True image of a false kiva.....



Is there any place in the world you could see a sight like this? Yes! This digital mosaic shows the night sky as seen from False Kiva in Canyonlands National Park, eastern Utah, USA. Diving into the Earth far in the distance is part of the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy. Much closer, the planet Jupiter is visible as the bright point just to band's left. Closer still are the park's picturesque buttes and mesas lit by a crescent moon. In the foreground is the cave housing a stone circle of unknown origin named False Kiva. The cave itself was briefly lit by flashlight during the exposure. Astrophotographer Wally Pacholka reports that getting to the cave was no easy trek. Also, mountain lions were a concern while waiting alone in the dark to record the mosaic.

"Signals of a strange Universe..." March 29. 2009....This is a supernova that occured in 1994

The Seagull Nebula.....March 27th, 2009...

A small asteroid 2008 TC3 fell to Earth at dawn on October 7, 2008, tracking through the skies over the Nubian Desert in northern Sudan. That event was remarkable because it was the first time an asteroid was detected in space before crashing into planet Earth's atmosphere.



AND...here she is.....I called her "Sudan..."

Love the False Kiva one........................

Thank you Chonsi...that is sooooo interesting. I often wonder how lucky I am to be able to look at these gorgeous pictures of our universe... I feel blessed.

We should hitch a ride on the shuttle and go look at space from way up there. It would be so cool.
