... Central IC 1805 . ... Credit: Ken Crawford ( Rancho Del Sol Observatory ) Explanation: Cosmic clouds seem to form fantastic shapes in the central regions of emission nebula IC 1805. Of course, the clouds are sculpted by stellar winds and radiation from massive hot stars in the nebula's newborn star cluster (aka Melotte 15). ...

... March 12, 1996 . The Colorful Clouds of Rho Ophiuchi . ... The blue regions shine primarily by reflected light. Blue light from the star rho Ophiuchi and nearby stars reflects more efficiently off this portion of the nebula than red light. ... The Rho Ophiuchi star clouds , well in front of the globular cluster M4 visible on far lower left, are even more colorful than humans can see - the clouds emits light in every wavelength band from the radio to the gamma-ray. ...

The yellow box on the Doppler image outlines the region where anti-parallel flows are seen. ... A cluster of such loops was observed on the solar disk in active region NOAA11934, in the Si iv 1402.8 spectral raster and 1400 slit-jaw (SJ) images. ...

... Values have been scaled arbitrarily. High ratios are shown in blue, corresponding to blue colors, and low ratios are shown in red, corresponding to red colors. ... Noise combined with background subtraction difficulties in the lower left quadrant of the WISP1 data (see Fig. \ref{Fig:wisp_snr_mskd}) make colors in this area very unreliable. ... The values shown here are typically a factor of ~3 less than those calculated for the Schmidt data, shown in Figure \ref{Fig:bj_alpha}. ...

... The star formation history of NGC 6231 appears to be bi­modal, with a first wave of star formation activity 3--5 Myr ago, followed by a new generation of stars forming # 1 Myr ago. ... Star Formation, Pre­main sequence Stars, Open clusters and associations The star formation history of the rich open cluster NGC 6231 has been hotly debated in the literature ever since the suggestion by Eggen (1976) that a violent process must have triggered star formation in the region. ...

... In the nuclear area of the galaxy within the ring, the nucleus appears elongated, and a fainter 3rd star-like component is discernable. ... The 'yellowy' halo about the off-centre nucleus of the ring galaxy is likely composed of redder stars, while the color-neutral nucleus doesn't appear distinctly different in color than either of the ring 'impactor' candidates at bottom center and top right of the picture. ... If so then why are the bright regions within the ring apparently color neutral? ...

... Young stellar clusters in the star forming region NGC 6357 . ... A detailed study of the young stellar population in NGC6357, and in Pismis 24 in particular, is presented in the article " Young open clusters in the galactic star forming region NGC 6357 " (Astronomy & Astrophysics, in press) led by Fabrizio Massi (INAF-Observatory of Arcetri) and including Andrea Giannetti (INAF-IRA Bologna), Maria Teresa Beltran (INAF-Observatory of Arcetri) and collaborators in Bologna, Teramo and Chile. ...

These values are compared to the observed H II region luminosities, yielding an estimate for the mean fraction of H-ionizing photons that escape the local nebulae in this sample. We formally estimate that, overall, 0-51% of the ionizing radiation escapes the local H II regions and is available to ionize the warm, ionized medium in the LMC. ...

It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...
