Black_Hole-BB13U1YE.jpgBlack Hole in the "Heart" of M 87212 visiteThe first image of a black hole, previously thought nigh impossible to capture, was named the top scientific breakthrough of 2019 by the journal "Science".

Black holes have gravitational pulls so powerful that, past thresholds known as their event horizons, nothing can escape, not even light. Supermassive black holes millions to billions of times the mass of our sun are thought to lurk in the hearts of virtually every large galaxy, influencing the fate of every star caught in their gravitational thrall.

Using Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, German physicist Karl Schwarzschild was the first to lay the foundation of the science describing black holes. In the decades since then, scientists have detected numerous signs of black holes, such as the effects their gravity have on their surroundings and the ripples in the fabric of space and time known as gravitational waves emitted when they collide.

NGC-1333~2.jpgNGC 1333143 visite...Ho sceso, dandoti il braccio, almeno un milione di scale
E, ora che non ci sei pi, il vuoto ad ogni gradino.
Anche cos stato breve, il nostro lungo viaggio.
Il mio dura tuttora, n pi mi occorrono
Le coincidenze, le prenotazioni,
Le trappole, gli scorni di chi crede
Che la Realt sia quella che si vede.

Ho sceso milioni di scale, dandoti il braccio
Non gi perch con quattr'occhi forse si vede di pi.
Con Te le ho scese perch sapevo che di noi due
Le sole, vere pupille, sebbene tanto offuscate,
Erano le Tue...

Gravitational_Lensing.gifGravitational Lensing129 visiteLensing by a Black Hole. This is an animated simulation of a phenomenon known as "Gravitational Lensing" and as caused by a Schwarzschild-type Black Hole moving in front of a background Galaxy. A secondary image of the Galaxy can be seen within the so-called "Einstein's Ring" of the Black Hole, on the opposite direction of the one of the Galaxy. The secondary image grows (still remaining within the Einstein's Ring) as the primary image approaches the Black Hole. The surface brightness of the two images remain constant, but their angular size varies, hence producing an amplification of the Galaxy Luminosity as seen from a distant observer. The maximum amplification occurs when the background Galaxy (or, like in the present case, a bright part of it) is exactly behind the Black Hole.9 commentiMareKromiumNov 30, 2012

NGC-3314.jpgNGC 3314 - Interacting (Overlapping) Spiral Galaxies212 visite"Je regarde autour de moi, j'observe, je lis, j'écoute.

Et je ressens une profonde nausée face à cette humanité flasque qui m'entoure. Des hommes et des femmes vides, comme des outres vidées jusqu'à la dernière goutte.

Je vois leurs aberrations, leurs difformités et leurs monstruosités ; je sens leur arrogance et leur ignorance sur ma peau, comme une brûlure.

Peut-être devrais-je en parler, mais je n'en ai pas envie.

Pourquoi ?

C'est sans doute par orgueil, et peut-être aussi un peu par incapacité."

(Traduzione)

"...Mi guardo attorno, osservo, leggo, ascolto.
E provo una nausea profonda, per quella bolsa Umanità che mi circonda. Uomini e donne vuoti, come otri scolati anche dell'ultima goccia.

Vedo le loro aberrazioni, e le loro deformità e mostruosità; sento la loro arroganza e sento la loro ignoranza, sulla mia pelle, come fuoco.

Forse dovrei parlarne, ma non mi va.
Perché?
Dev'essere per orgoglio, e, forse, anche un po' perché non ne sono capace..."

The_Big_Dipper.jpgUrsa Major123 visiteWhen I talk to the trees
O'great trees who have learned to speak slowly
I know that they believe that they have an answer
Then I walk in the city where I cannot hear it...

When I talk to the city
I have already learned three answers
Before I call the question
And slowly, I wish myself among trees
But cannot hear myself wishing...

When I talk to the people
Who are the trees that grow in the city
They reply with a fond kindness, slowly
But there is no answer
For experience to be made by mistake...

Upon this key, time will slide,
Beyond the lock, you lose your mind.
And as our door becomes open,
A rush of sound is found inside
Creating dreams that pass you by...

You may live through your life a long long time..
But you will never know from where it came,
Yet all you've seen is what you've wanted to,
You`re walking forward as you look, behind,
Still watching those old memories fade and die...

This door is heavy, and is deeply stained,
With wasted tears, that try to fight in vain,
You may be sitting, feeling quite secure,
But listen carefully - and this key is yours -
For we can lead you far beyond that door...

There are dangers hidden, trust in that language
And it is precisely this conception that which must not be changed
The epitome of our language is patterns containment of thought and sound...

I die to fight!!
I die to fight!!
I die to fight!!

Upon this key, time will slide,
Beyond each lock, you lose your mind.
And as our door becomes open,
A rush of sound is found inside -
Creating dreams that pass you by...

Bent Cold Sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I cannot longer wait.
Stealing the crown that stood me up,
I'm laying the table with dusty plates.

Bent Cold Sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but i cannot longer wait.
Playing the god to fix your gaze,
I'm holding you firm on another day.

Bent Cold Sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I cannot longer wait....

Inside_a_Red_Giant.jpgInside a "Red Giant"212 visiteCaption NASA:"A journey to the center of a Red Giant Star is very firmly in the realm of science fiction.

But the Science of Asteroseismology can explore the conditions there. The technique is to time the small variations in a star's brightness measured by the planet hunting Kepler Spacecraft. Regular variations indicate Stellar Oscillations, analogous to sound waves, that compress and decompress the gas causing brightness changes.

As recently discovered in Red Giant Stars, some of the Oscillations detected have periods that would cause them to penetrate to the Stellar Core. In that extreme environment they actually become more intense and can return to the Surface. These Echoes from the Red Giant's Core are illustrated in this frame from a computer generated animation. Remarkably, the periods measured for the Oscillations can even indicate how and where the Red Giant Star's energy production, by Hydrogen or Helium fusion, is taking place".

Transits-Kepler-NASA.jpgSic Transit(s) Gloria Kepleri167 visiteCaption NASA:"Using the prolific planet hunting Kepler Spacecraft, astronomers have discovered 1235 Candidate Planets orbiting other stars since the Kepler Mission's search for Earth-like worlds began in 2009.
To find them, Kepler monitors a rich Starfield to identify Planetary Transits by the slight dimming of starlight caused by a Planet crossing the face of its Parent Star. In this remarkable illustration, all of Kepler's Planet Candidates are shown in transit with their parent stars ordered by size from top left to bottom right. Simulated stellar disks and the silhouettes of transiting planets are all shown at the same relative scale, with saturated star colors.
Of course, some stars show more than one planet in transit, but you may have to examine the picture at High Resolution to spot them all. For reference, the Sun is shown at the same scale, by itself below the top row on the right.
In silhouette against the Sun's disk, both Jupiter and Earth are in transit".

IC-405-The_Flaming_Star_Nebula-Geissinger1700.jpgAE Aurigae and the "Flaming Star Nebula"25009 visiteOggi, 16 Marzo 2011, alle ore 20:15 CET, si spento - dopo una lunga malattia - mio Padre, il Dr Ugo Fienga, ex-Magistrato presso la Corte d'Appello di Milano, Consigliere di Cassazione e Grande Ufficiale della Repubblica.

Pap, che fu Servitore dello Stato per oltre quarant'anni, era Uomo di poche parole - al pari del sottoscritto - e quindi, per Onorarlo a modo, io non star qui a raccontare storie ed aneddoti (anche se ce ne sarebbero parecchi...).

"Non chiacchiere, ma fatti. Le chiacchiere, figlio mio, sono buoni tutti a farle. I fatti invece, come imparerai, no"

Questo mi ha detto ed insegnato Pap, in svariate circostanze. Io sono d'accordo con lui e quindi quello che far andare avanti sulla strada che Lui mi ha indicato: la strada dei fatti. Delle azioni. Del lavoro (magari ingrato, ma sempre e comunque svolto al meglio e con la pi grande Onest).

Lunar Explorer Italia nata, fondamentalmente, grazie al Suo aiuto.

E Lunar Explorer Italia, nel Suo Nome e nel Suo Ricordo, continuer ad andare avanti.


Grazie agli Amici, ai Partner ed ai Colleghi per la presenza e la comprensione.
