Me watching the South meet ice: “Y’all don’t… pre-salt? pre-plan? pre-anything?”
Also me: checks education rankings
Ah. That explains the “thoughts & prayers” infrastructure budget. #politicssky #politics #downsouth #southernsky #icestorm

I love riling up my mom because her Memphis comes out real quick. Today it was: "Let me alone and leave me be!" 👩🏾‍🍳💋

4/10 SPEED DEMON: The telescope moves 10-100 times faster than existing telescopes, wheeling to new positions in seconds.

This allows complete Southern Sky coverage every three to four nights—creating unprecedented cosmic time-lapse.

Image of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), a dwarf irregular galaxy orbiting the Milky Way. The SMC, located 250,000 light-years away, is rich in young, blue stars, indicative of recent star formation. This image showcases its diffuse structure and numerous stars against the backdrop of the night sky.

#SouthernSky captured by my son at 8pm this evening from Bombala

A stunning deep-space image showcasing the brilliant glare of Alpha Centauri, a binary star system 4.3 light-years away. The image also reveals the planetary nebula Hen 2-111, open star clusters Pismis 19 and NGC 5617, and a faint supernova remnant, all nestled within the rich star fields of the Milky Way's galactic plane. The vibrant colors and contrasting textures highlight the beauty and complexity of our celestial neighborhood.

A stunning image of the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), also known as the Keyhole Nebula. This vibrant nebula is illuminated by the dying star Eta Carinae, near the center. The image showcases the nebula's intricate structures in hues of red (sulfur), green (hydrogen), and blue (oxygen), representing the elements expelled by the star in its final stages.

A stunning telescopic view of the Great Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), a massive star-forming region 7,500 light-years away. The image showcases glowing gas filaments, dark dust clouds, and the bright star Eta Carinae, possibly on the verge of a supernova. Trumpler 14 star cluster is also visible. The vibrant colors and intricate details reveal the nebula's breathtaking beauty and violent processes.

Are y'all familiar with that tradition that says women aren't allowed to leave the house untill a man crosses their threshold? Also It's bad luck if a woman comes to visit before a man does. #blacksky #southernsky

Soaking black-eyed peas for the first peas, collared greens,and corned bread I've made in awhile. It used to be an annual tradition since I was a kid. Time to start this back up!! #SouthernSky #FoodSky (are those things? 😃)

Happy Holidays from the Harvard Plate Stacks! Even to those on the naughty list. In the southern sky there is a dark #nebula called the #coalsacknebula as seen on plates AX01084 from 1925 and AM03487 from 1905.
