Crash of the Titans (Video 20min)
By +Hubble Space Telescope
Astronomers have known for decades that our Milky Way Galaxy and the neighboring Andromeda Galaxy are approaching each other. What we haven't known is just how close the encounter will be. Recent Hubble measurements have been able to pin down the trajectory with a smashing conclusion: in about four billion years the two galaxies will crash together in a nearly head-on collision. Further, the spiral galaxies will have completely merged and transformed to create a single elliptical galaxy around six billion years in the future.

This is the podcast you are looking for. Thank the Force it's Friday!
Rebel Force Radio: 9.22.17
We have fresh info about THE LAST JEDI, specifically Porgs and their delectability, from DK’s new book “Star Wars Made Easy”. Mark Hamill saves the Disney Company the trouble by announcing the release date for the next trailer for EPISODE IX on Twitter…Then he takes it back! We dig deep to see if there is any truth behind Mark’s “joke”. Lucasfilm announces who will be their promotional partners for THE LAST JEDI and discuss the future for Disney’s plan to stream their properties independently, including STAR WARS. We speculate what that will mean financially for the company and how it will effect fans. Plus, listener voice mail, space horses, and we present a snack review for Pop Chips Star Wars Galaxy Puffs that goes horribly south.

HTC and Google announce a $1.1 billion agreement for the future of Pixel
HTC and Google have officially announced that the companies have reached a deal. Google will pay HTC $1.1 billion in cash in exchange for some of its employees and Google will have access to HTC’s intellectual property. So what does this mean for the future HTC and the Pixel lineup?
Certain HTC employees, many of which are currently working with Google to develop the Pixel phones, will join Google. In addition, Google will receive a non- exclusive license for HTC’s intellectual property. This means that Google will have access to HTC’s manufacturing patents and designs for its future Pixel devices.
HTC has been a longtime partner of Google and has created some of the most beautiful, premium devices on the market. We’re excited and can’t wait to welcome members of the HTC team who will be joining Google to fuel further innovation and future product development in consumer hardware. - Rick Osterlog, Senior VP of Hardware at Google
The transaction will help HTC to excel with its upcoming flagship smartphone (which is already being worked on), and HTC will continue to expand its VIVE VR platform as well as invest in IoT, AR, and AI.
In turn, this shows Google’s commitment to the future of the Pixel lineup, and the deal will help to strengthen and streamline the Google Pixel portfolio. The transaction also introduces Google to a new technology hub in HTC’s home country of Taiwan.
The transaction is still waiting to be approved by regulatory officials as per usual, and is expected to complete in early 2018.
This is a huge step for Google in solidifying its foundation of building its own hardware and a firm first step into 2018 for HTC.

Sylvia Falls Valley of the Waters, Blue Mountains NP
Sylvia Falls is part way down the Valley of the Waters (the first major fall after Empress). It is a noisy cascade that ends in a great fan. The track taking you alongside that fall is like a great winding ballroom staircase which has seen better days. The track seems to be slowly loosing its grip on the mountain side, and, unless repaired, access to these falls may disappear.
A HDR (a merge of three shots - one overexposed, one underexposed, and one balanced shots) from part way up the fall, avoiding the sky with the image toned for depth. Some say you should not use HDR on dynamic structures, but with a tripod and a little care, waterfall images can turn benefit from this treatment. Without HDR the rain forest can be overpowering with the detail of the forest becoming overwhelmed by vivid greens.
The top layers of the steps in the fall are naturally a vivid orange color, which can become very bright depending on the time of day and processing chosen. To further diminish the impact of the lush surrounds, i have desaturated the image 15%.

Enchanted forest
Fly agaric (Amanita muscaria)
Svartskog, Norway
This is the largest I’ve found this season and it measures 20 cm across, but can be even 30 cm.
If only this species knew how famous and iconic it is among humans!
Of all the fungi species this is the most famous of all – seen in movies, paintings and drawings of fairy tales and books – even in souvenir shops and some furniture and nick-nacks stores, but I think you won’t find it at IKEA.
The species has so many powerful characteristics, but the visual is the first impression and what an impact it has when you enter into a spruce forest where the floor and the roots are completely covered in soft dense moss. The light is dim and thus the bright colors of this mushroom brightens up the surrounding like a magic lantern.
It is truly magic that from the soil this giant appears, grows and shines, then disappears to perhaps not be seen at the same location for many years.
No wonder people throughout history have had a special relationship with this one and weaved it into their lives, be it drawing, painting and art.
I for one had to sit here with it for some time to just absorb the magic of the place, watching all the insects visiting it, the sounds of the birds and the rustling of the foliage high above.
And then it happened just as it did with my previous fly agaric encounter – a shrew foraged just a few meters away from me. So tiny and so energetic.
Enchanted forest indeed.
