Photo of Stephan’s Quintet taken by Howard Trottier, Emeritus Professor of Physics at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. “It Ain’t Webb, But It is a Wonderful Life” — The astrophotographer who took this image said, “I’ve had Stephan’s Quintet on my bucket list since my first forays into astrophotography, more than a decade ago, but wouldn’t you know it, I finally got to it only after the release of the stunning image by the Webb Space Telescope, which selected this as one of its first targets! So one way to characterize my humble image (with thanks to my very clever spouse Loula for her inspired suggestion of this tongue-in-cheek title) is ... “It Ain’t Webb, But It is a Wonderful Life!” — ASTROBIN.

The rotation of the Moon around its axis. Have you ever seen the far side of the Moon? Although we only see one side of the Moon, when the Moon rotates around the Earth, it also rotates its own axis. Because of tidal locking, we always see one side of the moon. 🌒

Dark Matter is a mysterious material composed of particles that don’t absorb, reflect, or emit light. We assume it exists due to its gravitational effect. It makes up roughly 27% of the Universe & is thought to help hold everything together, sort of like a cosmic glue.
