About

When we glance at our wrists to find out the time, we don't even think about the effort and ingenuity that has made it a possibility. From the earliest beginnings with stone circles and sundials, through water dripping and lowering the level in a marked off bowl, to graduated candles that (hopefully!) burned evenly and finally pendulum-driven trickery. And then came the drive from the shipping navigators to be able to accurately tell the time at sea, pendulums being no good in a pitching ship! The huge prize money put up for the first mechanism to solve this drove the invention of the spring-driven clockwork mechanisms still used even in today's world of quartz crystals and electrickery!

tagged with: hrwaulb, midswneb, swan nebula, m17, hydrogen gas clouds, star forming activity, young hot stars, newly born stars, outer space pictures, universe exploration, star galaxies

Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series Amazingly this could almost be some underwater scene with strange creatures swimming in the aquamarine waters. It's actually the centre of the Swan Nebula, or M17, a hotbed of newly born stars wrapped in colourful blankets of glowing gas and cradled in an enormous cold, dark hydrogen cloud. This stunning picture was taken by the newly installed Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) aboard the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.
The nebula resides 5500 light-years away in the constellation Sagittarius. Like its famous cousin in Orion, the Swan Nebula is illuminated by ultraviolet radiation from young, massive stars - each about six times hotter and 30 times more massive than our Sun.
