the heart of the (plasma) matter: Abroad in Space
over the weekend thomas used a telescope worth more than my life to take this twilight shot at kitt peak national observatory.
this is known widely as the eagle nebula, but it’s sometimes called the ‘pillar of creation’ because it’s a region of gas that induces rapid star formation.

“I think about swimming with him into the cave at Portuguese Bend, about the swell of clear water, the way it changed, the swiftness and power it gained as it narrowed through the rocks at the base of the point. The tide had to be just right. We could only have done this a half dozen times at most during the two years we lived there but it is what I remember. Each time we did it I was afraid of missing the swell, hanging back, timing it wrong. John never was. You had to feel the swell change. You had to go with the change. He told me that. No eye is on the sparrow but he did tell me that.”
— Joan Didion, The Year of Magical Thinking
