The USS Constellation in Baltimore, MD's Inner Harbor. Just having a bit of fun with this photo - not the most perfect composition but we were on a water taxi and were coming in quickly. It was a bit of a gloomy moment - the rain was threatening but it held off and then the skies cleared. Processed this hdr to bring out some color and lumenescence (too tired to spell that correctly :)

The Universe - Alien Galaxies
Galaxy Formation and Evolution Galaxy formation is hypothesized to occur, from structure formation theories, as a result of tiny quantum fluctuations in the aftermath after the Big Bang. The simplest model for this that is general agreement with observed phenomena is the Cold Dark Matter cosmology; that is to say that clustering and merging is how galaxies gain in mass, and can also determine their shape and structure. Formation of the first galaxies After the Big

What happens to the space shuttle rocket and boosters?
by State Library and Archives of Florida
Question by Sherlock2006: What happens to the space shuttle rocket and boosters?
That rocket that the space shuttle is strapped to when it lifts off - what happens to that thing once the shuttle's in flight? I know the side booster things fall off first, and later the whole rocket detaches. But where do they land? In the water, I'm guessing, but if the space shuttle is way up in outer space by the time the rocket parts fall away, how can they be sure

What's the difference between astronomy and astrology?
by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center
What's the difference between astronomy and astrology?
Although astronomy and astrology are historically related and many individuals were interested in both, there is today no connection between the two. Hence two different USENET newsgroups exist: sci.astro (for the former) and alt.astrology (for the latter). DO NOT CONFUSE THEM.
Astronomy is based on the laws of physics (and therefore mathematics) and aims at describing what is happening to

There is a big interest in science today and the lack thereof in our youth; yet with a little interest by adults in the science of astronomy and a relatively inexpensive child telescope you could show the universe in a whole new way.

What is the meaning of "naked eye" astronomical observation?
Question by GaryB: What is the meaning of "naked eye" astronomical observation?
A friend of mine travels to an observatory to look through their telescope and calls it "naked eye" observation. I expressed my belief that such observation is done lying on one's back in a meadow, not with a telescope. He says that "naked eye" just means without a camera. He's the astronomer but I still think I'm right.
Best answer:
Answer by tekwatcherNaked eye = unaided viewing
