portions of space already known and thus obtain new information.

Kindark on reddit wrote: Kindark Messier 42, or the great Orion Nebula, is located about 1600 light years away. It is the largest and brightest star-forming region as seen from Earth. Its centre is full of bright, blue O and B type stars, formed from the gas which they now illuminate. The bright ball just below the core, separated by the dramatic dark dust lane, is actually the separate nebula Messier 43 (sometimes referred to as De Mairan's Nebula). The bright centre is due to a cluster of stars. The blue nebula to the left is known as the Running Man Nebula, known collectively as NGC 1973, 1975, and 1977, but mainly (and simply) just referred to as NGC 1977. This nebula contains an HII (star-forming) region, with bright blue young stars inside.

M42 The Orion Nebula - Orion nebula picture from this page: https://zakochanyklaun2.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html "In one of the most detailed astronomical images ever made, the Hubble Space Telescope has presented the scientific community with an unprecedented view of the Orion Nebula. This turbulent region, which is a veritable nursery of stars, is one of the most impressive and photogenic celestial objects. The clear, bright image reveals an intricate web of stars forming from dense pillars of gas and dust. The new photo shows large-scale structures never seen before. In a mosaic containing one billion pixels, the Hubble telescope's Advanced Search Camera (ACS) has revealed about 3,000 stars of various sizes. Some of them have never been photographed before in the visible light spectrum. Others are only one-hundredth as bright as stars already photographed in the nebula. Among the new stars that Hubble has photographed are possible white dwarfs, which would be the first time such celestial objects have been observed in the Orion Nebula. These cold celestial bodies are too small to be ordinary stars, failing to sustain the nuclear fusion that keeps stars alive."

Gauteng’s Jacaranda trees in full bloom as streets turn purple Posted by Olerato Ramafsi on 12 October 2022 Gauteng has over 10 million trees and is sometimes referred to as one of the world’s largest urban man-made forests, and every year Jacarandas paint the streets in purple petals. Picture: Sandra Boris The trees are actually indigenous to South America; their history in South Africa can be traced back to as early as 1880, when they were first imported from Argentina. Before the discovery of Gold in the Witwatersrand in 1886, Gauteng was home to Voortrekker farmers who had relocated from Cape Town during The Great Trek. These farmers brought seeds from the Cape and planted Oak, Walnut and Jacaranda trees. According to Anna Smith in The Star of 1945, the first Jacaranda to be planted in the city was at Charlton Terrace in Doornfontein. Smith reported that Tree entrepreneur William Nelson had nurseries in Turffontein where ‘by 1896 he grew 30-million trees, shrubs and plants for general distribution.’ Nelson, whose business was known as Nelsonia Nurseries, apparently planted 106 kilometres of trees along the streets of the newly established suburb of Kensington. The task took a whopping six months to complete. Which is widely believed to be the first time street trees were planted in South Africa at such a large scale. Even with the rich history that comes with them, the trees occupy a peculiar position within South Africa: While being well-loved and noticeable compared to other species they are still invasive aliens. Which makes replanting the trees prohibited and punishable by law. They are capable of withstanding the test of time with a life expectancy of up to 200 years if cared for properly. The trees have managed to become part of South African folklore with many believing they represent a reminder that everyone’s situation can change when the time is right or if you’re a university student, a painful reminder that it may be too late to get your grades up. ...

Puppis A supernova remnant https://www.chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2014/puppisa/puppisa.jpg Bigger: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasamarshall/15012972420 Unprecedented X-ray View of Supernova Remains (NASA, Chandra, 09/10/14) The destructive results of a powerful supernova explosion reveal themselves in a delicate tapestry of X-ray light, as seen in this image from NASA’s Chandra X-Ray Observatory and the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton. The image shows the remains of a supernova that would have been witnessed on Earth about 3,700 years ago. The remnant is called Puppis A, and is around 7,000 light years away and about 10 light years across. This image provides the most complete and detailed X-ray view of Puppis A ever obtained, made by combining a mosaic of different Chandra and XMM-Newton observations. Low-energy X-rays are shown in red, medium-energy X-rays are in green and high energy X-rays are colored blue. These observations act as a probe of the gas surrounding Puppis A, known as the interstellar medium. The complex appearance of the remnant shows that Puppis A is expanding into an interstellar medium that probably has a knotty structure. Supernova explosions forge the heavy elements that can provide the raw material from which future generations of stars and planets will form. Studying how supernova remnants expand into the galaxy and interact with other material provides critical clues into our own origins.

Helix Nebula (NGC 7293), the “Eye of God” https://generalknowledge835930344.files.wordpress.com/2019/03/helix-desktop-wide.jpg?w=1400 - on Constellation Guide: https://thecoffeecorner.net/2019/03/17/helix-nebula-the-eye-of-god/ "The Helix Nebula (NGC 7293) is a bright, large planetary nebula located 650 light years from Earth in the constellation Aquarius. It is one of the closest planetary nebulae to Earth, as well as one of the brightest. With an apparent magnitude of 7.6 and an apparent size of 25 arcminutes, the nebula is visible in binoculars and easily observed in small telescopes in good conditions. Its striking appearance has earned it the nickname the Eye of God Nebula. Planetary nebulae like the Helix are formed when stars that are not massive enough to go out as supernovae expel their outer envelopes at the end of their evolutionary cycles. The stars become white dwarfs – hot remnant stellar cores – that energize the ejected material. White dwarfs are very dense, typically packing a mass similar to that of the Sun into a volume comparable to that of the Earth. The intense ultraviolet radiation from these stars causes the ejected layers of gas to glow. The Helix Nebula is believed to have formed about 10,600 years ago, when the central star, catalogued as GJ 9785, reached the end of its life cycle and shed its outer layers into space. The nebula’s age is believed to be in the range between 9,400 and 12,900 years based on the measured expansion rate of 31 km/s−1." ... ...

What is and what is not a bipolar disorder, the most trivialized serious mental problem "Don't confuse it with normal mood swings, intense emotional reactions, or unstable personalities. Bipolar disorder is probably the most trivialized serious mental disorder. In contrast to the terms schizophrenia or anorexia nervosa, which bring to mind something sordid and dark, the so-called “bipolarity” hints at a playful alternation between the expansive and the sad, between the friendly and the angry. “My boss must be bipolar” or “I'm a little bipolar” – followed by a knowing chuckle – are already classics of contemporary trivial conversations. This misunderstanding is particularly unfair to the patients and families who do suffer from this serious disorder, the seventh leading cause of disability worldwide. ... ... ... the intensity and the depth of normal human emotions are not a bipolar disorder. Additionally, bipolar disorder can be confused with an emotional instability caused by certain character traits. ... ... ... There are personality traits, of multifactorial cause, such as the permanent desire to please others or to be the center of attention, to control the environment (including our loved ones), the need to be endlessly admired and flattered, a real or imagined fear of abandonment, and more, which easily lead to emotional instability, to sudden mood changes. A person starts the day quite happy, but finds out that they are not invited to the company dinner (the email went to the spam folder) and suddenly their heart goes to their feet and they think that they are being ghosted and that no one appreciates and loves them enough, and they become filled with rage and contemplation. Indeed: your boss is not bipolar, she is probably narcissistic or controlling. Bipolar disorder is something else. It affects around 1.5% of the population and is the alternation of phases of depression (an actual depressive illness, not “slumps” or frustrations) with manic episodes in which the subject is abnormally expansive or irritable, with verbosity, accelerated thinking, megalomaniacal ideas of omnipotence, a reduction in sleep hours (not insomnia: the patient does not need to sleep), impulsiveness, risky behavior, exorbitant expenses and, in almost half of the cases, delusions and hallucinations (they may believe that they have powers or hear voices). It is a serious thing: the patient does not think they have any problem at all – it is common for them to refuse admission or medication – and it's hard to predict how the case will end, but it could be badly. Fortunately, there are useful drugs to “reduce” these conditions and others – the blessed lithium salts, to which at least a third of patients fully respond – that prevent relapses. We have more trouble treating bipolar depression, as there are fewer and less effective tools, and much of the disability of the disorder is associated with it. At Barcelona's Hospital Clìnic they have one of the world's leading groups for bipolar disorder, and one of their contributions has been to provide evidence of the efficacy of psychoeducation for this disease. Giving the patient tools to learn about the disorder, to deal with it, to minimize its impact on each one's personal project, to adhere to treatments that work... this has turned out to be essential for a good evolution. Bipolar disorder is a serious condition and we must offer all effective resources for the affected population, in a universally accessible way. This requires providing means, personnel and knowledge, and fighting the trivialization of the term."

Each ring was created when the stars came close together and their stellar winds collided, compressing the gas and forming dust. Image Credits: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, JPL-Caltech. A new image from James Webb Space Telescope reveals a remarkable cosmic sight: at least 17 concentric dust rings emanating from a pair of stars. Located just over 5,000 light-years from Earth, the duo is collectively known as Wolf-Rayet 140. Each ring was created when the two stars came close together and their stellar winds (streams of gas they blow into space) met, compressing the gas and forming dust. The stars’ orbits bring them together about once every eight years; like the growth of rings of a tree’s trunk, the dust loops mark the passage of time. “We’re looking at over a century of dust production from this system,” said Ryan Lau, an astronomer at NSF’s NOIRLab and lead author of a new study about the system, published today in the journal Nature Astronomy. “The image also illustrates just how sensitive this telescope is. Before, we were only able to see two dust rings, using ground-based telescopes. Now we see at least 17 of them.” Here: Star Duo Forms ‘Fingerprint’ in Space, Webb Finds: https://orbiterchspacenews.blogspot.com/2022/10/star-duo-forms-fingerprint-in-space.html Home page: https://orbiterchspacenews.blogspot.com/

Fake 'Russian astronaut' scammed woman out of over $41K to 'return to Earth' by Sarah Do Couto - GlobalNews.ca October 12, 2022 A fake Russian astronaut scammed a Japanese woman out of over $41,000. He claimed he needed the funds to return to Earth to marry her. Getty Images Love knows no boundaries, even planetary ones. A 65-year-old Japanese woman fell victim to an international romance scam concocted by someone claiming to be a Russian astronaut in need of funds to return to Earth, local police have reported. Japan’s Shiga Prefectural Police claimed the victim from Higashiomi City sent the scammer around 4.4 million yen (about $41,340) over the span of several months. The pair met on Instagram in June when the faux astronaut sent the woman a message and claimed to be working at the International Space Station, police allege. The Japanese television network TV Asahi claimed the scammer’s profile included several photos taken from space. Kyodo News, a Tokyo-based news agency, reported the pair also communicated through a messaging app called Line. There, the scammer claimed he was in love with the victim and wanted to return to Earth to marry her. But there was one catch: the scammer claimed he needed to pay out-of-pocket for several elements of his return journey, including a rocket and its “landing fees,” Kyodo News reported. The scammer told the woman he loved her and wanted to start a new life with her in Japan, but this could only happen after buying the rocket to fly to the country, he claimed. The woman complied and sent the “astronaut” repeated monetary transactions to a specified bank account. When the scammer continued to insist that she send more money, the victim became suspicious and alerted police. Online romance scams — though they seldom feature astronauts — have grown in popularity in recent years. In 2021, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre reportedly received 1,249 complaints of romance scams from 925 Canadian victims. The reported Canadian loss was more than $50 million, the second highest amount of fraud-related dollar loss that year. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police encourage social media users to remain skeptical of messages from unknown persons. The organization recommends conducting a thorough internet search of a person’s identity. They also claim that if a person has “fallen in love fast” or asks for money, it should be seen as a red flag. If you or someone you know is victim to an online romance scam, you should file a report with the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.

Compare the "Mystic Pillar" by Judy Schmidt - with "La montaña mística en la nebulosa Carina. The mystical mountain in the Carina nebula" by: Germán Penelas Perez https://www.flickr.com/photos/139762596@N02/50967908022/ The English translation of its description in Spanish here: "Photo processed by me from the files in the Hubble Legacy Archive. I have used three files at different wavelengths S (II), H (alpha) + N (II) and O (III), with wavelengths of 673nm, 657nm and 502 nm. Processed with Pixinsight and PS. In the processing I have tried to extract to the maximum the small and large structures that are seen in the mystical mountain. The Mystic Mountain is a magical place, an impressive formation of gas and stellar dust located in the Carina Nebula, 7,500 light years from Earth. Winds and highly energetic ultraviolet radiation from newly formed massive stars are evaporating and scattering the stellar beds of dust and gas where they formed. In the nebula there are jets of dust and gas known as objects by Herbig Hero, its discoverers, and those that are seen above and below are called HH901 and HH902. In the pillar that is higher, a horizontal jet of 0.61 light years is observed. It is being launched into space by a young star hidden at the top of the pillar structure. And you can see that an electric arc has formed near the tip of the jet. The Carina Nebula is a cold cloud of primarily hydrogen and dust. The data in the visible were taken by the Hubble space telescope in 2010. The Carina Nebula is also called the Keel, Eta Carinae (for the hypergiant star Eta Carinae) or NGC 3372. It is an emission nebula. Surrounding the star Eta Carinae is the Homunculus Nebula. The Carina Nebula can be photographed in its entirety with a 600mm focal length telescope and an FF chip-sized camera."
