Turn Me On Norah Jones Like a flower Waiting to bloom Like a lightbulb In a dark room I'm just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on Like the desert waiting for the rain Like a school kid waiting for the spring I'm just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on My poor heart It's been so dark Since you've been gone After all you're the one who turns me off You're the only one who can turn me back on My hi-fi is waiting for a new tune My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes I'm just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHff55AeEAQ]YouTube - Norah Jones - Turn Me On[/ame]

NGC 1569: Starburst in a Dwarf Irregular Galaxy Credit: NASA, ESA, Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA); Acknowledgement: A. Aloisi (STScI/ESA) et al. [attach=full]1833[/attach] Explanation: Grand spiral galaxies often seem to get all the glory, flaunting their young, bright, blue star clusters in beautiful, symmetric spiral arms. But small, irregular galaxies form stars too. In fact, as pictured here, dwarf galaxy NGC 1569 is apparently undergoing a burst of star forming activity, thought to have begun over 25 million years ago. The resulting turbulent environment is fed by supernova explosions as the cosmic detonations spew out material and trigger further star formation. Two massive star clusters - youthful counterparts to globular star clusters in our own spiral Milky Way galaxy - are seen left of center in the gorgeous Hubble Space Telescope image. The above picture spans about 8,000 light-years across NGC 1569. A mere 11 million light-years distant, this relatively close starburst galaxy offers astronomers an excellent opportunity to study stellar populations in rapidly evolving galaxies. NGC 1569 lies in the long-necked constellation Camelopardalis.

Those Sweet Words Norah Jones What did you say I know I saw you singing My ears won't stop ringing Long enough to hear Those sweet words What did you say End of the day The hour hand has spun Before the night is done I just have to hear Those sweet words Spoken like a melody All your love Is a lost balloon Rising up through the afternoon 'Til it could fit on the head of a pin Come on in Did you have a hard time sleeping 'Cause a heavy moon was keeping me awake And all I know is I'm just glad to see you again See my love Like a lost balloon Rising up through the afternoon And then you appear What did you say I know you were singing My ears won't stop ringing Long enough to hear Those sweet words And your simple melody I just have to hear Your sweet words Spoken like a melody I just wanna hear Those sweet words [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYYK9mLjrls&feature=related]YouTube - Norah Jones - Those Sweet Words[/ame]

Thackeray's Globules Credit: Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA), NASA [attach=full]1832[/attach] Explanation: Rich star fields and glowing hydrogen gas silhouette dense, opaque clouds of interstellar gas and dust in this Hubble Space Telescope close-up of IC 2944, a bright star forming region in Centaurus, 5,900 light-years away. The largest of these dark globules, first spotted by South African astronomer A. D. Thackeray in 1950, is likely two separate but overlapping clouds, each more than one light-year wide. Combined the clouds contain material equivalent to about 15 times the mass of the Sun, but will they actually collapse to form massive stars? Along with other data, the sharp Hubble images indicate that Thackeray's globules are fractured and churning as a result of intense ultraviolet radiation from young, hot stars already energizing and heating the bright emission nebula. These and similar dark globules known to be associated with other star forming regions may ultimately be dissipated by their hostile environment -- like cosmic lumps of butter in a hot frying pan.

We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand - and melting like a snowflake. ~ Marie B. Ray

Wish you were here Incubus I dig my toes into the sand The ocean looks like A thousand diamonds strewn Across a blue blanket I lean against the wind Pretend I am weightless And in this moment I am happy happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here I lay my head onto the sand The sky resembles A backlit canopy With holes punched in it I'm counting UFOs I signal them with my lighter And in this moment I am happy happy I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here The world's a rollercoaster And I am not strapped in Maybe I should hold with care My hands are busy in the air Saying I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here I wish you were here [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRsqAr4S39s]YouTube - Incubus - Wish You Were Here [ Director's cut!! ][/ame]

The Elephant's Trunk in IC 1396 Credit & Copyright: Gordon Haynes [attach=full]1831[/attach] Explanation: (xxxedit and linkxxx) Like an illustration in a galactic Just So Story, the Elephant's Trunk Nebula winds through the emission nebula and young star cluster complex IC 1396, in the high and far off constellation of Cepheus. Of course, this cosmic elephant's trunk is over 20 light-years long. This false-color composite was recorded through narrow band filters that transmit the light from hydrogen (in green), sulfur (in red), and oxygen (in blue) atoms in the region. The resulting image highlights the bright swept-back ridges that outline pockets of cool interstellar dust and gas. Such embedded, dark, tendril-shaped clouds contain the raw material for star formation and hide protostars within the obscuring cosmic dust. Nearly 3,000 light-years distant, the relatively faint IC 1396 complex covers a large region on the sky, spanning over 5 degrees. This dramatic close-up covers a 2 degree wide field, about the size of 4 Full Moons.

Fox Fur, a Unicorn, and a Christmas Tree Credit & Copyright: R Jay Gabany [attach=full]1830[/attach] Explanation: Clouds of glowing hydrogen gas fill this colorful skyscape in the faint but fanciful constellation Monoceros, the Unicorn. A star forming region cataloged as NGC 2264, the complex jumble of cosmic gas and dust is about 2,700 light-years distant and mixes reddish emission nebulae excited by energetic light from newborn stars with dark interstellar dust clouds. Where the otherwise obscuring dust clouds lie close to the hot, young stars they also reflect starlight, forming blue reflection nebulae. The wide mosaic spans about 3/4 degree or nearly 1.5 full moons, covering 40 light-years at the distance of NGC 2264. Its cast of cosmic characters includes the the Fox Fur Nebula, whose convoluted pelt lies at the upper left, bright variable star S Mon immersed in the blue-tinted haze just below the Fox Fur, and the Cone Nebula at the far right. Of course, the stars of NGC 2264 are also known as the Christmas Tree star cluster. The triangular tree shape traced by the stars appears sideways here, with its apex at the Cone Nebula and its broader base centered near S Mon.

Earthrise Credit: Apollo 8, NASA [attach=full]1820[/attach] Explanation: Forty years ago, in December of 1968, the Apollo 8 crew flew from the Earth to the Moon and back again. Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders were launched atop a Saturn V rocket on December 21, circled the Moon ten times in their command module, and returned to Earth on December 27. The Apollo 8 mission's impressive list of firsts includes: the first humans to journey to the Earth's Moon, the first to fly using the Saturn V rocket, and the first to photograph the Earth from deep space. As the Apollo 8 command module rounded the farside of the Moon, the crew could look toward the lunar horizon and see the Earth appear to rise, due to their spacecraft's orbital motion. Their famous picture of a distant blue Earth above the Moon's limb was a marvelous gift to the world.

Dandelion Chris Cornell Settle down now and sit with me Let me tell you how this all came to be A yellow flower with your pedals to the air And flying on paper wings that brought you here Summer rolls on in the lazy hours An ether dream way Of hummingbirds and clouds Midnight swims in the cool back waves And you in my arms as it rolls away Little dandelion Let your heart keep time Now the clouds are gone All of your tomorrows shine Oh oh All of your tomorrows shine Oh oh All of your tomorrows shine Born of restless night the moon as a pearl Playing games down inside your soft warm world Hear my voice I know that you can You're the fire in my eyes The sun as a man Seasons come along and seasons go And what they'll leave behind I don't pretend to know I'm afraid that all I have missed Will loom very large when the darkness lifts Little dandelion Let your heart keep time Now the clouds are gone All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine I will ride by your side Wherever you go I won't run I won't hide Just letting you know Little dandelion Let your heart keep time Now the clouds are gone All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine All of your tomorrows shine [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2ju48bl6Go]YouTube - Dandelion by Audioslave (cover by Ashley)[/ame] Meh.. no good vids.. here's a cover by some girl named Ashley.

Collinder 399: The Coat Hanger Credit & Copyright: Processing - Noel Carboni, Imaging - Greg Parker, New Forest Observatory [attach=full]1819[/attach] Explanation: Is this coat hanger a star cluster or an asterism? This cosmic hang-up has been debated over much of last century, as astronomers wondered whether this binocular-visible object is really a physically associated open cluster or a chance projection. Chance star projections are known as asterisms, an example of which is the popular Big Dipper. Recent precise measurements from different vantage points in the Earth's orbit around the Sun have uncovered discrepant angular shifts indicating that the Coat Hanger is better described as an asterism. Known more formally as Collinder 399, this bright stellar grouping is wider than the full moon and lies in the constellation of the Fox (Vulpecula). On the far right of the image is the open cluster of stars NGC 6802.

Labtayt Sulci on Saturn's Enceladus Credit: Cassini Imaging Team, SSI, JPL, ESA, NASA [attach=full]1818[/attach] Explanation: Do some surface features on Enceladus roll like a conveyor belt? A leading interpretation of recent images taken of Saturn's most explosive moon indicate that they do. This form of asymmetric tectonic activity, very unusual on Earth, likely holds clues to the internal structure of Enceladus, which may contain subsurface seas where life might be able to develop. Pictured above is a composite of 28 images taken by the robotic Cassini spacecraft in October just after swooping by the ice-spewing orb. Inspection of these images show clear tectonic displacements where large portions of the surface all appear to move all in one direction. Near the top of the image appears one of the most prominent tectonic divides: Labtayt Sulci, a canyon about one kilometer deep.
