  1. Located within the Cygnus constellation, the supernova remnant W63 represents a vast shell of expanding debris from a stellar explosion roughly 15,000 years ago. Spanning over 150 light-years, this nebular structure is primarily visible through narrow-band imaging that highlights the glow of ionized hydrogen and oxygen gas. Studying such remnants allows astronomers to analyze the enrichment of the interstellar medium and the complex shock waves generated by high-energy cosmic events. This cosmic shell provides critical data on the lifecycle of massive stars and the chemical evolution of our galaxy. #Astronomy #Supernova #Cygnus #Astrophysics #SpaceScience

  5. As I was driving yesterday from Katwijk to Heidelberg, I didn’t have time to post about the successful second Earth flyby that ESA’s JUICE mission made on Monday, as part of its eight-year journey to Jupiter.

    So here’s one of the images of Earth (& the Moon 🙂) from the JMC monitoring cameras, beautifully processed by my friend @stim3on: they’re not simple RGB devices, so lots of skill & knowledge go into getting a true-colour view 👍
