Join Slooh for a special Star Party Live on Sunday, June 13th at 1 PM EST! ✨✨✨
The Slooh Ambassadors (which includes me) have been working on this Women are From Venus star party that hopes to encourage women to participate in astronomy! 🎊🎊🎊
Jenny McFarlane will be discussing how she expands astronomy outreach at her planetarium! There will also be other talks made by other Slooh women who are passionate about space. 🙌🙌🙌
All you need to do is to make a free account at Slooh.com and then watch the star party on the website! If you are a woman and would like to participate in the Zoom, send an email to paul@slooh.com for the Zoom passcode. Please let me know if you have any questions and I hope you can attend 💖💖💖

Note-taking is one of the most essential skills a student should master. It allows you to record and review information to be used in the future. But what’s the best way to do so? Here’s an overview of note-taking styles that can help you maximize your learning!
M16, Eagle Nebula

This is Haley’s Coronet! 👑👑👑
The interaction between the larger spiral galaxy and its dwarf galaxy have created plumes of dust around the duo. The process of the larger galaxy eating the smaller one is actually called galactic cannibalism (spooky)! 👻👻👻

This is the Cat’s Paw Nebula! 🐾🐾🐾
This nebula is glowing due to the interactions between its hot stars and large molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. This makes it particularly bright in the infrared and a common target for astrophotography in the Milky Way galaxy! 🔭🔭🔭

One of my best shots of this stunning galaxy! Please follow my astrophotography tumblr (mystarypi-astronomy.tumblr.com) for similar astrophotos like these!
This is the Silver Coin Galaxy! 💸💸💸
This is one of the brightest and dustiest galaxies known to Earth. With so much dust, star formation is aggressive in this galaxy and thus, it is classified as a starbust galaxy! ✨✨✨
Many scientists think that the star formation may have also been caused by the Silver Coin Galaxy’s collision with a dwarf galaxy billions of years ago! 🌌🌌🌌

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! ✨✨✨
