Today I want to show you a tour of our universe.
In everyday life, few people pay attention for this beauty that is around us, you only need to lift up your head. Our universe is a unique and very beautiful place.
All the photos were shots by me.
For some description, the English text has been taken from the NASA site. Because, My English isn't that great and I think they know about space more than anyone on the planet. I have provided a Russian translation for my shortened version of the NASA text.
So here we go: Close to us is a famous Dumbbell Nebula
Dumbbell Nebula, or M27 - This is a very good example, of how star has become a multi-colored cloud of gas. It was discovered in 1764 by the famous Frenchman Charles Messier in 1250 and is located in the light-years away from our planet. Dumbbell Nebula came in space only about 3 or 4 thousand years ago. By the way, I wanna say, that nebula is the last stage of life of a star. Star come into this phase in the last years of his life. It is clearly visible ,as it is located not too far from earth. It has a very beautiful color, which can be enjoyed forever
Туманность Гантель или М27 – Это очень хороший пример того, как звезда превратилась в разноцветное облако газа. Она была открыта в 1764 году знаменитым французом Шарлье Мессье и находится на данный момент в 1250 световых годах от нашей планеты. Туманность Гантель появилась в космическом пространстве всего около 3 или 4 тысячелетий назад. Стоит отметить, что туманность является последней стадией жизни звезды. Звезда вступают в эту фазу в последние годы своей жизни. Очень хорошо заметна, так как расположена не так далеко от земли. Имеет очень красивые цвета, на которые можно любоваться вечность.

Moving on. Far away from us is a wonderful galaxy called M101
M 101 - large spiral galaxy, which is placed on a 25 million light years from earth. The huge size and incredible beauty makes it an excellent target for observation. It is about 70% larger than our Milky Way galaxy. The discovery was made by Pierre Mechain March 27, 1781. We see a huge spiral arms, which extend from the core of the galaxy. Blue color that we see around the coilsfrom the words scientists, this warm gas around neutron stars and black holes.
М 101 - Большая спиральная галактика , которая располагается в 25 миллионов световых лет от земли.Огромный размер и невероятная красота делает ее отличным объектом для наблюдения. Она примерно на 70% больше нашей галактики Млечный путь. . Открытие было сделано Пьером Мешеном 27 марта 1781 года.Мы видим огромные спиральные ветви , которые отходят от сердцевины галактики.Голубой цвет, который мы видим вокруг спиралей, со слов ученых, является теплым газом окруженными нейтроными звездами и черными дырами

Keep going. The unique combination of just 3 galaxies. They called - Leo Triplet
Leo Triplet - a collection of three spectacular looking for observations of galaxies. Even a small telescope will show the power of amazing images. This cluster of galaxies are located 30 million light years from our planet, and their name: M65, M66 and NGC 3628. Winter and spring seasons will be optimal for observation, but it would be better to leave the city.All of these galaxies are spiral - like our own Milky Way.
Триплет Льва – это собрание из трех впечатляюще выглядящих для наблюдателя галактик. Даже телескоп небольшой мощности способен выдать потрясающее изображение. Данное скопление галактик располагается на расстоянии 30 миллионов световых лет от нашей планеты, и именуются галактики следующим образом: M65 , M66 и NGC 3628. Зима и весна станут оптимальными временами года для наблюдения, но лучше будет уехать за город. Все перечисленные галактики относятся к спиральным – таким как Млечный Путь.

Next we see the Huge and stunning galaxy called Andromeda
Andromeda Galaxy (M31 or NGC 224) - this is the closest galaxy to our Milky Way. Andromeda is located two and a half million light-years away from our planet. It accommodates 1 trillion stars, which is 5 times more than in our galaxy. At the moment not found proof of the existence of extraterrestrial life, but among such a large number of stars probably find that star, close to where is a planet suitable for life. If you believe the scientists, Andromeda and the Milky Way collide with each other in 3 - 5 billion years
Галактика Андромеда ( M 31 или NGC 224) – это ближайшая галактика к нашему Млечному пути. Андромеда находится на расстоянии двух с половиной миллиона световых лет от нашей планеты. В ней расположено около 1 триллиона звезд, что в 5 раз больше чем в нашей галактике. На данный момент не найдены доказательства существования внеземной жизни, однако среди такого огромного числа звезд наверняка найдется та звезда, рядом с которой будет планета, пригодная для жизни. Если верить ученым, Андромеда и Млечный путь столкнуться примерно через 3 - 5 миллиардов лет.

One more very beautiful galaxy, which is located in the constellation Andromeda.
Galaxy NGC 891 is located in the constellation of Andromeda, and is located on our earth at a distance of about 30 million light-years. About this galaxy is known not so much, only that the dark stripe that you see in the middle of the galaxy, a cosmic dust
Галактика NGC 891 расположенна в созвездии Андромеда, и находится от нашей земли на расстояние около 30 миллионов световых лет. Об этой Галактике известно не так много , только что темная полоса которую вы видите по середине галактике, это космическая пыль

It is one and the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. This is Veil Nebula
Witch's Broom Nebula (NGC 6960) is located in the direction of the constellation Cygnus, about 1,400 light-years away from our earth. It received its name, because of the peculiar shape, like a broom. In the center of the nebula, we can see the huge and bright star 52 Cygni, but it has nothing to do with our nebula. A variety of colors and original form, of attracting a many great amateur astronomers.
Туманность Ведьмина метла ( NGC 6960 ) расположена в направлении к созвездию Лебедя около 1400 световых лет от нашей земли. Свое название она получила из за своеобразной формы, похожей на метлу. По центру туманности мы можем видеть огромную и яркую звезду Лебедя, но она никак не связанно с нашей туманностью. Разнообразие цветов и оригинальная форма привлекает очень многих любителей астрономии

And finally, the famous Iris Nebula
Iris Nebula (NGC 7023) is located 1,300 light-years away from of our earth. The discovery of a nebula did William Herschel October 18, 1794. Nebula in the constellation Cepheus. According to scientists, Iris have a particular contains hydrogen gas, thanks to which a new stars born. This is a unique view, like the flower ,in the center of which is a bright star. Thanks to her, we can see this beautiful blue outline.
Туманность Ирис ( NGC 7023 ) расположена в 1300 световыъ лет от нашей земли. Открытие туманности сделал Уильям Гершель 18 октября 1794 года. Туманность находится в созвездии Цефея. По данным ученым, в Ирисе содержится особенный газ водорода, благодаря которому появляются новые звезды. Это уникальное зрелище, похожее на цветок, в центре которого находится яркая звезда. Благодаря ей, мы можем видеть это прекрасное голубое очертание

Don't forget to follow @luision
@gavvet features authors to promote new authors and a diversity of content. All STEEM Dollars for this post go to the featured author.
@luision is part of my current effort to promote foreign language writers writing in English and Russian
I came across @luision the other day and I have serious doubts about the authenticity and originality of the majority of his posts.
Why? He has taken to posting "his" art lately, with a few Steemit-circlejerking ones thrown in the mix.
Examples of Steemit drawings:
https://steemit.com/art/@luision/second-steemit-cars-feedback-please-good-or-bad
https://steemit.com/art/@luision/i-painted-myself-whale-i-hope-we-take-him-in-our-friendly-steemit-family
Examples of art he claims to have made:
https://steemit.com/art/@luision/i-drew-these-two-lowers-specially-for-steemit
https://steemit.com/art/@luision/drew-a-car-i-hope-you-like
https://steemit.com/art/@luision/srying-girl-she-is-very-disappointed
https://steemit.com/art/@luision/sad-girl-holding-a-balloon-cell-i-drew-this
It doesn't take an art expert to see the disparity in skill and style between his own drawings and the art I believe he is plagiarizing. I asked him to verify he was the artist of the artworks beyond any shadow of a doubt, and he first responded with delaying and diversion. Then he created a poorly taken "verification" photo with a piece of paper of "his" sketch behind his two other works. But it looks to me that it was printed on a piece of paper. You can see this dialog here: https://steemit.com/art/@luision/i-drew-this-last-night-it-was-very-hard-looking-at-the-moon
Based on the above I think it's also likely that these photographs are plagiarized too. I believe @luision is a fraud who is out to milk Steemit for money by plagiarizing others' work. @gavvet in light of this and other "guest poster's" hosting fraud posts with fraud authors I suggest you look into your guests a little better. I've downvoted this post based on my conclusions.
Guys, I think this guy is just jealous of me. He compares my sketches and finished works, which is very stupid
If you look at his profile, you will not find proof photographs he made
Just look this him photo very high quality - https://steemit.com/photography/@pfunk/flowery-photos
And this post very terrible quality photos - https://steemit.com/pics/@pfunk/my-pictures-of-a-crazy-collection-of-rare-and-bizarre-antique-guns-oc
Why do some terrible quality photos and other high quality?
In the second post, we see a lot of mistakes when he make a photos, that can be done only beginner
I asked him to show proof, but he did not show anything
I think all post of his account fake
More diversion! I'd like to see you take better photos with almost no light and only an old phone to take them with :)
Now if you'd like to actually post a real picture of your work next to the sketchbook with the other drawings you made, and maybe one of the paintings too? In color and high resolution? Not selecting the specific drawing that you might get away with if you printed it?
Agree with pfunk we need further proof
If you want to discuss my pictures, write in my posts
Give me proof that these photos are not mine
Ha ha. The photographer did not take a camera
Why there is no proof at all of your photos? You did not answer me
For anyone wondering, I provided proof in steemit.chat that I am capable of taking the photographs I've posted recently and that I went to The House on the Rock, where I took my photos of the weird guns.
Great post - thanks. I thought only large observatories could achieve this. APOD is one of my favourite apps too. More please.
It boggles my mind how big the universe truly is...
Actually it hard to imagine)
In our universe of billions of galaxies, which each include billions of stars and planets
We need to invent hyper speed at some point to explore them... or even better... ludacris speed! ;)
That M101 , it look like she losing arms ? Man please give more of this , Great .
You more liked the м101? Especially for you I make a couple of photos on this weekend, if the weather will be good
I like them all , but this one caught my attention . I love to stare on night sky . Great work my man . Keep up .
What amazing photos! The Witch's Broom is especially fascinating. I'd never seen or heard of it before. Astonishing how telescopic tech allows us to see so very far away. Thank you for posting!
Thank you) Very nice to hear such words)
Our universe is a very big and very beautiful.
You can view photos taken Hubble telescope, you'll be very surprised how unique our universe
@gavvet @luision
You just touched my soft spot. Astronomy is indeed spectacular
I am very happy that you enjoyed)
Mind blowing dimensions! There is a lot of talk in the news about alien contact right now because in Zelenchukskaya, Russia they detected a signal and are waiting for a confirmation http://observer.com/2016/08/not-a-drill-seti-is-investigating-a-possible-extraterrestrial-signal-from-deep-space/
can you point your telescope in that direction? :)
I'm sitting here like:
LOL ... I hope you have a great day everybody and enjoy your weekend :)
Cheers! @gavvet
The picture of the Andromeda Galaxy is just wow! The Veil Nebula looks very interesting too, like some kind of a colossal rainbow curtain ;-)
Thanks)
In everyday life, we often don't see what a beauty around us, just only need to up your head)
I can enjoy it for a very long time
Lovely photo! to be there - away from of the earth bustle).
Thanks) I really would like go there) is not only looking through telescope
luision, Love the universal pics! Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you, I am very pleased
Amazing pictures!
Thanks)
Very great pictures! You've got one follower more!
Perhaps you might like my latest shot. :-)
Thanks) yes, sure)
Good science, the star is very beautiful.
