Boomerang Nebula, Hubble Space Telescope image. This is a bipolar reflection nebula, where gas and dust surrounding a star are shining by reflected light. The gas and dust in the nebula have been ejected by the star in two polar jets, moving in opposite directions, a process known as bipolar outflow. It is thought that the star at the centre of this nebula is an old red giant star. The nebula is around 2 light years in length. The Boomerang

Cartwheel galaxy, multi-wavelength image. Around 100 million years ago, a smaller galaxy passed directly through the centre of the Cartwheel galaxy. This caused shock waves to propagate out through the galaxy, which caused bursts of star formation. The bright blue ring marks the region where huge, powerful ultraviolet-emitting stars have formed. The inner orange ring is the second wave, but this has far less star formation than the first

Cats Eye nebula. Hubble Space Telescope image of the Cats Eye nebula (NGC 6543). This is a planetary nebula, shells of gas cast off by a dying star, whose light illuminates them. The star is seen at the centre of the nebula. The name is misleading, as planetary nebulae have nothing to do with planets. The structure of the gas shells is extremely intricate, and reveals much about the star and its slow death. The central regions show dense

GREAT NEW PIECE IN MAGNET ON SKYGREEN LEOPARDS/VERDURE. GREAT REVIEW ON PITCHFORK! 2nd album from San Fran singer/songwriter & SKYGREEN LEOPARDS member is given a proper release from its humble CDR beginnings w/remixing, remastering & great George Parsons art to boot. With lyrical depth, sound explorations & attention to detail that would draw comparisons to classic acid-folk, the zoned voyagers of the ESP roster & the stranger elements of pre-Depression era folk/blues. Waves of Hammond organ, shards of unexpected acid lead guitar & shaky tambourine jangles steer this album close to pop before it skirts back into dark but colorful obscurity. Even the jaded bastards at Revolver called his debut "strong songwriting (with) great pop hooks"

Bring the universe into your home in jaw-dropping full HD on Blu-ray 3D.
In May 2009, the Space Shuttle Atlantis crew launched a mission to make vital repairs and upgrades to the Hubble Space Telescope, the world's first space-based optical telescope. An IMAX® camera captured stunning footage of the five intricate spacewalks required, as well as close-up images of the effort to grasp the orbiting telescope with the shuttle's mechanical arm -- and an unexpected problem that could sabotage the entire mission. This breathtaking material is combined with images taken during the 20 years Hubble has been aloft. Through advanced computer visualization, its detailed data becomes a series of scientifically realistic flights unfolding on screen like a guided tour of the universe, through time and space.
This pack also includes the 2D version on DVD, Blu-ray and Digital Copy.
Blu-ray Special Features (Presented in 2D): Hubble Mission Logs Webisode Gallery with Astronaut Mike Massimino & "Inside IMAX's Hubble 3D" features.
Note: To watch the 3D version of this movie, you need a 3D HDTV, compatible 3D glasses, a Blu-ray 3D player (or PlayStation 3) and a high-speed HDMI cable.
