On this day in 2020, I stood under the dark skies of Dartmoor National Park looking up at the beautiful C/2020-F3, more commonly known as Comet Neowise. Having swung around the sun, it was heading back out into the solar system, to return in around 6,800 years! #Neowise #Astrophotography

800 million light-years away, in the Pegasus constellation, Hubble captured this image of a galaxy floating in space. Tendrils of star-forming gas dangle from the galaxy, seen edge-on. Astronomers gave it a nickname, but what do you see? go.nasa.gov/3M2ahKH

Hubble observed a curious linear feature that was first dismissed as an imaging artifact from the telescope’s cameras. But follow-up observations reveal it is a 200,000-light-year-long chain of young blue stars created in the wake of a runaway black hole: bit.ly/3JTk7Ma

First light of Venus with the Skywatcher 180 Maksutov. Native F15 using an ZWO ASI462. It was looking lovely in the eyepiece. Like looking at a faraway Moon without any craters or seas. #MoonHour™️Social #venus #Astrophotography

Today Chandra is studying a few objects in Hydra — the largest of the 88 modern constellations. Nearby in the sky is this pair of galaxies, called NGC 3314. Though they look like they're colliding from our perspective, they are actually separated by over 23 million light-years.

There are some incredible nebulae in our night skies and I’ve been trying to find some hidden ones that aren’t easily visible to the naked eye. This one is ‘Barnard’s Loop’ that surrounds Orion. Check out the short video I made with some of my photos: youtu.be/SrFTPZR2lBc

I’ve been photographing amazing nebulae in our night skies - this is the Heart Nebula and Soul Nebula in the constellation of Cassiopeia, with the beautiful ‘Double Cluster’ in nearby Perseus. I made a short video on these nebulae – check this one out: youtu.be/uSH7cTTr-SI

This was a lovely object to photograph - it's the Rosette Nebula. Three times the width of the full moon in our sky but our eyes aren’t quite sensitive enough to see it. I made a short video if you want to see a bit more about this patch of the night sky: youtu.be/3nhS7QrmEJw

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Alyn Wallace. Alyn's exceptional images and insightful tutorials have influenced a whole generation of astrophotographers. We're sure his work will continue to inspire. R.I.P Alyn. Image Credit: Alyn Wallace

Previously considered the most hazardous of all known asteroids, any chance that 99942 Apophis will impact Earth in the next 100 years has since been ruled out. But its flyby of Earth in April 2029 will be one of the rarest space events of our lives. 10 facts 🧵👇
