This stunning visualisation of Cassiopeia A, the result of an explosion approximately 330 years ago, uses X-ray data from Chandra, infrared data from Spitzer and pre-existing optical data from NOAO's 4-m telescope at Kitt Peak and the Michigan-Dartmouth-MIT 2.4-m telescope. The neutron star left over from the stellar blast is an artist's illustration (Courtesy NASA/CXC/D Berry; Model: NASA/CXC/MIT/T Delaney et al.)

  • good work here

  • @159aym Nope sry...I'm racist (I'm not talkin 'bout black ppl). And I admit it.

    I have to fight for my own beliefs because religion is like seek and destroy.

    It's like kill or be killed. Eliminate or be eliminated. And yeah...Science > Religion.

    Because science always work. Religion can't feed the poor. But science and rational thinking could. Unfortunatly there aren't too many atheists, agnostics or non believers or w/e. Religion is like: You might go to hell!!

    I'm like: Fuck no....

  • @andorei14 Learn to respect other people's religion(s)!

  • @TehGIGAgamer Haha. I tell people around me that I'm an atheist just because most of them don't know the meaning of "agnostic".

    I am more involved into cosmology...I'd like to be an astrophysicist.

    Also I don't realy think religion is right, and it's not so moral to believe in a god. Doing bad things makes you go to hell. I noticed that most of people do good things just cause they're scared not to go in hell. So...What's so moral in this? Doing good things because you're afraid of something...

  • @andorei14 lolol true story :P personally i got to tell you i was christian myself, but i don't really feel like believing or anything like that anymore... its so vague >.>

  • @LlansleyNinja141 science and religion will always be rivals that's why some random people spazz out about it lol

  • oooooooo, colorrrssss

  • Supernovae are fantastic phenomena pleasing to the eyes and mind... Please keep religion out of it. :@

  • To be honest, I dont believe in an all knowing God but I also dont respect all of the ignorant atheists telling theists to pray sarcastically. Most theoretical physicists don't believe in an all knowing God, but do believe that matter came from somewhere. (ie. a form of God).

  • All y'all theists hands off your keyboard, cuz that's technology...a sign of evolution....

    If ya want a computer or a cellular....pray for it haha...god might create one out of shit....
