Heart I love looking at the sky

Hi, Steve,

Here it the picture of a reflection nebula:

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap140306.html



Quote:
Explanation:
NGC 1333 is seen in visible light as a reflection nebula, dominated by bluish hues characteristic of starlight reflected by dust.
A mere 1,000 light-years distant toward the heroic constellation Perseus, it lies at the edge of a large, star-forming molecular cloud.

This striking close-up view spans about two full moons on the sky or just over 15 light-years at the estimated distance of NGC 1333. It shows details of the dusty region along with hints of contrasting red emission from Herbig-Haro objects, jets and shocked glowing gas emanating from recently formed stars.
Tonight the street lights on my street were out.
I had a good view of the stars.

I heard Neil deGrasse Tyson talking about it on the radio. I love him.

He has teamed up with Seth McFarlane to do the show.
Seth is producing it.

For some reason I was not able to find the show on my DVR.
Thanks for reminding me to look for it.

I like Neil deGrasse Tyson. He's so enthusiastic about astronomy. He's very likeable,and interesting.

I wish that I could see his new program on the National Geographic channel. I don't have that channel. BF

If it's on Fox on Sunday night,I can see it. Neil deGrasse Tyson makes everything interesting,and fun. He's very intelligent,and knows allot of things about Space,the mathematics,and theories that go along with Space,and time. BF

Steve,

"The Cosmos" will be running on several of Fox affiliates at different times for the next seven weeks or so -- that might be why the show's times are a little confusing.

I checked on my DVR and in local tvguide.com
http://www.tvguide.com/Listings/

For my local Fox, it is at 8:00 pm Saturday Part I (a rerun of the show from last week)-- as far as I know.

My local Fox will show it at 8:00 pm Sunday Part 2.


I hope that I am clear.
If I am wrong, I deeply apologize.
Mari
