This Is The Blue Moon! 🌝✨🌝✨🌝✨

This is the Tarantula Nebula! 🌈🌈🌈

For some reason, this photo really highlighted the red and blue colors of this nebula - making it look a lot more colorful. This huge star-forming region is located in our satellite galaxy, the Large Magellanic Cloud, and has hot gas up to a million degrees in temperature that shape this nebula! ✨✨✨

This is the Heart Nebula! 💖💖💖

Happy Valentine’s Day! To celebrate this occasion, here is the beautiful Heart Nebula, an emission nebula with dark dust lanes and glowing red hydrogen gas. The heart shape of the nebula is driven by stellar winds from the hot stars inside, some of which have masses up to 50 times the Sun! 💕💕💕

This is the Gabriela Mistral Nebula! 💫💫💫

Gabriela Mistral is a Chilean poet who was the first Latin American author to win a Nobel Prize in Literature. This nebula has her name because some believe that it resembles her (I honestly don’t know why 😂). Millions of years ago, a deposit of gas resulted in a surge of star formation that heats up and radiates this region today! ✨✨✨

This is Ceres! 🌠🌠🌠

Ceres is the only dwarf planet in our inner solar system and the largest object within the Asteroid Belt. Water vapor is being released from the dwarf planet, resulting in Ceres losing 6kg of its mass per second through steam! 🌊🌊🌊

This is the Trifid Nebula! 🌺🌺🌺

With an age of around 300,000 years, this nebula is one of the youngest emission nebulae known. Its name comes from the multiple dust lanes across the nebulae that cover a newly born cluster of stars! ✨✨✨
