The sky handed me a reference photo tonight. That purple. Those lines. My brushes are already restless. ⚡🎨

Took this photo on the night of 14 April 2026.
Jupiter can be seen in the top right-hand corner. More interesting is the ‘tail’. It was visible for about 15 minutes.
Is it a comet or a man-made object?

Westport Observatory 2d ago

The clouds called dibs on the sky tonight, 4/15... Our observatory will be socked in, so the stars are taking a well-deserved night off! No worries — the universe will still be there next week. Come find us at our next WAS Weekly Wednesday Star Party!

The Pacman Nebula
===============

NGC 281, the Pacman Nebula - a return to a familiar target in Cassiopeia. This time with a new setup and considerably more integration time, captured in the Hubble palette (HSO). The result is a view dominated by the warm red glow of ionized hydrogen and sulfur, punctuated by the brighter, subtly blue-grey core where the young star cluster IC 1590 drives the entire nebula's energy.

What fascinates me most about this object are the dark Bok globules - dense dust structures silhouetted against the glowing gas, slowly being eroded by the intense radiation from IC 1590. They look like they are being consumed, and in a sense they are. But deep inside their cold, shielded cores, gravity may be quietly winning - collapsing gas into new stars, born from the same clouds being stripped away around them.

Adamas Nemesis 3d ago

She was born a century too soon to be the Artemis Generation...but I bet she would have loved nothing better, as would countless generations before who looked up at the sky and asked a "Question to the Stars".
