The Leo Triplet

3D visualization tool for the Leo Triplet! 🌌
After posting the last photo, I was struck by curiosity and have been entertaining myself with Python, with the help of ChatGPT and DeepSeek.
Rotate, zoom, explore! 🔭

The Leo triplet captured and fast processed by a Seestar S50. The three galaxies are gravitationally linked: 1- M66 (NGC 3627, lower left): The most visibly distorted, showing a displaced core and high star formation rates due to the interaction. 2- NGC 3628 (The Hamburger Galaxy, upper): Displays a "boxy" bulge and a massive tidal tail of gas and stars being pulled away. 3- M65 (NGC 3623, lower right): While appearing more "normal," it still shows a slightly warped disk from past gravitational disturbances
Identification provided by astrometry.net
The Leo Triplet is a cosmic dance 35M light-years away. Gravitational tug-of-war between M65, M66, and NGC 3628 has warped their shapes.
🔹 M66: Asymmetric arms & starbursts.
🔹 NGC 3628: A 300k light-year tidal tail.
🔹 M65: The calmest of the trio.

🛟Estem posant a punt la boia de Somorrostro del projecte EOA-BCN amb @ajuntamentbcn.bsky.social
🌊Un cop configurat l’ordinador que gestionarà les dades dels sensors i afegit un sistema AIS, la boia monitoritzarà salinitat, Tº, corrents i variables meteorològiques a 1 milla de la platja.
This is always funny to see: time of abstract submission to the Liège Colloquium. I am not the only one submitting my abstracts really close to the deadline 😂.
In any case, we have extended a few days, so you still have time to push that Y-axis up! New deadline 16 February 2026 #LiegeOcean26 🌊🧪
Bueno, en esos casos uno se levanta y se va a desayunar, a tomar una cervecita o un cafe segun sea la hora del dia... soportar tochos de charlas ya no es para mi...

M33. Image captured using a Seestar S50
Some astronomical objects detected in the image using the plate solver provided by astrometry.net
The Triangulum Galaxy (M33) lies about 3 million light-years away, seen as it was when early humans in Ethiopia began using stone tools.
2 hours 40 minutes of images processed in Seestar S50 using their AI enhancement, with final edits in Google Photos on mobile.

View of spiral galaxy NGC-891 (also known as C23) using Seestar S50. The filamentary patterns perpendicular to the galactic plane (barely discernible in this image) are thought to be ejected dust from supernova explosions. 772 x 30-second images stacked using a Naztronomy script. Processed in GraXpert and Siril, then post-processed using Google Photos.
#NGC-891 (Caldwell 23) is an unbarred spiral galaxy located about 32 million light-years away in the constellation Andromeda. It is considered to be very similar to our own Milky Way galaxy and would appear similar when viewed edge-on.
See ALT text for processing details.

This shows how sea surface temperature has evolved in the northern part of the Adriatic Sea over the period 6–8 January 2026. A cold water mouth is forming.
Mediterranean Sea surface temperature on January 8, 2026. The cold water mouth can be clearly seen in the north of the Adriatic Sea.
Wind speed and direction on January 7, 2026 from https://windy.app/
A cold water surface mouth in the northern Adriatic Sea for the past three days has developed (data.marine.copernicus.eu/product/SST_... CNR-ISMAR L4 product). I couldn't find cloud-free satellite images to verify this, but it is consistent with the strong winds observed in the region.🌊🧪
Clear skies in 2026!

I probably won't have a chance to capture more images this year, so here is my 2025 #Astrophotography Highlights video, set to MVHS Madrigals Choir music. It features planetary and galaxy images taken with my new Meade 8" SCT. I still have a lot to learn, enjoy! youtu.be/a48QNu2IC7w?...
It's not the best that can be achieved with the Seestar S50, but there have been too many weeks without clear skies. Summarized in Spanish "me puede el ansia"

Hace cosa de un año jubilé al mio con 12 años. Lo tenia actualizado siempre a la ultima versión par de Fedora usándolo casi a diario. Windows es un devorador de recursos, tendría que gravarse con un impuesto especial a aquellas empresas que lo usen (como el impuesto de emisiones de CO2)

🌊 Last week @justino.info from ICATMAR took part in the Marine Heat Waves from Space: from detection to prediction workshop at the @esa.int Science Hub.
An inspiring exchange on improving the monitoring and prediction of #MarineHeatWaves to better understand and protect ocean health.
Happy to participate in the creation of this White Paper summarizing key concepts and future guidelines for #MHW-related activities.

Yes, life is what happens between consecutive CAT scans.
No, no se ve asi... es un fake... no se ve mas que lo que se ve en un desierto o en el mar lejos de fuentes luminicas. La atmosfera impacta poco... Eso es una composiciin de imagenes de larga exposicion... solo hay que ver las fotografias de las misiones Apolo desde la luna para hacerse una idea
