... Abell 2597 s Cosmic Cavities . ... Typical of large galaxy clusters billions of light-years away, Abell 2597 features hundreds of galaxies embedded in a cloud of multimillion degree gas which glows in x-rays. ... This unusual display of an auroral corona occurred on Earth three days after an unusual solar event -- the fifth most powerful explosion yet recorded on the Sun. An X14-class solar flare on April 15 sent a tremendous Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) into the Solar System. ... May 2003 . ...

On the Metallicity-Color Relations and Bimodal Color Distributions in Extragalactic Globular Cluster Systems by M. Cantiello and J. P. Blakeslee . Many observations on globular cluster systems (GCS) show bimodal distributions in color and metallicity space. ... Based on their simulation study, (V-H) and (V-K) are confirmed to be good colors for revealing unbiased bimodal metallicity distributions in GCS. ...

We present IRAC and MIPS images and photometry of a sample of previously known planetary nebulae (PNe) from the Surveying the Agents of a Galaxy's Evolution (SAGE) survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) performed with the Spitzer Space Telescope. Of the 233 known PNe in the survey field, 185 objects were detected in at least two of the IRAC bands, and 161 detected in the MIPS 24 ЮМm images. ... We also explore the potential value of IR PNe luminosity functions (LFs) in the LMC. ...

As we close in on part of the small constellation of Corona Australis we start to see faint clouds and in the final part of the video the full glory of the dramatic star formation region NGC 6729 is revealed in a new image from the FORS1 instrument on ESOтАЩs Very Large Telescope. ...

... A faint, dusty rose of the northern sky, emission nebula IC 410 lies about 12,000 light-years away in the constellation Auriga. The cloud of glowing hydrogen gas is over 100 light-years across, sculpted by stellar winds and radiation from embedded open star cluster NGC 1893. ... These "tadpoles" (seen just below center) are regions of denser, cooler gas, and more slowly resist the erosive radiation from the hot stars. ...

Astronomers usually measure the flux of an object by collecting light with a telescope, sending it through a known filter, and then determining the power. ... But astronomers usually give their photometric results in terms of magnitudes. ... Astronomers define an absolute magnitude that is independent of the distance of a star and only depends on the intrinsic properties of the object: the absolute magnitude is the magnitude the star would have if it were 10 parsecs away from the Earth. ...

Photon Scattering: Basic Principle of Photon Scattering . Audio Narration is available . No Scattering: Photon Source and Detector . ... For optical photons, scattering goes as wavelength to the -4 power. In the case of blue photons compared to red photons, this means that blue photons are about 10 times more likely to get scattered than red photons. ...

For centuries astronomers wondered whether they were clouds floating in the Sun's atmosphere, but we now know that they really are huge regions of magnetic field, about as intense as the field at the poles of an iron magnet. For some reason the field slows down the flow of heat from the Sun's interior and keeps sunspots slightly cooler than their surroundings. ... Solar Eclipses . ...
