 Beyond Bird Watching: World’s 5 Largest Telescopes
Beyond Bird Watching: World’s 5 Largest Telescopes
Perhaps you own a pair of bird watching binoculars to study all types of winged friends and get a better understanding of how they function everyday. Or maybe you have a telescope set up in your bedroom or on your back porch to get up close and personal with stars in galaxies far away. While these tools provide amazing views to what’s happening around us, imagine having the power of some of the world’s largest telescopes to probe even deeper. picked by kakana 5 months ago

Cosmic Bird? Triple Cosmic Collision Of Galaxies Stuns Astronomers
Using ESO's Very Large Telescope, an international team of astronomers has discovered a stunning rare case of a triple merger of galaxies. This system, which astronomers have dubbed 'The Bird' - albeit it also bears resemblance with a cosmic Tinker Bell - is composed of two massive spiral galaxies and a third irregular galaxy. picked by AutumnLotus 2 years ago

Largest ever survey of very distant galaxy clusters completed
An international team of researchers led by a UC Riverside astronomer has completed the largest ever survey designed to find very distant clusters of galaxies. Named the Spitzer Adaptation of the Red-sequence Cluster Survey, "SpARCS" detects galaxy clusters using deep ground-based optical observations from the CTIO 4m and CFHT 3.6m telescopes, combined with Spitzer Space Telescope infrar... read full post picked by AutumnLotus 5 months ago

Two Telescopes Combine To Probe Young 'Family' Of Stars
A spectacular new image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope uncovers a small group of young stellar "siblings" in the southern portion of the Serpens cloud – located approximately 848 light-years away from Earth. Scientists suspect that this discovery will lead them to more clues about how these cosmic families, which contain hundreds of gravitationally bound stars, form and intera... read full post picked by AutumnLotus 2 years ago

Telescopes poised to spot air-breathing aliens
Signs of life on planets beyond our own solar system may soon be in our sights. Experiments and calculations presented at an astrobiology meeting last week reveal how the coming generation of space telescopes will for the first time be capable of detecting "biosignatures" in the light from planets orbiting other stars. picked by AutumnLotus 7 months ago
