We present submillimeter statistical detections of galaxies discovered in the 5'У?5' Spitzer Early Release Observations (to ~4-15 ЮМJy 5 Я? at 3.6-8 ЮМm, 170 ЮМJy at 24 ЮМm) through a stacking analysis of our reanalyzed SCUBA 8 mJy survey maps and a Spitzer identification of a new submillimeter point source in the 8 mJy survey region. ... We also marginally detect the Spitzer 24 ЮМm galaxies at 850 ЮМm at 97% confidence and place limits on the mean submillimeter fluxes of the 3.6 and 4.5 ЮМm sources. ...

... Massive stars, having 10-150 masses of the Sun, with metallicities Z tens to hundreds times less than that of the Sun (Zo), are the main regulators of the galaxy formation and evolution processes in the early Universe. ... In this galaxy, using the 6 m BTA telescope, a new massive blue variable star with high luminosity (>=10 5 Sun's luminocities in visible light) was found. As far as its properties are concerned, this star falls into an LBV (Luminous Blue Variable) class of stars. ...

Finally, we argue that the red-sensitive surveys (ESO R; POSS II-R, POSS II-IR) are the best suitable material for galaxy searches in the zone of avoidance. ... As the fifth part in our series of papers on galaxies in the "zone of avoidance" (ZOA) of the Milky Way we present 1346 new galaxy candidates discovered during a systematic search on Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSSI-E) red-sensitive prints. ...

... 2001 July 25 . Hot Gas Halo Detected Around Galaxy NGC 4631 . ... Explanation: Is our Milky Way Galaxy surrounded by a halo of hot gas? ... Since NGC 4631 is similar to the Milky Way , this observation indicates that our own Galaxy is indeed surrounded by a halo of hot X-ray emitting gas, although we are too close to clearly differentiate it from more nearby extended X-ray sources. The clusters of massive stars probably heat the halo gas. ... About APOD | ...

Detected Supernovae . The search have produced till now the detections of 4 SNe. ... This result highlights the power of infrared monitoring in detecting Obscured SNe and indicates that optical surveys are probably missing a significant fraction of SNe, especially in obscured systems such as starburst galaxies. ... In Fig. we show the archival SOFI image of NGC3256 (left) and the first image obtained in 2001 (right) where SN2001db has been detected. ...

25th of August 2015 . Kathryns Wheel: A spectacular galaxy collision discovered in the Galactic neighbourhood . ... Parker et al. (2015) report the discovery of the closest collisional ring galaxy to the Milky Way. ... The spectacular nature of the object had been overlooked because of its location in the Galactic Plane (b = -7.9 degr) and proximity to a bright star and even though it is the 60th brightest galaxy in the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) . ... today * ATNF | Parkes | ...

... These other worlds are the moons of our Solar System , of which there are approximately 170 in orbit around our planets.Some of these moons are very interesting, and have diverse and unique features, very different to our barren, heavily cratered Moon .Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system has the most moons of any planet with known 64 moons in orbit.The four ... Ganymede, the largest moon in the Solar System thought to have oceans located underneath its icy surface.( ...
