This is a photo of Abell 2744, or Pandora’s Cluster is a giant galactic cluster located 3,982 million light years away in the constellation Sculptor. The cluster is thought to have a very violent history, having formed over 350 million years from a cosmic pile-up of at least four smaller galactic clusters.

On my 3rd watch of The Martian movie and each time I feel more excited about the biggest rock star in my life my Dad. He gave me some of his NASA pendants over the holiday. #NASADAD #Heirlooms #themartianmovie #nasa #MODIS by carolsharks

M44 is one of the closest star clusters to earth. It’s called the Beehive because it looks like a swarm of bees. The cluster is located in the weak constellation of Cancer, close to the Gemini twins. This was one of the first objects Galileo looked at with his new telescope. #amazing #amazing_longexpo #astronomia #astronomy #astrophoto #astro_photography_#astrophotography #astropicsdaily #awesome #bestoftheday #deepsky #deepspace #hubble #instadaily #longexposure #nasa #nightscape #nightsky #photooftheday #picoftheday #sky #space #star #stargazing #stars #starviewig #themilkyway #telescope #universe #universetoday by astropicsdaily

Orion Nebula
#repost @astrophysics_ with @repostapp

This beautiful image shows a region located within the Orion Nebula. This complex region of the Orion Nebula contains both emission and reflection nebula. Located just above the centre of the image is the variable star LL Orionis some 1,500 light years away. This relatively young star produces a stellar wind far more energetic than the stellar wind produced by the sun. The fast moving winds from LL Orionis interacts with the surrounding gas, producing a shock front. The arcing structure located just left of LL Orionis is this shock front that the star is producing. As LL Orionis moves through the Orion Nebula, it creates beautiful shockwaves that produce stunning structures like the arc seen in the image.
What’s your favourite nebula?
