Using data collected from the eROSITA (Extended Roentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) instrument aboard the German–Russian satellite Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma over the past six months, a group of researchers have created this x-ray map of the universe in an attempt to help calculate how fast the universe is expanding. Some

This is the Star Trek uniform inspired bedding created by Character World. Available only in twin size for an extra challenge while making all the love you’re definitely about to while wearing prosthetic Vulcan ears, there’s a blue Star Trek: Discovery command set available on Amazon (~$35), as well as

This is ‘A Decade Of Sun’, a timelapse of the sun using photos captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). Each day of the past ten years is represented by a single second of footage, with 24 frames/second (each frame one real-time hour), for a total of 61-minutes of retina-melting
