This is the Orion Nebula! 🤩🤩🤩
It’s the closest star forming region to Earth and even visible without a telescope. In this image alone, there are almost 3000 stars! ✨✨✨
Some people think the Orion Nebula resembles a turkey - its body is the wide circular part and its head is the small circle off of the nebula. Can you see it? I hope you enjoy this stunning image for Thanksgiving! 🦃🦃🦃

Unknown Orbit🪐💫 A painting for my first solo exhibition ’Out of this World’ at Gallery Nucleus in November! I hope you like it, I really enjoyed painting this💕✨
Slooh just got a massive update so there are more quests - which means more collages of astrophotos!
Here is a collection of some of my best nebulae photos: the Lagoon Nebula, Rho Ophiuchi, Horsehead Nebula, and Dumbbell Nebula! 🎇💫🎊🎆✨
This is the Orion Nebula! ✨✨✨
Recent observations by the Hubble Space Telescope reveal the presence of protoplanetary disks, or proplyds, in the Orion Nebula. Newborn stars form in this beautiful nebula when clumps of hydrogen gas condense and become hot enough for stellar fusion! 💥💥💥

This is the Whale Galaxy! 🐳🐳🐳
This galaxy’s strange shape comes from interactions with a smaller dwarf galaxy seen above it. This has resulted in high numbers of supernovae from rapid star formation blow wind and dust out of the galaxy in a “superwind”! ✨✨✨

This is the Skull Nebula! 💀💀💀
The glow of this eerie nebula is perfect for Halloween! This planetary nebula has a binary star system with a third star orbiting it. The beautiful colors of this nebula come from the outer layers of a Sun-like star that died in an explosion! 👻👻👻

This is another photo of the Jupiter Saturn Conjunction! 🪐🪐🪐
The two planets are getting closer each day! I love this picture because you can clearly see Jupiter’s 4 largest moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto) and a nice view of Saturn. This event is very rare - Jupiter and Saturn are the closest since the year 1623! ✨✨✨
