Radical Cartwheel Galaxy
This false-color composite image shows the Cartwheel galaxy as seen by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer’s far ultraviolet detector (blue); the Hubble Space Telescope’s wide field and planetary camera 2 in B-band visible light (green); the Spitzer Space Telescope’s infrared array camera at 8 microns (red); and the Chandra X-ray Observatory’s advanced CCD imaging spectrometer-S array instrument (purple).
Approximately 100 million years ago, a smaller galaxy plunged through the heart of Cartwheel galaxy, creating ripples of brief star formation. In this image, the first ripple appears as an ultraviolet-bright blue outer ring. The blue outer ring is so powerful in the Galaxy Evolution Explorer observations that it indicates the Cartwheel is one of the most powerful UV-emitting galaxies in the nearby universe. The blue color reveals to astronomers that associations of stars 5 to 20 times as massive as our sun are forming in this region. The clumps of pink along the outer blue ring are regions where both X-rays and ultraviolet radiation are superimposed in the image. These X-ray point sources are very likely collections of binary star systems containing a blackhole (called massive X-ray binary systems). The X-ray sources seem to cluster around optical/ultraviolet-bright supermassive star clusters.
The yellow-orange inner ring and nucleus at the center of the galaxy result from the combination of visible and infrared light, which is stronger towards the center. This region of the galaxy represents the second ripple, or ring wave, created in the collision, but has much less star formation activity than the first (outer) ring wave. The wisps of red spread throughout the interior of the galaxy are organic molecules that have been illuminated by nearby low-level star formation. Meanwhile, the tints of green are less massive, older visible-light stars.
Although astronomers have not identified exactly which galaxy collided with the Cartwheel, two of three candidate galaxies can be seen in this image to the bottom left of the ring, one as a neon blob and the other as a green spiral. Previously, scientists believed the ring marked the outermost edge of the galaxy, but the latest GALEX observations detect a faint disk, not visible in this image, that extends to twice the diameter of the ring.

This is a close up of a llama eye. The strange “ruffles” are called ‘iridic granules’ (corpora nigra) and they are used to to shade the eye from bright sunlight. In bright light these iridic granules can actually interlock to completely cover the centre of the pupil. This leaves just two holes open on either end of the pupil, reducing the amount of light that can enter the eye.
These odd looking structures are also found in horses, cattle and sheep.

ALOIN CELLS:
Botanist Anatoly I. Mikhaltsov of the Children’s Ecological and Biological Center in Omsk, Russia, was studying the anatomy of Aloe erinacea, an endangered species of aloe endemic to Namibia, when he captured this image of the plant’s aloin cells (blue)—which secrete a component of the gel-like sap that oozes from an aloe’s severed leaf—using a coloring method that he developed. The cluster of aloin cells is 300 microns wide. [Less] [Link to this slide]

Ever wish you could see sounds? Now you can.
- The call of a white beaked dolphin.
- The song of a humpback whale.
- The sound of crickets chirping.
- The song of a Northern Cardinal forms a looping vortex of yellow and purple.
- The baritone song of the Northern minke whale.
Sounds like these – being sounds – are obviously usually heard, not seen; but the notes and tones seen here have been converted into a visual medium by Mark Fischer, a computer programmer and expert in marine acoustics, using a tool known as a wavelet transform.
Historically, wavelet transforms have been used to convert time-series data like acoustic pressure signals (some of them at frequencies outside the range of human hearing) into more analyzable, and therefore useful, forms. Recently, they’ve been used to this end in research surrounding whale communication and the calls of birds and insects.
Often these audible → visible conversions result in a black and white image. Here, they’re beautifully color-coded. Violets correspond to high frequencies, greens and blues to medium ones. Low frequencies are depicted in red.
