🎂 Hubble gets ready for its 36th anniversary this 24 April with a dazzling image of the Trifid Nebula 🤩 The telescope looked at a scene it first observed in 1997, capturing changes over incredibly short cosmic timescales 👉 www.esa.int/Science_Expl... 🔭 🧪
A tightly cropped Hubble view of a vast star-forming region known as the Trifid Nebula. The top left is bright blue. Brown and amber colours run from top right through the center in irregular, overlapping lines to the bottom-center. At bottom right, the view is almost black. Tiny, amber-coloured stars appear throughout the scene. Toward the left there is a prominent brown shape that looks like a head with two horns. The left horn points left and is wavy. The right horn is triangular and points up. The brown dust continues, flowing down, as if along a back, and up toward the top right. A prominent line, about the same length as the left horn, appears below the middle of the body, and changes from orange to red. A small, separate semi-transparent pillar is left of the head. A few slightly larger, blue foreground stars with four diffraction spikes appear in the bottom half. Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI. Image processing: J. DePasquale (STScI)

🔭 Miam miam les mega-réseaux de satellites 🤢 On est en train de perdre le dernier héritage commun de l'humanité, qui existe depuis toujours : le ciel nocturne. Et c'est terrible de se sentir aussi impuissant face aux entreprises qui développent ces projets sans aucun remords 😢

If you're interested, image 1 is what the output looks like straight out of the Dwarf app after its in-house processing has been run. Image 2 is after I have run my own processing. Note, no new or false colours added, just drawn out from the original data. #astronomy #astrophotography
After the Dwarf Stellar Studio.
After I have run this through Snapseed, Lightleap and Photoshop Lite. All free mobile apps.

Nice meteor caught on the night of 18-19 April. #Astronomy #Astrophotography #Meteor
A meteor passing to the left of the 'Keystone' asterism in Hercules. Caught at 23:11 UT on 18 April 2026 with a Canon 250D and 7.5mm lens at 15s exp, 7.5mm fl, f/3.5, ISO-1600. The meteor is likely from the Antihelion Source - a diffuse source of meteors active all year round and located opposite the Sun in the night sky.

The Elephant Trunk Nebula. A bit noisy but not bad for 45 minutes worth before daylight arrived this morning. All that interstellar gas and dust! Captured by the Dwarf3 scope. #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social
The Elephant's Trunk Nebula (specifically designated IC 1396A) is a dense pillar of interstellar gas and dust. It is located within the much larger IC 1396 emission nebula complex in the constellation Cepheus, roughly 2,400 light-years away.

The trunk itself is about 20 light-years long. The surrounding region spans over 100 light-years in diameter.

🔭 Comet R3 PanSTARRS over a Himalayan Valley Image Credit & Copyright: Basudeb Chakrabarti & Samit Saha ap260420
A starry sky is seen above two tree-covered mountains
that slope up on both sides of the image. In the central
valley the head of a comet is seen, with a long tail 
flowing nearly vertically upward toward the top of the 
tall frame. 
Please see the explanation for more detailed information.
