To all my followers. I am creating some new blogs to include different interests of mine besides just astronomy and space engine. The first blog will be about rabbits and sharks. I know it sounds like an odd mix, but it covers both my favorites from land and the sea and will include pics of my two buns. A few other possible blogs I might start include general interests, sci-fi stuff, and maybe just thought for the day type material.
The rabbits and sharks blog should be up and running soon.
Top image shows the Andromeda Galaxy rising above the inner-most dwarf planet. From here, the great spiral galaxy covers over 11 degrees of the sky or almost 22 times larger than a full moon on Earth.
Other three images show the inner-most planet, a large ice giant 50 times the mass of Earth orbiting 0.30 AU from the sun.
In the last shot, each of the small stars in the background are actually large bright asteroids in the systems asteroid belt.

An awesome preview of Space Engine 0.999. No release date yet, but it likely will be soon, hopefully by the end of the year.
