One of these is that Meyers, as one of the creators and lead authors of the show, has obviously been thinking a lot about this issue to find out how the series draws on a unique mix of sketch comedy, real documentary …

stars in the newly discovered star stream. . Graphics: Meingast et al. / Gaia DR2 (astronomy and astrophysics) . Scientists have discovered a nearby "star stream" that includes thousands of stars spanning the southern sky. They found the discovery thanks to recent data from the Gaia Sky Survey. Star streams are essentially star clusters that have been pulled apart but …

Asteroid Jurgenstock will fly past Earth on Tuesday, February 19, briefly erasing the brightest star in the sky. From Earth's point of view, the asteroid seems to roll right in front of the double star system of Sirius A. According to the International Occultation Timing Association (IOTA), the star will temporarily disappear from view. The time of so-called occultation is …

In this special projection, the Milky Way curves in an arc around the entire picture. The stars in the stream are shown in red and cover almost the entire southern galactic hemisphere. Astronomy & Astrophysics Astronomers at the University of Vienna have identified a star river that flows through our galaxy and covers most of the southern sky. The estimated …

Astronomers say this A recently discovered giant star cluster passes relatively close to our solar system. The cluster contains at least …

Simulation of fusing neutron stars, calculated with supercomputers. Different colors show the mass density and the temperature some time after the fusion and just before the object collapses into a black hole. Quarks are expected to form where temperature and density are higher. The option to measure the gravitational waves of two merging neutron stars offered the opportunity to answer …

<! – -> EarthSky lunar calendars are cool! They make great gifts. Order now. A star-forming region of the Large Magellanic Cloud shines in striking colors in this image taken by ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). The region, known as LHA 120-N 180B – in short N180 B – is a type of fog known as H II region (pronounced …

Photo credits: ESO, A McLeod et al This dazzling region of newly formed stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) was captured by the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer instrument ( MUSE ) on ESO's Very Large Telescope. The relatively small amount of dust in the acute view of LMC and MUSE enabled the detection of complex details of the region …
