The Dragons of Ara sent on September 27, 2025 (7:32) by Pineta1984. 37 comments, 1860 views.  [editors pick] [retina]

A 4000 anni luce da noi, in una zona nella costellazione di Ara (emisfero Australe), si trova una nebulosa a emissione, piena di stelle in formazione e polveri che sembrano dar vita alla figura di due dragoni cosmici con il loro uovo (più in basso). L'esplosione di una supernova, avvenuta milioni di anni fa, ha scolpito queste forme nell'universo, dove i draghi paiono combattere in un duello sospeso nel tempo. Questa nebulosa è in realtà una vasta nube di idrogeno e polveri, continuamente illuminata dall'energia delle giovani stelle che nascono al suo interno. I dragoni che noi vediamo sono in verità intrecci di gas e polveri, strutture che assorbono e diffondono la luce delle stelle vicine. Qui la scala del tempo si ribalta: stelle di pochi milioni di anni sono considerate appena nate paragonate al nostro Sole con i suoi 4,6 miliardi di anni. Ogni filamento e ogni nube che vediamo è il riflesso di equilibri delicatissimi: gravità, radiazione, turbolenze. Ciò che appare come arte cosmica è in realtà la cronaca silenziosa della nascita e della morte delle stelle. Lì dove la materia costruisce mondi futuri, la nostra immaginazione disegna draghi che custodiscono il loro mistero. Questa fotografia, una panoramica ottenuta da due pannelli fatti tra Maggio e Luglio 2025 con 68,5 ore complessive di integrazione e con il nostro PlaneWave DeltaRho 350 montato su una iOptron CEM 120 usando come camera la ZWO ASI 6200MM. Saluti, Alex e Luca

Hi all, thank you so much for the EP and also for the comments. It is always a pleasure and an honor to exchange opinions on these photographs. I'm glad they liked it, the Dragons of Ara have always been a passion for a long time and finally a noteworthy photo has come out that can render this deep-sky subject in all its magnificence. The only possibility was to make a panel to have the whole nebula (or at least most of it) in the frame!
See you soon and again a big thank you to everyone!!

Excellent image, like all those in the gallery.
Crazy acquisition times and posts with aesthetic as well as scientific value.
Considering that the telescope used is not a "portable" object, it would be interesting to have some information on how this installation was born on the other side of the world. If I'm not mistaken, it's located in SpringBrook, Australia. I guess it's controlled remotely, but it's really yours and so you can use it whenever you want or is it from the facility and you rent the time? If it is yours, how do you manage the commissioning plan?
You deserve the EP if only for having solved all these "operational" problems before the recovery itself.

A fantastic picture of contemporary events at the beginning of the Bronze Age, with Mesopotamia and Egypt as centers of civilization, characterized by city-states and kingdoms. Agriculture had already spread widely in Eurasia, and writing, invented in the previous millennium, allowed the recording of events and the management of more complex societies : a fantastic image of "very delicate balances of gravity, radiation, turbulence, silent chronicle of the birth and death of stars, matter that builds future worlds" : many applauses for the work of creating this image and for the excellent and very happy clarity of exposition in the attached note: you are really good Alex and Luca, many congratulations.

And we, immersed in the dandruff of nothingness, often venerate the great, the powerful of the moment, petty masters of nothing.
thanks Marino
