The open cluster NGC 225 is 2,200 lightyears far. It’s surrounded by dust, gas & very young stars, the dark nebula LDN 1297 and the reflexion one vdB4: an incredible view!

Image done by Jaume Zapata & Xavier Bros from the Anysllum Observatory remotely operated, @AstroSabadell.

Another video by Astrotolva!

Wonderful video about NGC 4565 with an incredible image done by my friend Lluis Romero, Astrotolva, member of @AstroSabadell.
Open the sound and enjoy!

New exoplanet transit, the fifth, detected from the Anysllum Observatory: KELT-23Ab.
A Jupiter-like planet (a giant gas) orbiting very close to a star similar to our sun (Sp G) with a period of only 2.3 days...
This exoclock light curve has been done with my friend Jaume Zapata

Free-floating rogue planets, ejected from their natal star systems may outpopulate our galaxy. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has detected recently a microlensing event: a candidate of a terrestrial mass one! arxiv.org/abs/2404.11666

Juan C. Bermúdez:

“Excelente novela de ciencia ficción que navega por cuatro historias que se entrelazan, revelando la naturaleza humana a partir de conversaciones con inteligencias artificiales. Un libro recomendadísimo…”

Japanese people descended from 3 ancestral groups: Neolithic Jomon hunter-gatherers; a Han Chinese predecessor group & an unidentified Northeast Asia one.
Their DNA was inherited also from Neanderthals (42 pieces) & Denisovans (2): tinyurl.com/56fazj7p

Detail of just a part of the ring of M57 “Ring Nebula” the archetypal of a planetary nebula.
This amazing image has been done by the James Webb Space Telescope with its NIRCam Camera.
See the intricate details in this image!

Found near the island of Kasos, Greece, ten shipwrecks dating back to prehistory (3000 BC), the classical period (460 BC), the Hellenistic (100 BC-100 AD), the Roman (200 BC-300 AD) and the Byzantine period (800-900 AD): tinyurl.com/ycyezu7x

Second color processing!
The Beehive Cluster, a ~1000 stars open cluster. It's a naked eye object I remember to watch with binoculars & small telescope when I was a child.
Few years later… I did this image with Jaume Zapata from the 'Anysllum' observatory with our second setup.

Incredible mosaic with many nebulas in the Large Magellanic Cloud, with the Tarantula #nebula at left and wonderful structures & details: Image done by Don Goldman and Josep Maria Drudis, member of @AstroSabadell. Amazing !

NGC 1512 is a barred spiral galaxy located 30 million light-years away.
It spans 70,000 light-years, nearly as much as our own Milky Way galaxy.
Image done with the near-infrared camara of JWST. See the sharp details of its inner structure:

Incredible Mercury:
Heavily cratered and geologically inactive for billions of years. Its surface temperature is between -173 °C at night to 427 °C during the day.
Mercury's core, plenty of iron, is almost 85% of the planetary radius.

The cultural gap between humans and ETs could be absolutely huge. The communication with them, if one day will be possible, will be very very difficult.
May be more difficult than the cultural gap between british an americans...

There are clouds of intergalactic low-metallicity gas approaching the Milky Way. They interact and exchange momentum with the high-metallicity galactic halo gas: a source of pristine gas from outside the Galaxy! tinyurl.com/93j86z6j
