Durham Astronomers' work features on Astronomy Picture of the Day
(15 October 2012)
An image created by Dr Nigel Metcalfe and Dr Peter Draper has been chosen to feature on the well-known NASA APOD (Astronomy Picture of the
Day) website for October 12th
http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap121012.html
which showcases some of the world's finest astronomical pictures. The beautiful colour picture, of a star-forming region of the Milky Way known as the Lagoon and Triffid nebulae, was created in Durham from greyscale images taken with the Pan-STARRS (Panoramic Survey Telescope & Rapid Response System) telescope in Hawaii. This is fitted with a 1.4 gigapixel camera, which enables wide-field shots such as this to be taken. Durham University is a member of the Pan-STARRS PS1 consortium.
