If you have sharp eyes or good binoculars, you can sometimes see double in the night sky – two stars that are quite close together. In some cases, the stars really are close – they can be bound to each other by gravity, forming a binary. In other cases, though, it’s just a coincidence. The stars are unrelated, but they just happen to line up in the same direction. These stars are known as optical doubles. And some of them are beautiful sights – especially when viewed through a telescope. The two members can show different colors, providing a nice contrast. One of the best-known examples is Albireo. It marks the head of Cygnus, the swan, and it’s high overhead at nightfall. A small telescope reveals one blue star and one gold star. The best measurements to date indicate that the stars are about 30 light-years apart. An example that’s visible to the eye alone is Algedi, in Capricornus. It’s due south at nightfall. The eye can just make it out as two separate points of light. The stars are hundreds of light-years apart. Sometimes, it’s hard to tell if a double star is a binary or not. The best example is Mizar and Alcor, in the handle of the Big Dipper. It’s fairly easy to see the stars as two points of light. They actually move through space together, so they probably were born together. But astronomers aren’t sure if they’re a true binary – or just two related stars moving through space on their own.

One of the most graceful and beautiful of all constellations soars high overhead on summer nights. Cygnus, the swan, lines up in the east and northeast in early evening. The swan's body is roughly parallel to the horizon, with its wings extended above and below. The bright star Deneb marks its tail, with the double star Albireo representing its beak. Cygnus is also known as the Northern Cross. In fact, the pattern is so bright and obvious that quite a few cultures have shown it as a cross. For the Maya of Central America, the cross may have played a role in the succession of kings. Evidence of this role comes from a temple in the Mayan city of Palenque. Murals in the temple depict starry crosses, which some scientists have interpreted as Cygnus. The temple is aligned toward the northwest, to the point on the horizon where Deneb set. Some of the artwork depicts the life of King Chan Bahlum. He was appointed heir to the throne in June of the year 641. From Palenque, Deneb was rising around sunset at that time of year. And Chan Bahlum became king in January of 684 — a time when Deneb was just becoming visible in the morning sky, and dropping from view at dusk — in perfect view from the temple. Look for Deneb and the rest of Cygnus throughout the night. The swan is in the east and northeast as darkness falls, with its body roughly parallel to the horizon. It flies high overhead during the night. More about Deneb tomorrow.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

*Partnered contentIn Boston, Massachusetts, one company is now making significant headway in the development of an innovative treatment for rare pediatric liver diseases.Led by president and chief executive officer Ron Cooper, Albireo (Nasdaq: ALBO) has since 2021 boasted both US and EU approval for the novel bile acid modulator Bylvay (odevixibat).The oral medicine addresses an unmet need by providing the first non-surgical treatment option for people with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC), a rare genetic disorder affecting young children that causes progressive, life threatening liver disease.Bylvay is approved for the treatment of pruritus in PFIC in the USA, and for PFIC in Europe.The company has also recently announced positive top-line results from the Phase III ASSERT study, which is testing Bylvay in Alagille syndrome (ALGS), another rare genetic disorder.Approval in ALGS would open up another source of revenue for the product, and offer hope for families impacted by this serious condition, which affects multiple organ systems including the liver and heart.Estimates vary for the therapy's peak revenue potential, but most analysts suggest the product will be able to generate hundreds of millions in annual sales, should all go according to plan.As well as transforming the treatment of rare conditions with a high disease burden, such an outcome would enable the company to more fully explore the science of IBAT inhibition, an approach which it believes has great potential in a wide range of cholestatic liver diseases.In this week's episode of The Pharma Letter Podcast, I'm pleased to be joined by Ron Cooper, for a discussion of his company's clinical goals and strategic focus.

In 2019, a SpaceX rocket released 60 small satellites into low-Earth orbit—the first wave of more than 10,000 planned releases. At the same time, a new field of environmental debate was also launched—with satellite companies on one side, and astronomers, photographers, and stargazers on the other. Contributing Correspondent Joshua Sokol joins host Sarah Crespi to talk about the future of these space-based swarms. Over the course of the first 18 months of the coronavirus pandemic, different variants of the virus have come and gone. What would such changes look like over 10,000 years? Arthur Kocher, a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, talks with Sarah about watching the evolution of the virus that causes hepatitis B—over 10 millennia—and how changes in the disease's path match up with shifts in human history. This week's episode was produced with help from Podigy.

Die Existenz schwarzer Löcher war lange Zeit nur eine Hypothese. Dann hat man Cygnus X-1 entdeck: Das erste uns bekannte echte schwarze Loch! Die Entdeckung war nicht leicht, wie ihr in der neuen Folge der Sternengeschichten erfahren könnt.

Join us as we take a road trip to a star party! The Salt Lake Astronomical Society (SLAS) recently hosted a star party at Stansbury Park Observatory Complex (SPOC). We viewed Jupiter and Saturn through several telescopes, including the 200mm Bogdan Refractor and the 1.8M Clements Reflector. We also were able to look at The Whirlpool Galaxy, Messier 13, Albireo, and other celestial objects through the many telescopes brought to the star party by the SLAS members. Truly an amazing evening of stargazing!

Oportunidad de salida de observación de cielo profundo con la que me tropecé un domingo. Así que sin pensarlo demasiado ni consultar previsiones meteorológicas, me dirigí a por mi telescopio a media tarde, -el Dobson de 16 pulgadas- lo cargué en el maletero y lo que no es el maletero también y me fui a plena luz del día a una de las explanadas de la zona en donde suelo observar. Son las inmediaciones de la Bellida, un monte suave a unos 1.300 msnm, en una zona a apenas 15 minutos de Alcublas, que ya cae en la provincia de Castellón y que está a muy poco, a un tiro de piedra, de Aragón. La pared de montañas que tengo al N.O. sin ir más lejos ya es Gúdar-Javalambre. Esta es una zona fría, deshabitada, a unos 300 m tengo una aldea en la que entre semana viven dos personas; llena de restos de ventisqueros, que son esas construcciones que se utilizaban para conservar la nieve hasta el verano y levarla a Valencia para surtir a las heladerías y horchaterías cuando no existían las neveras eléctricas; una zona donde en las lomas desprotegidas no hay árboles porque históricamente ni el viento frío ni el peso de la nieve ha dejado crecer nada que mida más de un palmo. Incluso están desprovistas de una capa de tierra donde pueda agarrar nada de envergadura. A lugares como este es donde me escapo. En verano es un respiro. Un paréntesis. Montaría con luz, vería atardecer, cenaría a una hora de persona humana y al oscurecer ya lo tendría todo preparado. Imaginaros, en plena ola de calor en todas partes y yo con una chaqueta de plumas y hasta con la capucha puesta. Es lo más parecido a un día perfecto. ¿La sesión? Observación a principios del verano boreal que fue una salida frustrada de observación de cielo profundo que por suerte se pudo salvar gracias a la presencia en el cielo de los dos gigantes gaseosos de nuestro sistema solar. Nubes que iban y venían, brumas cambiantes, algunas nubes de las que SÍ tapan el cielo. Viento suave con algunas rachas intermitentes. Estas noches se convierten en el juego del gato y el ratón y la observación de objetos difusos se convierte en algo difícil ya que es raro poder observar un objeto durante cinco minutos seguidos sin que las nubes se interpongan en medio. Aun así, tuve a Júpiter, que está en oposición, es decir muy bien centrado en el cielo. Aproveché para recorrer la constelación de Cygnus, el cisne, que al estar muy alta en el cielo se veía algo (un poco) menos afectada por las nubes. Y revisité los objetos de esta constelación que enumeré en el programa anterior en el episodio sobre observación con prismáticos. Un poco para hacer una comparación de cómo se observan los mismos objetos a través de dos instrumentos tan diferentes. Si bien, es más un chequeo rápido que una observación concienzuda, pues el cielo no se prestaba demasiado. Una vez recorrida esta constelación, el planeta Saturno que también está próximo a su oposición y ya había alcanzado una altura suficiente para ser observado con alguna garantía de calidad. No deja de ser verano y la eclíptica (el carril por el que circulan los planetas en el cielo) está bastante bajita. Pero una oposición siempre es una oposición y es el mejor momento (meteorología mediante) para observar el planeta con un volumen generoso. Además, como estamos hablando de bolitas a las que no les falta luz, son en cierto modo inmunes a las nubes traslúcidas que Sí estropean la observación de objetos borrosos y poco brillantes. * Los objetos citados en el episodio son… Júpiter En Cygnus: M29, cúmulo abierto. M39, cúmulo abierto. Albireo, estrella doble. Nebulosa planetaria NGC6884. Nebulosa planetaria NGC6826 (parpadeante). Nebulosa oscura Barnard 384. En Vulpécula: Nebulosa planetaria M27.

PFIC is a rare genetic disorder that causes progressive, life-threatening liver disease. In many cases, PFIC leads to cirrhosis and liver failure within the first 10 years of life. Albireo, a 2008 spin-out of AstraZeneca, is developing bile acid modulators to treat PFIC and other rare pediatric liver diseases and gastrointestinal disorders. We spoke to Ron Cooper, CEO of Albireo, about PFIC, the challenge of developing a therapy for a disease with multiple forms and causes, and the path forward for the company.

Episodio 21. * Introducción. * Observación a pié de telescopio a principios de agosto en la que mi intención era observar las galaxias encuadradas entre los límites de la constelación Hercules, aunque previamente hago una breve escala en dos parejas de objetos en la constelación de Sagitario. Como colofón, resuelvo una nebulosa diminuta que se encuentra en Cygnus, próxima a la célebre estrella doble Albireo, y que ha sido para mí un reto durante años. El verdadero reto es encontrarla para después poner muchos aumentos, cosa no demasiado fácil de hacer manualmente y sin ayudas de coordenadas o computerizaciones. Nebulosa planetaria NGC6445 en Sagitario, junto al cúmulo globular NGC6440; NGC6520 y Barnard 86 (Mancha de Tinta), en Sagitario; Nebulosa planetaria NGC6781, en Aquila; Galaxia NGC 6207, y 6196, muy próximas al cúmulo globular M13, en Hercules; Grupo de galaxias cerca del cúmulo globular M92 en Hércules: NGC6329, 6332 y 6323; Galaxia NGC6239 en Hercules; Footprint nebula, Nebulosa de la pisada, (Minkouski 1-92) nebulosa proto-planetaria en Cygnus. * Promo del podcast Sobre Perros Podcast @sobreperrospod https://twitter.com/sobreperrospod Post en el blog y Podcast “Algunas Nebulosas Oscuras”: http://nestorgm.com/astronomia/algunas-nebulosas-oscuras/ * Despedida y formas de contacto para consultas, preguntas y dudas: - Web: nestorgm.com/lucesextranas/ - Twitter: @Luces_X - Correo: lucex@nestorgm.com - iTunes: https://itun.es/i6Sg8ym - iVoox: http://www.ivoox.com/podcast-luces-extranas_sq_f1234211_1.html - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3iEkTJs8B6sOxsWnUTwgyf?si=t5fTPg_qRnWmfhrdPrzZNA
