☀️Morning glory breaks at sunrise
Vibrant hues of yellows and gold illuminate the morning sky and ignite the clouds as a @SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket with a Crew Dragon spacecraft sits at Launch Complex 39A after being rolled out overnight as preparations continue for the Crew-1 mission scheduled to liftoff this Saturday,
Nov.
14 at 7:49pm EST.

NASA’s SpaceX Crew-1 mission is the first operational mission of the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft and Falcon 9 rocket to the @ISS as part of the Commercial Crew Program.
The mission crew includes @NASAastronauts Mike Hopkins,
Victor Glover,
and Shannon Walker,
and astronaut Soichi Noguchi of @jaxajp.

Take a deep breath.

In this @NASAHubble image,
galaxy UGCA 193 appears to host many young stars,
especially in the lower portion of this view,
creating a striking blue haze and the sense that the stars are falling from “above.”⁣
⁣
The blue color of UGCA 193 indicates the stars that we see are hot —
some more than six times hotter than our Sun.
Cooler stars appear to our eyes as redder,
and hotter stars appear bluer.
A star’s surface temperature and color are also linked to its mass,
with heavier stars “burning”
at higher temperatures,
resulting in a blue glow from their surfaces.⁣
