Okay, sit down because we have a number of important pieces to tell you about planetary and planetary observation and photography and we’re probably bursting a lot of bubbles. It appears that more than 200,000 people thought the image below was the actual image of a planet. In a post widely shared over the past few days, Twitter user Jesse wrote, “Look at the planet that NASA found … she’s so beautiful.”
I hope you all really enjoyed the gorgeous pictures because now it’s time to ruin them (however, for one of your amazing numbers). First, check out one fact: Many people claim that the planet was discovered in 2019 by a 17-year-old. Second and most importantly, these images of exoplanets are not too many photographs. Many, including the person who posted the images, believed that the artist’s impressions, published by NASA and other exoplanet-location people, were direct images of the exoplanet.
A good rule of thumb seems to be that it does not stay out of space in Star Wars, it is one of the planets in our own solar system (many of Jupiter taken by Jr., see many gorgeous pictures or Saturn by Hubble) or the impression of an exoplanet artist. By definition, Exoplanets are extraterrestrial planets outside our solar system. Hunting is not an easy task for exoplanets. Astronomers usually use a variety of techniques to obtain indirect evidence of their existence. When a candidate is identified, researchers use different methods to confirm its existence. Astronomers have only once confirmed the existence of exoplanets with direct images and it certainly does not show pink and pearls.
Artists hire NASA and other space agencies and research agencies to create glorious imagery seen whenever an exciting new planet is discovered. It is not only random; of course, it creates their visualization using real data to be as realistic as possible from the discoveries.
Explained Douglas Hudgins, a program scientist for the Exoplanet Exploration Program at NASA, in a feature on the art of exoplanets, “For the public, its value is not just about giving them an image created by someone. These are real, educated assumptions about how something might appear to people. An image is worth a thousand words.”
These cannot be said to be perfect on the basis of information. “When we think of this artist, we never say, “These planets actually look like this, ’” added Tim Pyle, who worked on Exoplanet Visualization after a career in Hollywood special effects. “On what we know so far based on that, we’re making dirty examples of what they might look like. “
Luckily, the bot maker created the pipe to mark the real heritage of the beautiful planet, which was gratefully accepted and shared by the original poster. The creator of The Stars bot told Tumblr that they were inspired by images captured by Saturn-studying Cassini and started an algorithm to create these images and automatically post them on social media, where they mistakenly dug up real planet images directly from the internet. If you’re a little disappointed, let’s blow your mind with these incredibly realistic images of the wonders of our solar system.
