+ All the people who are anti-Al or want to slow Al progress, I have one question:
If Al disappeared tomorrow, could you still get through an entire workday without ChatGPT, Claude, or any other
Al tool?
Imagine Al was suddenly banned.
Would you actually be willing to give it up?

The Colourful Angel Nebula in Monoceros - From Rolf Wahl Olsen - https://flic.kr/p/2p1VieY

The Angel Nebula is a strikingly colourful nebula that includes NGC 2170 and NGC 2182. It is located some 2,500 light-years away towards the constellation Monoceros and is part of the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex, a region of active star formation in our Milky Way galaxy. The Angel Nebula owes its name to the ethereal and delicate appearance of its dust and gas clouds, which resemble the outstretched wings of an angel.

The interplay of light, dust, and gas makes the nebula one of the most colourful areas in the entire sky. The celestial scene features subtle variations in colour and intensity throughout its expanse, adding complexity and depth to the nebula's overall appearance. These variations are primarily due to differences in the density and composition of the interstellar material within the nebula, as well as variations in the temperature and luminosity of the embedded stars.
Within the nebula, several young, massive stars are concealed by the surrounding dust and gas clouds. These stars are part of the ongoing process of star formation and their intense radiation and powerful stellar winds contribute to the nebula's intricate structure and colourful glow.
Illuminated by the brilliant, hot stars within and around it, the nebula glows, scatters and reflects their light to produce a stunning display of colours. Vivid blue regions are indicative of the presence of dust particles that scatter blue light while allowing longer wavelengths to pass through. The patches ...

Close Encounter with the Tarantula - From Goddard Space Flight Center - https://flic.kr/p/cPfnQ5

NASA image release August 10, 2012

Turning its eye to the Tarantula Nebula, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has taken this close-up of the outskirts of the main cloud of the Nebula.

The bright wispy structures are the signature of an environment rich in ionized hydrogen gas, called H II by astronomers. In reality these appear red, but the choice of filters and colors of this image, which includes exposures both in visible and infrared light, make the gas appear green.

These regions contain recently formed stars, which emit powerful ultraviolet radiation that ionizes the gas around them. These clouds are ephemeral as eventually the stellar winds from the newborn stars and the ionization process will blow away the clouds, leaving stellar clusters like the Pleiades.

Located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, one of our neighboring galaxies, and situated at a distance of 170,000 light-years away from Earth, the Tarantula Nebula is the brightest known nebula in the Local Group of galaxies. It is also the largest (around 650 light-years across) and most active star-forming region known in our group of galaxies, containing numerous clouds of dust and gas and two bright star clusters. A recent Hubble image shows a large part of the nebula immediately adjacent to this field of view.

The cluster at the Tarantula nebula’s center is relatively young and very bright. While it is outside the field of view of this image, the energy from it is responsible for most of the brightness o...

The Great Wall of Ara - NGC 6188 (Narrowband Colour) - From Rolf Wahl Olsen - https://flic.kr/p/Vv4rYE

www.rolfolsenastrophotography.com

NGC 6188 is a large emission nebula located some 4000 light years distant in the southern constellation Ara. This giant molecular cloud is being illuminated by the young star cluster NGC 6193 which in this image appears in the upper centre, almost as if suspended above a cloud of dense nebulosity which forms a great wall across the field of view.

The cluster belongs to the Ara OB1 association and is very young, not older than 3 million years, and contains some 30 stars. At the centre of the cluster lies an intensely bright pair of stars; the O-type giants HD 150135 and HD 150136. The latter is in fact itself an extremely close binary with a confirmed third component in an outer eccentric orbit of between 2950 and 5500 days. This triple star system is one of the most massive in our galaxy with the three components containing 64, 40 and 35 solar masses respectively.

The intense radiation from the massive stars is slowly eroding the surrounding gas and dust away, sculpting it into the striking forms seen in this image. Within these clouds new stars are currently being born and in some places have already begun to light up the nebulous clouds from within. The intricately shaped dust and gas provide for a stunning interplay of light and shadow throughout the area and the entire scene is littered with thousands of dimmer stars in a multitude of colours. Especially in the lower part of the image several long shadows can be seen cast by the glo...

Deep View of the Tarantula Region with Light Echoes from SN1987a - Narrowband Bicolour - From Rolf Wahl Olsen - https://flic.kr/p/2mm7Jym

This image shows what I believe is the first amateur detection of light echoes from SN1987a - 33 years after the event.
The light echoes are produced when the initial flash from SN1987a is subsequently reflected off interstellar dust as light travels outward from the event. Direct light from the supernova was observed on Earth in 1987, and we then see light reflected from dust in the interstellar space arriving later because it has travelled further to reach us.

The detection of light echoes was created by subtracting two Luminance images taken almost 8 years apart, on 24th Oct 2012 and 21st Sep 2020 respectively, in order to create a difference image which was then superimposed on a regular colour image of the area. The expanding light echoes appear as roughly circular concentric arcs, centered on SN1987a's location.

The image is a mosaic of two deep fields centered near the bright Tarantula Nebula (NGC 2070) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The field is filled with numerous bright colourful nebulae and star clusters (an annotated version is available here). At the LMCs distance of approximately 160,000 light years, the field of view seen here spans a massive 2850 x 1950 light years!
At this large scale the nebulosity seem to feature many bubble shaped voids of different sizes. These are formed by the radiation pressure from young star forming regions and shockwaves from ancient supernovae. The small but comparatively recent supernova remnant of SN1987a is also vis...
