Those pictures of a supernova from May of 2023? Turns out they’re maybe from a very weird kind of supernova, that’s been theorized, but not observed (until now?). Continue reading
Three Strikes and a Couple Hits
I try to find a few new nebulae to add to my collection, and while I struck out, I get a couple good shots of some old friends. Continue reading
