I like astronomy, archaeology, photography, music and drinking a lot of tea. I hate politics. Something that annoys me: that I shall not respect the permanence, and to take me by what I'm not. The best sign: VIRGO. The worst: the health. The best: adapt and know how to get ahead.

COMET C2016 R2 (PANSTARRS) Taken by Fritz Helmut Hemmerich on January 20, 2018 @ Tenerife Canary Islands Spain
Comet C2016 R2 (PanSTARRS). This photo shows the tearing of a cloud-like tail and the appearance of very fine spiral structures, apparently due to a violent rotation of the comet. These spiral structures became visible in the integration of 30 shots (blue filter monochrome) per 120 sec (Hyperstar 14, Starlight Xpress H36) and 120 shots (RASA 11, Sony A7s) per 30 sec. Captured betwenn 22:20h und 23:30h UT.

SMALL FLARE AND A CORONAL MASS EJECTION
The sun shot out a small coronal mass ejection that was also associated with a small flare (Jan. 22, 2018). The video, which covers about 5 hours, shows the burst of plasma as the magnetic loops break apart. Immediately the magnetic fields brighten intensely and begin to reorganize themselves in coils above the active region. The images were taken in a wavelength of extreme ultraviolet light.

LAGUNA STARRY SKY Image Credit & Copyright: Kerry-Ann Lecky Hepburn (Weather and Sky Photography)
Staring toward the heavens, one of the many lagunas in the Atacama Desert salt flat calmly reflects a starry night sky near San Pedro de Atacama, Chile, planet Earth. Cosmic rifts of dust, star clouds, and nebulae of the central Milky Way galaxy are rising in the east, beyond a volcanic horizon. Caught in the six frame panorama serenely recorded in the early morning hours of January 15, planets Jupiter and Mars are close. Near the ecliptic, the bright planets are immersed in the Solar System's visible band of Zodiacal light extending up and left from the galactic center. Above the horizon to the south (right) are the Large and Small clouds of Magellan, satellite galaxies of the Milky Way.
ARCHIMEDES, AUTOLYCUS, ARISTILLUS, CASSINI AND THE NEARBY REGION INCLUDING VALLIS ALPES Taken by Raffaello Lena on January 24, 2018 @ Rome Italy
On January 24 2018 18:10 UT i imaged the craters Archimedes, Autolycus, Aristillus, Cassini and the nearby region including Vallis Alpes and its rille under oblique solar illumination angle using a Mak Cassegrain 18 cm, Lumenera LU075M CCD camera. Image taken by Rome Italy. At the terminator the region and the long shadows display dramatic view also in the image. Despite the turbolence and the faint seeing many features detecable.

THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS - DANGEROUS NIGHT ( AUDIO ) ♥ ♪
"Dangerous Night"
We burned and we bled
We try to forget
But the memories left
Are still haunting
The walls that we built
From bottles and pills
We swallow until
We're not talking
I
I am a man on fire
You
A violent desire
What a dangerous night to fall in love
Don't know why we still hide what we've become
Do you want to cross the line?
We're running out of time
A dangerous night to fall in love
Started a stranger
A lover in danger
The edge of a knife
The face of an angel
The heart of a ghost
Was it a dream?
I
I am a man on fire
You
A violent desire
What a dangerous night to fall in love
Don't know why we still hide what we've become
Do you want to cross the line?
We're running out of time
A dangerous night to fall in love
I
I am a man on fire
You
A violent desire
A dangerous night to fall in love
A dangerous night to fall in love
Do you want to cross the line?
We're running out of time
A dangerous night to fall in love
A dangerous night to fall in love

" Noche Peligrosa "
Ardemos y jugamos, tratamos de olvidar
Pero los recuerdos dejados son obsesivos
Los muros que construimos con botellas y pastillas
Tragamos hasta no hablar
Soy... Soy un hombre en llamas
Tú... Un deseo violento
¡Qué noche peligrosa para enamorarse!
No sé por qué aún ocultamos lo que nos hemos convertido!
¿Quieres cruzar la línea?
Se nos está acabando el tiempo
Una noche peligrosa para enamorarse
Comenzamos un extraño, un amor en peligro de extinción
El filo de la noche
El rostro de un ángel, el corazón de un fantasma
¿Fue un sueño?
PLEIADES AND COMET C/2016 PANSTARRS Taken by Daniele Gasparri on January 16, 2018 @ Copiapó, Atacama
Wide field on the Pleiades cluster and the dust clouds of the Milky Way. In the upper left corner there is also the comet C/2016 PANSTARRS.
SELFIE AT VERA RUBIN RIDGE Image Credit: Image Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech, MSSS - Panorama: Andrew Bodrov
On sol 1943 of its journey of exploration across the surface of Mars, the Curiosity Rover recorded this selfie at the south rim of Vera Rubin Ridge. Of course a sol is a Martian solar day, about 40 minutes longer than an Earth day. Curiosity's sol 1943 corresponds to Earth date January 23, 2018. Also composed as an interactive 360 degree VR, the mosaicked panorama combines 61 exposures taken by the car-sized rover's Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI). Frames containing the imager's arm have been edited out while the extended background used was taken by the rover's Mastcam on sol 1903. At the top of the rover's mast, sitting above the Mastcam, the laser-firing ChemCam housing blocks out the distant peak of Mount Sharp.

MOON LUNAR TERMINATOR Taken by Raffaello Lena on January 24, 2018 @ Rome Italy
On January 24 2018 17:55 UT i imaged Ptolemaeus, Alphonsus and Arzachel under very oblique solar illumination using a Mak Cassegrain 18 cm, lumenera LU075M CCD camera. Image taken by Rome Italy. Note the first solar illumination of the Arzachel central peak as a large white patch and the long shadow cast by Alphonsus central peak. Despite the turbolence and the faint seeing many craterlets on the Ptolemaeus floor are detecable.
CARTWHEEL OF FORTUNE Image Credit: ESA, NASA
By chance, a collision of two galaxies has created a surprisingly recognizable shape on a cosmic scale, The Cartwheel Galaxy. The Cartwheel is part of a group of galaxies about 500 million light years away in the constellation Sculptor. Two smaller galaxies in the group are visible on the right. The Cartwheel Galaxy's rim is an immense ring-like structure 150,000 light years in diameter composed of newly formed, extremely bright, massive stars. When galaxies collide they pass through each other, their individual stars rarely coming into contact. Still, the galaxies' gravitational fields are seriously distorted by the collision. In fact, the ring-like shape is the result of the gravitational disruption caused by a small intruder galaxy passing through a large one, compressing the interstellar gas and dust and causing a a star formation wave to move out from the impact point like a ripple across the surface of a pond. In this case the large galaxy may have originally been a spiral, not unlike our own Milky Way, transformed into the wheel shape by the collision. But ... what happened to the small intruder galaxy?
LOREENA MCKENNITT - BREAKING OF THE SWORD ♥ ♪
" Breaking Of The Sword "
On a sunny April morning
My dear son, you were born
Until one day you were called away
And from my heart was torn
As a boy, you knew the stables
As a lad, you knew the fields
My son, you worked beside me
But to country, you must yield
You were called to serve the country
You were called to serve the king
And from our home, you left one day
And of this, today I sing
When I stood there at the station
And our eyes, one last time met
It was at that moment, my dear son
'Tis that I'll ne'er forget
Is it now a mother's blessing
That the country's truly free?
You gave your life for all of us
And all humanity
As I stand here at your graveside
The spring birds sing their song
My child, I love you more and more
And will my whole life long
You were called to serve the country
You were called to serve the king
And from our home, you left one day
