So I decided to clean the house while my family is at church. I thought it’d be a nice thing for them to come home to. I’ve been a bit distracted though, with System of a Down and pretending to be Serj Tankian.
To some it may look to some like a big space monster, but it is more big than monster. To others it may look like a grazing seahorse, but the dark object toward the image right is actually an inanimate pillar of smoky dust about 20 light years long. The curiously-shaped dust structure occurs in our neighboring Large Magellanic Cloud, in a star forming region very near the expansive Tarantula Nebula. The energetic nebula is creating a star cluster named NGC 2074, whose center is visible just off the top of the image in the direction of the neck of the seahorse. The above representative color image was taken last year by the Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 in honor of Hubble’s 100,000th trip around the Earth. As young stars in the cluster form, their light and winds will slowly erode the dust pillars away over the next million years.
This amazing set of furniture, designed by Stephen Reed, is an installation that provides interactive seating to your short break from a long day. Users can make words and messages with the lettered cushions, a new fun take on wordplay.
I can’t fucking wait until Warped Tourrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
