This picture caught my eye because the colors in the sky, the neautiful landscape, and the quality of the picture. These constellations range from Sagittarius, Scorpious, and Pegasus. In this image you can see the milky way band. This band can be seen anywhere on a clear night on a wonderful Eaarth night. The large rock formatino show in the picture is known as Castildetierra. This rock formatin is located in Spain in Bardenas Reales.
I observed from the location of Sarasota, FL. I found Hercules, Capricorn, Andromeda, Cepheus, Draco, and Ursa Minor. It was difficult to observe throughout the week because the weather did not permit, and also the fact that i had finals this week did not allow me to star gaze for very long. :(
I was observing from Sarasota, Florida between the hours of 7-9 PM. I saw Mars shining bright on Monday night. I also noticed comet ISON as well. It resembled a meteor shower with a bright glow. I also noticed the Summer Triangle high up in the sky even though it is December. Vega appeared to the brightest star out of three. The second brightest was Deneb and then Alberio followed. On Wednesday, I saw a beautiful waxing crescent. I also saw a video of Jupiter's moon slowly disappearing into Jupiter's shadow. Thursday I saw another crescent moon.
In Spain, the sun was setting as a giant cloud appeared out of nowhere. It came straight to the Veleta peak. This cap cloud was formed from air forces around the mountain peak. The gravity and pressure in the environment also plays a major role in the reason behind this. This is a quite unusual thing to happen and it causes the air to move horizontally, which causes the other surrounding clouds to become flat. As you can see in the picture, there are vertical waves that cause another layer to be on top of the clouds.
This picture is called the Fairy of the Eagle Nebula. This picture shows the dust sculptures slowly evaporating into the thin air of space.This picture shows alot of character and figures. This picture shows figures of mythiological beasts coming out within the nebula. This picture is also explained as a large alien fairy that is rougly 10 light years tall. It also releases radiation that is hotter than your average fire. The larger Eagle Nebula, also known as M16, is a large shell of gas slowly absorbing the dust from the thin air. In fact, this picture was reassigned colors that were released in 2005.
