A cyanometer is a device used to measure the intensity of blue in the sky, often used in meteorology and atmospheric studies. It typically consists of a series of blue color patches or a color gradient, allowing the user to compare the sky’s color to these reference colors.

The Helix Nebula, also known as NGC 7293, is one of the closest planetary nebulae to Earth, located approximately 650 light-years away in the constellation Aquarius.
It is often referred to as the "Eye of God" due to its appearance in images, which resembles a large eye.

Here’s something to think about as you kick off 2025: We are all stardust. Every atom of oxygen in our lungs, of carbon in our muscles, of calcium in our bones, of iron in our blood—was created inside a star before Earth was born. Hydrogen and helium, the lightest elements, were produced in the Big Bang. Almost all of the other, heavier, elements were produced inside stars. Stars forge heavy elements by fusion in their cores. In a star of intermediate mass, these elements can mix into the star’s atmosphere and be spread into space through stellar winds.
