Beautiful image of this very famous nebula! Thanks to the combination of data of all wavelengths, this time we can enjoy the surrounding nebular ionized gas cloud with the internal swirl, in the same image. #astronomy #astrophysics #neutronstar

Arcsecond.io aims to be a platform for professional astronomers and observatories. As such, it is sometimes necessary to spend some significant amount of effort on what may looks like details. I am happy to report that Arcsecond now correctly support the Daylight Saving Times for all dates and locations. Read all the details in our dedicated blog post: https://lnkd.in/d_Jpp7Rb #daylightsavingtime #dst #night #nightexplorer #date #times #astronomy #observations #sky #nightsky

Some astronomers' folklore! Here are two quick stories among the many I have about astronomical observations in La Silla Observatory, and elsewhere. I think I will continue this series on control rooms. :-) #ntt #lasilla #astronomy #arcsecond #observations #starrynight #nightsky https://lnkd.in/dFAJfCdi

#CERN has enabled Europe to lead the world in high-energy physics, accomplishing what no single country could sustain alone. Its flagship project, the Large Hadron Collider (#LHC), has cemented Europe’s leadership in particle physics. – “The future of European competitiveness”, a report by Mario Draghi, published by the European Commission on 9 September 2024.   The report looks into the future challenges faced by the industry and companies in the European Union. It highlights the importance of research and technology infrastructures as drivers of innovation, and suggests, among other things, investing into CERN’s future: “Refinancing CERN and ensuring its continued global leadership in frontier research should be regarded as a top EU priority, given the objective of maintaining European prominence in this critical area of fundamental research, which is expected to generate significant business spillovers in the coming years.” Find out more and download the full report: https://lnkd.in/eAk84kkG
