... WFPC2 , HST , NASA Explanation: Planetary nebulae are strange. ... But now yet another mystery has come to light: what created the fast-moving gas clouds that appear around planetary nebula ? Dubbed FLIERs for Fast Low-Ionization Emission Regions, these knots of dense gas appear to have been ejected from the central star before it cast of the planetary nebula. ... In the above false-color picture of NGC 7662, the Blue Snowball Planetary Nebula , the FLIERs are featured in the image inserts. ...

I Can't See ( Barlow /Gaffney) I didn't really want to hold your hand I didn't wanna wait around to understand You were just a test to cut into my heart With nothing real around I cried to you instead Wanted you to think you'd struck another boy I fell in love as if I had no other choice A little nothing child who just misunderstood A little friendship for something true and good I'm into things I can't ...

... December 23, 1998 . Ring Around the Galaxy . ... Explanation: It is difficult to hide one galaxy far behind another. The closer galaxy's gravity will act like a huge lens , pulling images of the background galaxy around both sides. This is just the case observed in the above recently released image from the VLT : the red galaxy in the middle is in the foreground, lensing the image of the background green galaxy into surrounding contorted arcs . ...

... A cyclic convolution of an input image weighted by gives output according to the following prescription: . ... The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm used by the task works most efficiently if each dimension of the image is a multiple of 2, 3, 5 or 7. ... If the image is large and the number of convolvers small, this will generally be the FFT method; however direct convolution becomes more efficient if the image is divided into many small patches of different convolution. ...
