So freaking cool. File this under extremely important people you never learned about in school. By hand! #amazing #tech #nasa #science #important by mrmorenoismyfather

Hope u succeed beyond ur expectations #nasa #space by taezerrisc

In this picture, a Boeing 747 converted into one of the 2 SCA that NASA has at its disposition. Over the next 20 years, it made 66 flights with a shuttle on its fuselage, including 17 missions in which it ferried shuttles from NASA’s Dryden (now Armstrong) Flight Research Center after landings at Edwards Air Force Base to the Kennedy Space Center on Florida’s east coastline. Upon its retirement on Feb. 8, 2012, it had amassed 33,004 flight hours over its 38-year flight career.

Trapezium in Orion

The Trapezium cluster of young, recently formed stars is the brightest region of the Orion nebula. The center of the Trapezium shows four massive stars and a number of evaporating proto-planetary disks. Most of the ionizing radiation for this part of the nebula comes from the hottest of these four stars.

Another semester completed. Tell me, in the last four months what have you done towards achieving your goal? There better be a response to that. Be weary of those who sit in wait hoping for things to fall neatly into their laps. Appreciate where you’ve come from, but keep charging ahead towards that goal in front of you. #NASA #IvyLeague #NavySEALs #Science by marioromero186

The Hercules Cluster of Galaxies 
Image Credit: Ken Crawford
These are galaxies of the Hercules Cluster, an archipelago of island universes a mere 500 million light-years away. Also known as Abell 2151, this cluster is loaded with gas and dust rich, star-forming spiral galaxies but has relatively fewelliptical galaxies, which lack gas and dust and the associated newborn stars. The colors in this remarkably deep composite image clearly show the star forming galaxies with a blue tint and galaxies with older stellar populations with a yellowish cast. The sharp picture spans about 3/4 degree across the cluster center, corresponding to over 6 million light-years at the cluster’s estimated distance. Diffraction spikes around brighter foreground stars in our own Milky Way galaxy are produced by the imaging telescope’s mirror support vanes. In the cosmic vista many galaxies seem to be colliding or merging while others seemdistorted – clear evidence that cluster galaxiescommonly interact. In fact, the Hercules Cluster itself may be seen as the result of ongoing mergers of smaller galaxy clusters and is thought to be similar to young galaxy clusters in the much more distant, early Universe.
