I know quite a few astrophotographers! During online meetings of the Warren Astronomical Society, members show astrophotos they’ve recently captured and processed; even their “bad ones” are awe-inspiring! Here’s a beautiful pic by Adrian Bradley:

A couple of these astrophotographers regularly livestream their telescope sessions for the public to view: Doug Bock & Dr. Brian Ottum.

All three of these astrophotographers that I just shamelessly plugged helped with the Astronomy at the Beach event last September.

Venus appears very low above the southeastern horizon before sunrise – appearing lower each morning.

Jupiter and Saturn are now lost in the glare of the Sun. Mercury is visible in the southwestern sky at dusk – appearing slightly higher each evening.

Mars appears high in the southern sky after sunset; the Moon appears near Mars on the evening of Wed. Jan. 20th.

The Moon appears near the star Aldebaran in the constellation Taurus after sunset on Sat. Jan. 23rd.

The Moon is a waxing crescent – visible toward the southwest in early evening. This is a great week for observing the Moon with a telescope or binoculars!

The first-quarter Moon occurs on Wed. Jan. 20th – visible high in the southern sky in early evening.

After Jan. 20th the Moon will be a waxing gibbous – visible to the southeast in early evening, and up for most of the night.

If you click the image on that page, you will download a high-rez TIFF image annotated with the names of prominent features – helpful for logging your lunar observations!

NASA conducted a hot fire of its SLS core stage on Jan. 16. Following an engine shut down a little more than one minute into the hot fire, teams are assessing the data to determine what caused the early shutdown and will determine next steps. MORE >> https://t.co/dSE3uQdSe9

The Sun has a spot! Spaceweather.com says “AR 2797 has a simple magnetic field that poses no threat for strong solar flares.”

Both the northern and southern coronal holes have opened up, and both have large tendrils stretching up towards the equator. Lots of coronal activity associated with AR 2797 is rotating into view.

Moderate prominences activity over the last couple days; the region of coronal activity rotating into view shows a lot of activity.

Sun News

The U.S. Postal Service to Issue NASA Sun Science Forever Stamps! I am just over-the-top thrilled at this! Time to update my Sun lecture… again!

The United States Post office announced on Jan. 15, 2021, that they would be releasing a series of stamps highlighting images of the Sun captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. Credits: NASA/SDO/USPS

NASA’s images of the Sun’s dynamic and ­­­dazzling beauty have captivated the attention of millions. In 2021, the US Postal Service is showcasing the Sun’s many faces with a series of Sun Science forever stamps that show images of solar activity captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO.

“I have been a stamp collector all my life and I can’t wait to see NASA science highlighted in this way,” said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD) in Washington.  “I feel that the natural world around us is as beautiful as art, and it’s inspiring to be able to share the import and excitement of studying the Sun with people around the country.”

The 20-stamp set features ten images that celebrate the science behind NASA’s ongoing exploration of our nearest star. The images display common events on the Sun, such as solar flares, sunspots and coronal loops. SDO has kept a constant eye on the Sun for over a decade. Outfitted with equipment to capture images of the Sun in multiple wavelengths of visible, ultraviolet, and extreme ultraviolet light, SDO has gathered hundreds of millions of images during its tenure to help scientists learn about how our star works and how its constantly churning magnetic fields create the solar activity we see.

That solar activity can drive space weather closer to Earth that can interfere with technology and radio communications in space. In addition to this immediate relevancy to our high-tech daily lives, the study of the Sun and its influence on the planets and space surrounding it – a field of research known as heliophysics – holds profound implications for the understanding of our solar system and the thousands of solar systems that have been discovered beyond our own. As our closest star, the Sun is the only nearby star that humans are able to study in great detail, making it a vital source of data. – NASA

The SOHO spacecraft is the most prolific comet-hunter in space! The mission has discovered over 4,000 comets to date, many of which were found by citizen scientists. The mission recently celebrated a quarter-century in space!

Really rare and impressive showing of two bright, "tailed" comets in the @MissionSoho LASCO field of view! ?

Einstein Observatory: Beautiful Universe

1E 0102.2-7219 is a supernova remnant located ~202,000 light-years away in the Small Magellanic Cloud. The object was discovered in 1981 by NASA’s Einstein Observatory. Light from the supernova blast would have arrived at Earth ~1,700 years ago – during the decline of the Roman Empire. The supernova’s light would have only been visible from Earth’s southern hemisphere; no records of this supernova event are known to exist.

This Hubble Space Telescope portrait reveals the gaseous remains of an exploded massive star that erupted approximately 1,700 years ago. The stellar corpse, a supernova remnant named 1E 0102.2-7219, met its demise in the Small Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of our Milky Way. Credits: NASA, ESA, and J. Banovetz and D. Milisavljevic (Purdue University)
