Cat's Eye Nebula
To me, this particular image looks like two dancing jellyfish. Their movements cause wave disturbance, hence the concentric circles rippling around them.
V838 Monocerotis
A gorgeous red star that was for a moment one of the largest known stars.
How’s the air up there?
Urban Air is an experimental bamboo forest high above a Los Angeles freeway.
Surrounded by concrete, bad drivers, and worse advertising, the LA commute feels like the ultimate environmental disconnect. Urban Air seeks to subvert that daily alienation — one billboard at a time. The idea is pretty simple: Take disused billboards, remove the commercial facade, and install a living, breathing cloud forest of bamboo.
Time to reclaim the asphalt jungle and score one for the trees — it’s our Project of the Day.
Backed this. Everyone could use more green.

The Angel Nebula
The bipolar star-forming region, called Sharpless 2-106, looks like a soaring, celestial snow angel. The outstretched “wings” of the nebula record the contrasting imprint of heat and motion against the backdrop of a colder medium. Twin lobes of super-hot gas, glowing blue in this image, stretch outward from the central star. This hot gas creates the “wings” of our angel. A ring of dust and gas orbiting the star acts like a belt, cinching the expanding nebula into an “hourglass” shape.

Apparently this is what happens in the fins of a squid when listening to Cypress Hill’s ‘Insane in the Brain’.
Super cool.
