i think you have mentioned this already but for the mk is related to the underworld theory/eldritch mk theory in his kaiju form/war form there are like. these odd little floating things that look like souls?? and they're all very creepy looking with smiles on their faces and it's so very unsettling

(Post anon is talking about)

Dude literally like

And they just put that there for a second, didn't explain anything (like usual) and expected me to be normal about it

#my brain works in patterns and making connections #which is obvious enough from my blog #BUT LIKE. COME ON MAN LOOK AT IT #this is why I think MK is an eldritch abomination. Because what the fuck writers.#I do not know how else to describe him #It's just ''look at him using macaque's powers in 1x09'' and ''oooo he has blue eyes!'' like ALL THE TIME #''Aw oh no someone stole MK's powers :('' "JK SIKE HE GOT THEM BACK''#''And also he can beat god who's power was literally tearing the universe apart''#Like. I know. I know Azure was probably holding back somewhat so he didn't destroy the universe. BUT EVEN THEN #WHAT THE FUCK IS MK ON. NOT EVEN SWK COULD DO THAT. HE DIDN'T DO THAT.#HE GOT PUT UNDER A MOUNTAIN #''This is not about the Monkey King. There is something more at play here—something about you.'' YEAH YOU'RE RIGHT SCROLL SUBODHI #there IS something more at play here #asks #lmk #lego monkie kid #monkie kid #lmk MK #eamk theory

I want to go back over Brennah's sprites to give him a longer beard to fit his long ponytail, so I used this pose for practice :>

(Ronin uses he/him, Brennah uses he/they and was designed by @/hobgobbin)

and then, just like that or gladys

i dreamt that i jumped out of a window at the top of the washington monument to escape an office christmas party. i executed a perfect tuck and roll and run away at the bottom. what a rush. more dreams like that please

the mumbleverse has been so operatically drama filled since the second blue moon epoch began. the good, the bad, and the mythopoetically memorable; so many folks in my life are going through big life changes. i apologize in advance if you are somehow dragged into this entropic field

i had another fun weekend with a new friend

i started work crafting the long awaited synonym for imperfectible

i had good, long, laughter filled conversations with an old friend

i ate a perfect slice of mellow mushroom mighty meaty pizza. four m's in mmmm

i took care of an issue at my parent's house while they were out of town, redistributed a ribeye the size of my head from their deep freezer into my belly, and had a nice light hearted lunch with them on their return

my daughter moved into an apartment two buildings over from mine and we can visit each other without ever walking on anything but grass

my son rescued a trapped hummingbird and brought it back from near death by holding it up to flower blossoms to drink

i slept with my windows open and woke up to a chill that required an extra blanket to abate, and just like that it was fall

#i want to be a turtle when i grow up #universe twenty-seven #a voyage for mad men #up a seven storey mountain #when he paused at the end of a joke #cassiby #second blue moon epoch #first autumn

tbh sammy cacciatore is a scumbag & like. an awful person especially with women but he is smart to go for that mascot role because he basically gets to hang out with the cheerleaders all the time & gain all the benefits of jock-ness without actually being a jock which is what alex claims he wants to do. if alex was smart he'd go for that mascot role

#i'm kidding i know alex's whole arc is about realizing he actually does care about some things #but it's just funny that this never occurred to him #blue mountain state #very funny of me to make aang the mascot in my university au #that takes vague inspiration at times from blue mountain state #because aang is like.....the least like sammy of any atla character #tbh i don't think there's any atla character as stupid & evil (affectionate) as sammy cacciatore #like no one fits that role #but for sure not aang skdjskdj

Astronomers used three of NASA's Great Observatories to capture this multiwavelength image showing galaxy cluster IDCS J1426.5+3508. It includes X-rays recorded by the Chandra X-ray Observatory in blue, visible light observed by the Hubble Space Telescope in green, and infrared light from the Spitzer Space Telescope in red. This rare galaxy cluster has important implications for understanding how these megastructures formed and evolved early in the universe.

How Astronomers Time Travel

Let’s add another item to your travel bucket list: the early universe! You don’t need the type of time machine you see in sci-fi movies, and you don’t have to worry about getting trapped in the past. You don’t even need to leave the comfort of your home! All you need is a powerful space-based telescope.

But let’s start small and work our way up to the farthest reaches of space. We’ll explain how it all works along the way.

This animation illustrates how fast light travels between Earth and the Moon. The farther light has to travel, the more noticeable its speed limit becomes.

The speed of light is superfast, but it isn’t infinite. It travels at about 186,000 miles (300 million meters) per second. That means that it takes time for the light from any object to reach our eyes. The farther it is, the more time it takes.

You can see nearby things basically in real time because the light travel time isn’t long enough to make a difference. Even if an object is 100 miles (161 kilometers) away, it takes just 0.0005 seconds for light to travel that far. But on astronomical scales, the effects become noticeable.

This infographic shows how long it takes light to travel to different planets in our solar system.

Within our solar system, light’s speed limit means it can take a while to communicate back and forth between spacecraft and ground stations on Earth. We see the Moon, Sun, and planets as they were slightly in the past, but it's not usually far enough back to be scientifically interesting.

As we peer farther out into our galaxy, we use light-years to talk about distances. Smaller units like miles or kilometers would be too overwhelming and we’d lose a sense of their meaning. One light-year – the distance light travels in a year – is nearly 6 trillion miles (9.5 trillion kilometers). And that’s just a tiny baby step into the cosmos.

youtube

The Sun’s closest neighboring star, Proxima Centauri, is 4.2 light-years away. That means we see it as it was about four years ago. Betelgeuse, a more distant (and more volatile) stellar neighbor, is around 700 light-years away. Because of light’s lag time, astronomers don’t know for sure whether this supergiant star is still there! It may have already blasted itself apart in a supernova explosion – but it probably has another 10,000 years or more to go.

What looks much like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening is actually the edge of a nearby, young, star-forming region NGC 3324 in the Carina Nebula. Captured in infrared light by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals previously obscured areas of star birth.

The Carina Nebula clocks in at 7,500 light-years away, which means the light we receive from it today began its journey about 3,000 years before the pyramids of Giza in Egypt were built! Many new stars there have undoubtedly been born by now, but their light may not reach Earth for thousands of years.

An artist’s concept of our Milky Way galaxy, with rough locations for the Sun and Carina nebula marked.

If we zoom way out, you can see that 7,500 light-years away is still pretty much within our neighborhood. Let’s look further back in time…

This stunning image by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope features the spiral galaxy NGC 5643. Looking this good isn’t easy; 30 different exposures, for a total of nine hours of observation time, together with Hubble’s high resolution and clarity, were needed to produce an image of such exquisite detail and beauty.

Peering outside our Milky Way galaxy transports us much further into the past. The Andromeda galaxy, our nearest large galactic neighbor, is about 2.5 million light-years away. And that’s still pretty close, as far as the universe goes. The image above shows the spiral galaxy NGC 5643, which is about 60 million light-years away! That means we see it as it was about 60 million years ago.

As telescopes look deeper into the universe, they capture snapshots in time from different cosmic eras. Astronomers can stitch those snapshots together to unravel things like galaxy evolution. The closest ones are more mature; we see them nearly as they truly are in the present day because their light doesn’t have to travel as far to reach us. We can’t rewind those galaxies (or our own), but we can get clues about how they likely developed. Looking at galaxies that are farther and farther away means seeing these star cities in ever earlier stages of development.

youtube

The farthest galaxies we can see are both old and young. They’re billions of years old now, and the light we receive from them is ancient since it took so long to traverse the cosmos. But since their light was emitted when the galaxies were young, it gives us a view of their infancy.

This animation is an artist’s concept of the big bang, with representations of the early universe and its expansion.

Comparing how fast objects at different distances are moving away opened up the biggest mystery in modern astronomy: cosmic acceleration. The universe was already expanding as a result of the big bang, but astronomers expected it to slow down over time. Instead, it’s speeding up!

The universe’s expansion makes it tricky to talk about the distances of the farthest objects. We often use lookback time, which is the amount of time it took for an object’s light to reach us. That’s simpler than using a literal distance, because an object that was 10 billion light-years away when it emitted the light we received from it would actually be more than 16 billion light-years away right now, due to the expansion of space. We can even see objects that are presently over 30 billion light-years from Earth, even though the universe is only about 14 billion years old.

This James Webb Space Telescope image shines with the light from galaxies that are more than 13.4 billion years old, dating back to less than 400 million years after the big bang.

Our James Webb Space Telescope has helped us time travel back more than 13.4 billion years, to when the universe was less than 400 million years old. When our Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope launches in a few years, astronomers will pair its vast view of space with Webb’s zooming capabilities to study the early universe in better ways than ever before. And don’t worry – these telescopes will make plenty of pit stops along the way at other exciting cosmic destinations across space and time.

Learn more about the exciting science Roman will investigate on X and Facebook.
