The Universe is a black & white movie without any pause

All of you must be knowing about the beauty of the universe, how beautiful it looks, have you people gone to space and seen the universe? We only see it in images and this is the truth, right? Not actually, the universe does not look like this from space, it does not look like this, then what is the universe like? And why does it look messy in images? You will get the answers to all these questions today.

NASA and other space agencies release many space images and in them space looks like this (Image 1) and it should be exactly like this only then it appears like this in the photo, the universe does not look like this at all, and no objects of the universe (galaxy, star, nebula etc.) have any color of their own, then how do the images look so messed up? Actually telescopes capture infrared rays and they are given color grading through their intensity, high intensity is blue and low is red, and after some such processing those images has become something like this (following picture), so are all these agencies cheating us? No, if the image is black & white then you will not like to see it at all and maybe you are not even that interested in it, and that is why all agencies release color graded images for public release.

But space is shown to be very beautiful and peaceful! Movies are for your entertainment and not a science class, so that is why space is shown to be corporeal and beautiful in movies so that your interest remains. So is the view of space shown in Passengers movie not correct? Yes it is an animation, and in fact the view of space shown in all the movies is not correct.

How stars are looking bright?

There is no color, form or sound of any object in the space because that medium is not available for travelling there, so all the capturing that we do comes in black & white only, you might have this question in your mind that why do stars appear shining?, so the more the intensity of the object will be the more visible to us, like we see the sun which is very close to us and that is why it is visible, similarly the stars have their own light, the brighter the star will be, the brighter its light will be and that is why it appears shining, and this thing is applicable to other objects as well.

How Galaxies are looks?

Galaxy is so bright because of lots of stars and its glowing center but it doesn't mean that it looks like this colorful. Same is the principle with galaxy, it doesn't look so beautiful, even galaxies are not visible, you will not see any shape of galaxy in real life, because we can't see gases through telescope, we can only see bright things in real form like stars and galaxy center, rest everything is the magic of software, so whenever you see Andromeda in image then remember that it doesn't look like this as you can see the difference of andromeda galaxy.

"The beauty isn't means the looks everytime, sometimes it means the connection to the UNIVERSE"

Messier 34: A Gem in the Perseus Constellation

In the vast canvas of the night sky, amidst the celestial wonders, lies Messier 34 (M34), an open star cluster also known by its New General Catalogue (NGC) designation, NGC 1039. Nestled within the boundaries of the constellation Perseus, M34 beckons astronomers and stargazers alike with its captivating beauty and scientific intrigue. Discovery and Historical Significance: Discovered by the famed French astronomer Charles Messier on August 25, 1764, M34 was cataloged as the 34th entry in Messier's renowned list of non-cometary objects. Initially described as a "cluster of small stars," Messier 34 holds a special place in astronomical history as one of the first deep-sky objects to be cataloged and studied systematically. Compactness: Messier 34 is a relatively compact open star cluster, making it a visually appealing target for amateur astronomers. Its stars are densely packed together, creating a beautiful celestial sight. Youthful Age: While many open star clusters ten...

Messier 106 : Our member of galaxies partner

Messier 106 : Our member of galaxies The universe is a vast expanse filled with wonders beyond our imagination. Among these wonders are galaxies, vast collections of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter held together by gravity. One such galaxy that captivates astronomers and stargazers alike is Messier 106, a stunning spiral galaxy located in the constellation Canes Venatici. Unveiling Messier 106: Discovered by the French astronomer Pierre Méchain in 1781, Messier 106, also known as M106 or NGC 4258, is a member of the relatively nearby Virgo Supercluster, which contains our own Milky Way galaxy. It lies approximately 22 to 25 million light-years away from Earth, making it a relatively close neighbor in astronomical terms. Messier 106 is classified as a Seyfert II galaxy, which means it has an active nucleus that emits strong radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum. This activity is believed to be fueled by a supermassive black hole at its center, which is devouring surrounding ma...

Methuselah : The Oldest Star in the Universe

Methuselah : The Oldest Star in the Universe Introduction: In the vast expanse of the cosmos, stars hold a fascination that transcends time and space. Among them, Methuselah Star stands out as a celestial anomaly, captivating astronomers and stargazers alike. Known as the oldest star in the universe, Methuselah Star offers a glimpse into the distant past of our cosmos and challenges our understanding of stellar evolution. In this blog post, we delve into the fascinating story of Methuselah Star, exploring its origins, characteristics, and the insights it provides about the universe. Discovery and Naming: Methuselah Star, officially designated as HD 140283, was discovered in 1912 by the American astronomer Henry Norris Russell. Located in the constellation Libra, Methuselah Star initially gained attention due to its high proper motion, indicating its rapid movement across the sky relative to other stars. However, it was its estimated age that truly captured the imagination of astronomer...
