As I fly by your nebula,
I write space poetry
and send books to earth.

This is a near-earth-website. Lovingly maintained by the _{cometpustój-}shuttle crew <3

Together we feed the void with poetry, images, sounds, minor updates, and alternative flight routes through space. Join (e.g. mastodon) the Fediverse and leave a message at: s.basspistol.org/@comet

A merging galaxy pair cavort in this image captured by the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope. This pair of galaxies, known to astronomers as II ZW 96, is roughly 500 million light-years from Earth and lies in the constellation Delphinus, close to the celestial equator. As well as the wild swirl of the merging galaxies, a menagerie of background galaxies are dotted throughout the image.The two galaxies are in the process of merging and as a result have a chaotic, disturbed shape. The bright cores of the two galaxies are connected by bright tendrils of star-forming regions, and the spiral arms of the lower galaxy have been twisted out of shape by the gravitational perturbation of the galaxy merger. It is these star-forming regions that made II ZW 96 such a tempting target for Webb.

see you around!
