More accurate distances between the most common type of «planetary nebulae» and the Earth can be estimated simply with three sets of data: firstly, the size of the object on the sky taken from the latest high resolution surveys; secondly, an accurate measurement of how bright the object is in the red hydrogen - alpha emission line; and thirdly, an estimate of the dimming toward the nebula caused by so called interstellar - reddening.

Guyon adds that the system will help astronomers to study the skies more efficiently, by bringing large objects, such as nearby galaxies, into focus all at once, and by allowing more distant objects to be studied in a single snapshot.

Sky watchers have catalogued more than 16,000 objects larger than about 10 centimeters, most of them in low Earth orbit, at altitudes of 200 to 2,000 kilometers.

For instance, look at the recent use of the Cosmic Evolution Survey, using the Hubble Space Telescope to study gravitational lensings [in which the gravitational pull of galaxies and dark matter bends the light from more distant objects] in an area of the sky nine times the apparent surface area of the full moon.

Viewed from a planet at Earth's orbital distance around Alpha Centauri A, stellar companion B would provide more light than the full Moon does on Earth as its brightest night sky object, but the additional light at a distance greater than Saturn's orbital distance in the Solar System would not be significant for the growth of Earth - type life.

Lead author Dr. Danail Obreschkow, from The University of Western Australia (UWA) node of the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR), said that ten billion years ago the Universe was full of clumpy galaxies, but these developed into more regular objects as they evolved; the majority of stars in the sky today, including our five billion - year - old Sun, were probably born inside these clumpy galaxies.

The bigger the telescope's aperture, the more light is collected and therefore the dimmer and more distant the objects in the night sky that can be imaged.

Now that Kepler is exploring other patches of sky in its current mission, called K2, it can no longer follow up on Tabby's Star, but future telescopes may help unveil more secrets of this mysterious object.

In addition to taking 1,100 years to complete its orbit around the sun, the object is blisteringly chilly, which makes sense seeing as it's located in the Kuiper Belt where our sun is no more than a bright pinprick in the skIn addition to taking 1,100 years to complete its orbit around the sun, the object is blisteringly chilly, which makes sense seeing as it's located in the Kuiper Belt where our sun is no more than a bright pinprick in the skin the Kuiper Belt where our sun is no more than a bright pinprick in the skin the sky.

This cloud is the bright Milky Way patch slightly above the center of our image; among many other Deep Sky objects (clusters and nebulae) one can find 10 more Messier objects in this image.

The NVSS is expected to produce a catalog of more than two million radio - emitting objects in the sky, and it is the first sky survey sensitive to linearly polarized emission from radio sources beyond our own Milky Way galaxy.

The company says Photolemur recognizes objects, faces, trees, sky, foliage and more; understands the type of photo (landscape, portrait, macro) and applies the appropriate fix based on its knowledge of processing hundreds of thousands of photos in the past.
