[robertsona]

literally if you're ever feeling shitty (like i just had a really tough chinese exam UGH) just visit this thread so you can look at Cool Space Pix i mean i know everyone goes through a phase where theyre like WOW...SPACE O_O SPACE NERD maybe youre annoyed by that but give it up to them: space is pretty ****ing Veritably Cool anyways this better be kept open you chit-chat modders or else p.s. sticky please



^ eagle nebula pillars. i always thought it was sort of annoying that the top right corner is all blacked out but i think they stitched it together from like 32 different pictures so it's all good



^ ngc 2244



^ uranus has such a nice color



^ orion nebula

SPACE IS KOOL (if these Space Pix strike you as Entry Level Space Pix you should totally post some of your own)

One thing that's always interested me is stars. Large stars, in particular. Here's a neat video of a size comparison between space things.

Re: Space is kool thread

I'm really tempted to make a topic about astronomy that will include an updated *upcoming events* page, several links to interesting facts as they come along, and my own personal photos of celestial objects now. Should I go ahead? I will do so if enough people are interested, as it will be a time consuming process.

The space is always a wonderful thing to me, because whenever I look out into the nighttime skies, I see a time that occurred a million years ago, before any of us were born. The stars were events of a time much better than now. And it makes one think about just what the future holds.

Re: Space is kool thread

I say it'd be nice for this thread to be stickied. Just to be kept up with the astronomical world. It's all so fascinating.

Re: Space is kool thread

Page one is way too early to decide whether anything should be stickied. If the thread gets enough attention, then sticky it. Not that this kind of topic is sticky worthy anyways.

if you have a decent enough computer, I'd recommend toying around with this simulator, it can be very aesthetically pleasing

Kepler-22B

The search for Earth-like planets circling other stars is heating up, but the latest discovery is not too hot at all. It’s not too cold, either. Instead, the temperature on the newly announced planet Kepler-22b could be just right for life — about 72 degrees, a perfect spring day on Earth.
So far the Kepler telescope has spotted 2,326 candidate planets outside our solar system with 139 of them potentially habitable ones. Even though the confirmed Kepler-22b is a bit big, it is still smaller than most of the other candidates. It is closest to Earth in size, temperature and star than either of the two previously announced planets in the zone.

*Global climate avg of 71.6 degrees <- PERFECT
*2.4 times bigger than the earth
*600 million lightyears away
*would take 7 MILLION years to get there
