How recently have we understood the Universe?
The Universe has been around for 13.8 billion years.
But it's really only over the most recent millennia, centuries, and decades that humanity has understood it at all.

The Subaru Loyale has gone to space, so that's neat I suppose.

The Ice Giants Aren’t What We Thought
The California Nebula
================
Stretching across nearly 100 light-years, this glowing river of hydrogen is known as the California Nebula. Located about 1,000–1,500 light-years away in the constellation Perseus, it’s far too faint to see with the naked eye — but long-exposure astrophotography reveals its true form.
The nebula shines almost entirely in H-alpha light, energized by intense radiation from the nearby hot star Xi Persei. What looks like a soft, golden cloud is actually a turbulent region of ionized gas, dust, and ongoing star formation.
Five times wider than the full Moon and yet nearly invisible visually, NGC 1499 is a perfect reminder of how much of the universe hides just beyond human perception.
Scope: Askar 103APO

Mount: SkyWatcher AZ-EQ5-GT
Guiding: SkyWatcher Evoguide 50ED with ZWO ASI 224MC

It's not a very good photo. But not bad considering the subject is 446 light years away: "A ‘Tatooine’ Planet Directly Imaged" 🌌 🔭 🪐 👍 😁 #Space #Cosmos #Astronomy #CentauriDreams #Tatooine https://www.centauri-dreams.org/2025/12/11/a-tatooine-planet-directly-imaged/
NathanielJaye: "In both our inner & our outer actions, we should hold one question: How will this help an individual unfold their #uniqueness in balance with the #earth and the #cosmos? There are many answers, but this is the question. Because if not this, then what are we doing?" #OrderOfTheSacredEarth bit.ly/45gj8kE

We live inside a cosmic bubble
"O Cosmos é tudo o que existe, tudo o que existiu e tudo o que algum dia existirá. Nossas mais leves contemplações do Cosmos nos perturbam — sentimos um formigamento na espinha, uma voz nos falha, uma sensação de vertigem, como se de uma lembrança distante, de estarmos caindo de uma grande altura. Sabemos que estamos nos aproximando do maior dos mistérios."
Este texto é simplesmente lindo. A série #Cosmos de #CarlSagan é maravilhosa. Assim como a música de abertura do #Vangelis.
La solución a nuestro vacío existencial es reconocer, de manera honesta y humilde, el inconmensurable camino que le tomó al #cosmos crearlo todo y la hazaña biológica que nos permite contemplarlo. Realizado ese noble acto, todo está repleto. No cabrá en nosotros ni un gramo mas de agradecimiento y gratitud por todo lo que nos rodea.

This isn’t a flower. 🌹
It’s the Rosette Nebula — a vast stellar nursery nearly 130 light-years wide, sculpted by intense radiation from young stars.
The deep reds come from glowing hydrogen gas, energized by ultraviolet light, while dark dust lanes trace regions where future stars may still form. The light captured here began its journey around 5,000 years ago, long before it reached this frame.
A moment of cosmic creation and erosion—where science, time, and art intersect.
