Tonight is the first full moon of spring in the northern hemisphere! Pink flowers coming into bloom lend their name to this full moon.

Full moons occur when the Moon is opposite the Sun in its orbit around Earth and its nearside is fully illuminated.

This being England, it is cloudy, how predictable eh.


In some Christian traditions, Easter falls on the first Sunday after this full moon, called the Paschal Moon. This full moon also marks the start of the Jewish holiday, Passover. Do you have a holiday or festival associated with the April full moon?

Last year, I moved into a place with a large western window, pretty good for suburban stargazing. My tradition is looking at the moon and appreciating it.

About 390 million light-years away, the galaxy Z 229-15 shines extra brightly, as seen by @NASAHubble. Its luminosity is caused by a black hole at the center as a disk of material heats as it swirls toward the galaxy's core: go.nasa.gov/40uKG1z

Quasars are bright objects powered by supermassive black holes that blast out energy as they consume everything within their gravitational grasp.

Hubble detected a pair of quasars that existed when our universe was just 3 billion years old: go.nasa.gov/3U96spd
#Hubble



Because of how long it takes distant light to reach Hubble, this double quasar no longer exists.

Over the past 10 billion years, their host galaxies have likely settled into an elliptical galaxy, and the quasars have merged to become a supermassive black hole at its center.

5,322! That's how many planets we've confirmed beyond our solar system. That includes 10 such recent discoveries as K2-415 b, a warm, super-Earth orbiting a low-mass M dwarf star 71 light-years away. A year there, one orbit, takes 4 days. exoplanets.nasa.gov/discovery/
