⏱️Under 48 hours to Artemis II

A big moment for human exploration and for Europe’s role in returning to the Moon. At the ❤️ of Orion is the European Service Module: delivered by ESA and built by 10 Member States across Europe.

The 🌑 is not a short term endeavour. Europe is in it for the long run.

Here is a movie of last night’s X1.5-class #SolarFlare! Forecasters are predicting the eruption from this flare could trigger a moderate to strong (G2-G3) geomagnetic storm on Tuesday/Wednesday, although a nearby coronal hole could complicate things somewhat.

Chandra telescope spots first alien 'astrosphere' around a sun-like star The first bubble of hot gas seen around another star has been spotted around the "Moth," just 117 light-years away. What it is: HD 61005, a sun-like star nicknamed the "Moth" Where it is: About 117 li...

NASA’s Chandra Telescope took this image of a young (100 million year-old) sun‑like star HD 61005 ~120 light years away showing formation of an early heliosphere and how stellar winds interact with local galactic environments around forming planetary systems.

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Two images of a planetary nebula in space. The image to the left, labelled “Euclid & Hubble”, shows the whole nebula and its surroundings. A star in the very centre is surrounded by white bubbles and loops of gas, all shining with a powerful blue light. Farther away a broken ring of red and blue gas clouds surrounds the nebula. The background shows many stars and distant galaxies. A white box indicates the centre of the nebula and this region is the image to the right, labelled “Hubble”. It shows the multi-layered bubbles, pointed jets and circular shells of gas that make up the nebula, as well as the central star, in greater detail.

📸 This new NASA/ESA #Hubble Space Telescope image features the Cat’s Eye Nebula (NGC 6543).

Hubble’s sharp vision meets Euclid’s wide view to uncover this spectacular portrait of a dying star.

A growing heart! 💖

Just in time for #ValentineDay and using our VLT & ALMA, astronomers led by Chalmers University uncovered two expanding heart-shaped clouds. Swipe through the images to see this cosmic heart grow!
