NGC 7635: Bubble Nebula

Can eyeballs bounce? Like if you were to scoop someone's eye out and it came out in perfect shape would it bounce if it fell on the floor?

I’m not sure. They can be rubbery, but I’m not sure if the force required to make them bounce wouldn’t also make them go splat.

Maybe some biology/med students know (I don’t deal much with eyeballs as a Chemistry major).

Teens, Inspired! Luisa Lyons

Artist Name: Luisa Lyons

Title: Fueling the Flame

Media: Acrylic on Canvas

School: Green Hope High School

Teacher: Ms. Prichard

Inspired by: Thomas Moran, “Fiercely the red sun descending/Burned his way along the heavens”,  1875–1876

Artist Statement: My painting was inspired by Thomas Moran’s Fiercely the red sun descending/Burned his way along the heavens. Moran’s arrangement of colors and texture shows the beauty of the ocean and the way the descending sun’s rays glow throughout the piece. The image I painted was a girl with fire as her hair and the ocean as her skin. The fire and water conflict on the outside of her body, creating smoke in the air. The issue that this painting shows is global warming. In the future, the ocean will swallow the land creating conflict and destruction. This clash is depicted with the use of the fire vs the water. Global warming is a very real issue and can only be slowed with the help of everyone around the world.

“For an art lover, New York is a confusion of riches. In galleries right now you’ll find — along with lots of painting — miniature theaters, an indoor pool, a chairlift, poetry-writing clocks, feature-length films, telepathic emails and an entire library of books that should have been written but weren’t. Keeping track of such variety takes work. @nytimes critics fanned out across the city on a group mission to make sense of all of the options. @jakenaughton photographed the artist @lorenzmarie, right, known for her works on the city’s waterways, lounging poolside at @recessart with 2 former students. “Flow Pool,” an elliptical enclosure you can float in, is a centerpiece for projects and events involving writers, musicians and scientists — and for drop-in “pool parties.” Visit the link in our profile to see our spring gallery guide.” By nytimes on Instagram.
