๐๐ฎ๐๐ฌ๐๐๐ฒ, 8 ๐๐๐ โข The fact that it's the last monthly spread of this year seems so unreal..I did this constellation kind of theme because outer space have a special place in my heart and this is my birth month so why not! also let's say goodbye to this unfortunate year and wish that the new moon of 2021 will bring new lights!โจ

This is the Orion Nebula! โจโจโจ
Recent observations by the Hubble Space Telescope reveal the presence of protoplanetary disks, or proplyds, in the Orion Nebula. Newborn stars form in this beautiful nebula when clumps of hydrogen gas condense and become hot enough for stellar fusion! ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ

This is Ceres! ๐ ๐ ๐
Ceres is the only dwarf planet in our inner solar system and the largest object within the Asteroid Belt. Water vapor is being released from the dwarf planet, resultingย in Ceres losing 6kg of its mass per second through steam! ๐๐๐

This is the Rosette Nebula! ๐น๐น๐น
This is definitely the best image I have taken of this giant molecular cloud! This nebula is a star forming region with hot, blue newborn stars at its center that is shaping this region to form a beautiful flower-like shape. As seen from Earth, this nebula appears almost 5 times larger than the full Moon! โจโจโจ

Hello everyone!
Thank you so much for all the support for my astrophotography blog! I just wanted to let you guys know that I have started a project and a blog about light pollution.
As an avid astrophotographer, light pollution has affected me in a variety of ways - most notably by messing up my pictures ๐
I attached the Project DeLight link to this post. Iโm also gathering data about outdoor light features across the world:ย https://forms.gle/UER8BtStqWktf2kn6ย - the form will only take about 1-2 minutes and Iโve already posted about the first batch of data in the DeLight blog.ย
Thank you everyone!
Michelle Park
