"Galaxy over Canal Rocks"

This image was taken on 8th July 2018 spanning south-west-north along Canal Rocks, near Yallingup, Western Australia. Canal Rocks is a longitudinal series of granite just off the coast in the Indian Ocean. The moon at 43% has just risen over the relatively high ridge on which I am standing on to take this image, and lights up the foreground nicely but also lights up the sky in a faint blue that reduces the constrast a bit for the galaxy. The great Carina nebula is nearing the bottom of its arc on the very left of the image, then moving up the length of the galaxy is the Southern Cross constellations (quite faint this close to the horizon), Coal Sack dark nebula, Alpha and Beta Centauri, some fainter red nebulas including the Cats Paw nebula, just down from the core the Antares / Rho Ophicuhi region, the bright Lagoon nebula in the centre of the image (and close to centre to the core), the Omega and Eagle nebula, and the very bottom right you can just make out the North American nebula.

I used an Skywatcher StarAdventurer sky tracking mount to take this massively sized 52 panel mosaic. A Canon EOS6d (modified) was used through a Canon 50mm f/1.2 lens stopped down to f/3.2. All camera and lens settings were kept the same for all panels, and all shots were taken one immediately after the other. The tracking mount was used for the sky and turned off for the foreground panels. Stitching in PTGui, colour balance in Pixinsight, noise reduction, saturation and some brightness / contrast adjustment in Photoshop. Details below.

Enjoy, Will Vrbasso.

Bizarre 'Alien' Asteroid Discovered Orbiting the Wrong Way Near Jupiter

Late last year, our solar system received an unexpected visitor from interstellar space: The asteroid ‘Oumuamua that was discovered suddenly in October and then just as quickly disappeared, passing briefly through our solar system on the way to somewhere else. But now we have a better chance to study a visitor from beyond our solar system.

According to scientists from the Côte d'Azur Observatory and São Paulo State University, there’s at least one interstellar asteroid already here. They found an interstellar asteroid near the planet Jupiter, and unlike ‘Oumuamua, this asteroid is here to stay.

Asteroid 2015 BZ509 was discovered a few years ago by the Pan-STARRS sky survey, the same one that discovered ‘Oumuamua last year. This new asteroid, 2015 BZ509, is a pretty strange one because it orbits in retrograde—in the opposite direction as pretty much everything else in the solar system.

Double standards are a form of self-deceit (lying).
The GOP can't seem to grasp this concept:

The GOP is trying to claim a person's negative opinions make them incapable of impartial investigation.
(edit: See the video link in my first comment below this posting.)
They didn't have any such qualms about the people "investigating" Hillary (like Trey Gowdy who spent millions and came up with nothing)...

Investigation is concerned with facts.
Opinions don't change the facts.
What the GOP need is evidence that Strzok tampered with evidence or ignored facts.
They don't have any.

From the article linked below (read it for the comments which reveal the failure of this procedure to expose anything other than GOP incompetence.)

In another tweet, The Washington Post‘s Aaron Blake detailed House Republicans’ double standard in the Strzok hearings.

“The contrast here is pretty stark,” he tweeted. “GOP in one breath threatens Strzok with contempt if he doesn’t detail Russia investigation, which is ongoing. Then it says it won’t release transcript of Strzok’s initial testimony … because its investigation is ongoing.”

During the 2017 campaign in which Thomas ha this the best season averaging 28.9 points for the Celtics while leading them to the best record in the East (53-29), he expressed his utmost interests in signing a super mac contract worth around an estimated $150-$300 million. However during the 2017 season Thomas including in a massive blockbuster trade that sent him to Cleveland for Kyrie.

Trump has a pattern.
1) Insult everyone.
2) Make demands,
3) Claim to have achieved a victory, and then
4) Struts around demanding to be praised..

5) Move to next target and repeat..
(But he doesn't do this to dictators, only to the faces of allies.)

By the way, has anyone seen his "better cheaper replacement for Obamacare yet?

How about his plan to get Mexico to pay for his wall fantasy?

So. Much. "Winning".

(Trump said people would get sick of all the winning he does)
He's right, in his own inverted way..
I'm sick of what he imagines to be "winning".

From the article linked below.

...Trump went to a NATO summit, insulted our allies, then made the absurd demand not just that they increase defense spending — which they should — but that they raise it to 4 percent of G.D.P., much higher than the bloated military spending in his own budget. He then claimed, falsely, to have won major concessions, and graciously declared that it is “presently unnecessary” to consider quitting the alliance.

Was there anything our allies could have done that would have mollified him? The answer, surely, is no. For Trump, disrupting NATO doesn’t seem to be a means to an end; it’s an end in itself.

Does all of this sound familiar? It’s basically the same as the story of the escalating trade war. While Trump rants about other countries’ unfair trade practices — a complaint that has some validity for China, although virtually none for Canada or the European Union — he hasn’t made any coherent demands. That is, he has given no indication what any of the countries hit by his tariffs could do to satisfy him, leaving them with no option except retaliation.
....
It’s all of a piece. Whatever claims Trump makes about other countries’ misbehavior, whatever demands he makes on a particular day, they’re all in evident bad faith. Mr. Art of the Deal doesn’t want any deals. He just wants to tear things down.

The institutions Trump is trying to destroy were all created under U.S. leadership in the aftermath of World War II. Those were years of epic statesmanship — the years of the Berlin airlift and the Marshall Plan, in which America showed its true greatness. For having won the war, we chose not to behave like a conqueror, but instead to build the foundations of lasting peace.
