I'm Dave. I'm a fan of BBC Sherlock to a surprising degree for me. So you will find a lot of that here. Also Dr. Who, Star Trek occasionally, and a whole lot of other stuff I just think is cool. I'm an electronics designer/engineering consultant, and I make industrial automation and controls, when I'm not contemplating Sherlockian things. :-)& I love my followers and I hope the things I post bring you a smile or open up for you a new interest in something in our universe!

The most detailed picture yet of a star nursery birthing new suns
The image [click here for hi-res] reveals the stages of star birth, from embryonic stars a few thousand years old still wrapped in dark cocoons of dust and gas to behemoths that die young in supernova explosions. 30 Doradus is a star-forming factory, churning out stars at a furious pace over millions of years. The Hubble image shows star clusters of various ages, from about 2 million to about 25 million years old.

  • A French Corporation: You have 2 cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.
  • Japanese Corporation: You have 2 cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create a clever cow cartoon image called Cowkimon and market them Worldwide.
  • An Italian Corporation: You have 2 cows, but you don't know where they are. You break for lunch.
  • A Swiss Corporation: You have 5000 cows. None of which belong to you. You charge others for storing them.

Holograms approach Star Trek’s degree of realism, believability
The technique allows for the creation of full color, three-dimensional objects via surface plasmons, the excited, collective oscillations of free electrons within a metal.

crookedindifference:

The Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038 & 4039)

This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image of the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038 & 4039) is the sharpest yet of this merging pair of galaxies. During the course of the collision, billions of stars will be formed. The brightest and most compact of these star birth regions are called super star clusters.
The two spiral galaxies started to interact a few hundred million years ago, making the Antennae galaxies one of the nearest and youngest examples of a pair of colliding galaxies. Nearly half of the faint objects in the Antennae image are young clusters containing tens of thousands of stars. The orange blobs to the left and right of image center are the two cores of the original galaxies and consist mainly of old stars criss-crossed by filaments of dust, which appear brown in the image. The two galaxies are dotted with brilliant blue star-forming regions surrounded by glowing hydrogen gas, appearing in the image in pink.
