SWEEPING A COUNTERCLOCKWISE SWIRL AROUND A GALAXY CLUSTER
Click here for comparative original, where only a suggestion of the gravitation's cyclonnic swirl is indicated.
The galaxy cluster is Abell 1689, one of the most massive galaxy clusters known, sitting 2.2 billion light years away. The fainter traces from gravitational lensing are conjectured to be over 13 billion light years away.
It will be a question to determine if the cyclonnic counterclockwise swirl is in more recent activities, or is it imbedded in the most farthest reaching past.
Hubble ACS (Advanced Camera Survey) is publically back on line with a view of the distant early universe according to red shift, the new view 10 times the detail of former Hubble deep space studies, the new showing numerous small slices of blue and thin edges of gravitational galaxy light bending.
Of particular interest to astronomers who took months to factor Hubble ACS data down to facts for the actual final image, are the number of small arcs from gravitational lensing, ten times as many arcs as had been previously seen in earlier historic Hubble deep space surveys.
Original - a background field rich in cyclonnic traces is not apparent.
Click here for cyclonnics, to set up your memory, then read the next paragraphs.
Enhancements have revealed a rather striking unusual feature, which is that the Hubble ACS photo contains more very fine detail than is seen in the public release version, and that a pronounced bias sweeps in a wide arc around the lower right of the frame indicating a dramatic counterclockwise rotation seen for either the myriad galaxy bodies out there at such long distance, or, there is a strong counterclockwise bias in gravitational lensing at this place in deep space. The place in space (piece of space photographed) is very small.
As to which either direction the bias is sweeping, this seems a less than zoomed more than doomed question, in that the bias may not have any direction at all.
A sweeping arcs bias is not seen in the original. The sweeping arc bias is most noticable across the bottom sweeping up and around the east flank (right images above).
More enhancement (extra green and blue) reveals far more faint and tiny details in the greater distant deep space backdrop. Central objects (galaxies) have been whited out but this is not a problem in view of the glorious riches in cyclonnic swirling trace bits of signals from far far back toward the universe rear wall.
In fact (see next image) a second set of swirling cyclonnics from rearwall lensing is seen around the central dominant cluster of large galaxies, a cluster of several large round galaxies to the right does not appear to be involved in the central cluster's cyclonnics, so two separate different major gravitational lensings are revealed in the next photo.
The original
In fact, there is a secondary ring, very small, around a remote cluster in the upper left of the amplified window. The window has been ampilfied with no regard as to how much it glares out the brighter galaxies.
Handsomely amplified window.
In fact, if the whole picture is handsomely amplified, concentric rings can be seen everywhere in small and large formations. It almost begins to look like a hologram refraction pattern on a hologram negative.
It truely is a remarkable discovery image.
When looking at handome, You notice many of the arcs passing over or overlaying galaxies now vastly magnified and these galaxy contacting arcs are without doubt not associated with those galaxies. A question of interpretation remaining is, are the overshadowing arcs in the foreground overshadowing galaxies behind, or are the galaxies behind displaced by gravitational distortions so as to have moved into position to be overshadowed. This seems pointless. The proper course is to think that the lens crescents are forming in nearby space relative to the farther rearward distance of the lens amplifyer galaxies, amplifying galaxies laying far back near an earlier universe 'visiting station' after galaxies had formed.
Objects in the lense fragments themselves can be said to be extremely far away, however their gravitational image is in the foreground. Picture a news station's best TV camera with a lens artifact floating in foreground space, the camera focused on a far distant row of mountains.
In images next, a Hubble ACS view seems to be taking us all the way out to the universe's 'visiting station' when galaxies first began to form.

Swirling major concentric bias can be seen in the enhanced views (clicked from the list immediately above).
The bias are much better seen in the higher Dpi resolution of a good desktop graphics editor, where you can click-size the image to where the bias becomes totally self evident, in the midst of higher resolved details fitting the bias structure from extremely faint traces discernable in the higher Dpi of the graphics editor. The whole district in the lower right quadrant seems to be sweeping, as seen in its most faintest trace details. Almost every one of the bright objects in the perifery around the main galaxy cluster, has its own small ring of gravitational lensing.

EXTREME RANGE DEEP SPACE BACKDROP
Official ACS images site.
A hubble ACS image of extreme deep space backdrop is considered to be (at 13 billion years away) near or at the birth of galaxies, three extremely red shifted assumed new galaxies are shown by arrows.
The original
The image seems rich in captured dim and extremely dim low energy photon fluxes, when enhanced, two features immediately spring into view.
One is that the background field itself fills with boiling densities which seem coherent, in other words, as if a background regularity in the deep space fabric is revealed.
A second feature is that the field flux is saturated with teeming uncounted very small red dots, seen when the image is also highly enhanced in red.
Most of the myriads of tiny red dots are nested in clusters and short necklaces along ridges of the deep space fabric seen in blue, following contours in the blue mottling. A few of the red dots are nested within dark cavities between the blue contours.
An intermediate enlargement clicked in the above image shows off the red dots in a better way. It is hard to see the dots per se in the square pixels panel of the full size image.
In the intermediate enlargement, the three red galaxies indicated by arrows by astronomers are easily seen.
If the red and blue backdrop is imagery captured in the local milky way then the red dots are likely stars, and the blue are local material drifts. Interpretation that the blue mottling and red dots are wayyy back then, is more intriguing, the blue may be a formula matt upon which galaxies began forming in a galaxy bloom, if, the red dots are verrrry far away, and not local in the milky way. I can't tell the difference, can't run Hubble from a street address in Ottawa. You can, from your street address at astronomy head office.
Wide field deep space study by ESO (European Southern Observatory).
More breaking news on the January 2003 storm front is from ESO with a wide field deep space view which portents much more to come (link to ESO source site immediately above).
More images of the ESO wide field view, including originals, are here.
THE HOST GALAXY OF A NEARBY QUASAR IS REVEALED BY HUBBLE ACS
Official ACS images site.
A new Hubble ACS image (January 2003) is of a nearby quasar whose brillient hot center, which masks host galaxy structures, has been filtered out by Hubble to reveal host galaxy structures.
High enhancement reveals more of the host galaxy's outer structure, and a mysterious line crossing more than half the width of the plate.
The Original - thin arms rope around the inner galaxy.
Enhanced - the center is whited out, more of the galaxy's superstructure outreach is made visible. The ACS occulting finger is seen to the right.
A very unusual artifact in the form of long straight lines has shown up in the Hubble ACS image. The main line consists of bright and dark segments, vectored to the east. A bright short line rises to the north east from a sharp angle junction at the west end of the line.
Third possibility of course is difficulty in patching together small image segments has resulted in an image patching seam that is not seamless, and is not seen, hidden in low luminosity, revealed when image luminosity is highly enhanced.
The thumbnail at left is a maximized enhancement of the angle where the two lines seem to join. A sense of many small parallel ribs in a large roughly concentric frame is glimpsed but not verified in the enhancement.

MASSIVE RADIO JET (IN RED) FIRST EVER SEEN FROM A SPIRAL GALAXY
Another Hubble ACS release features a giant radio jet streaming from a spiral galaxy, verrrry unusual, jets steam from elliptical galaxies and galaxies in mergers, this from a spiral is the first seen, and it took the Hubble ACS accute eyesight to determine that the faraway galaxy with the giant jet is in fact a spiral galaxy.
Enhancement reveals nothing new, except that the Hubble ACS camera captured a host of dim photons, enough to show a handsome spiral galaxy hanging in deep space to the upper right, and that the spiral in question (central image) is larger by substantial quantities of dim (very low radiant) matter.

One thing clearly shown by enhancement is a very small blue galaxy which seems interractively leaving the eastern edge of the main galaxy, heading toward us into the lower right.
The large exposed spiral (face on), is also interesting. Notice the white lineal blobs extending away on a long thin trajectory in the upper left. These bright blobs are similar to blobs seen at super giant spiral galaxy M101.

Click for spiral histogram 1
Click for spiral histogram 2
Here are two views of M101, the right (pink) very highly enhanced, which show the white blobs which at first seem mysterious flyers are mass clump concentrations along very energetic long thin arms of the galaxy.
Next are Hubble and Hawiian Gemini survey images in different infra red frequencies high to low, and visible light.
The enhancement serves little else but to show that this is a larger rather than smaller spiral galaxy seen on edge.
A planet formalizing proto disk is seen in very obscure circumstances by Hubble ACS. Beside it an enhanced view showing nothing new save better distinction in textures in the proto rings around the central (blanked out) star.
If you view the disk in 3D (merge the two images together by eyesight), the dark (middle) disk will be seen in 3D to be deeply indented, meaning it really is dark, absent of matter.

The subject of 'rilldisks' (proto rings around stars) is explored here.
HUBBLE ACS CAMERA FINGER
The 'finger'
down the main field
of view of the Hubble ACS
telescope is interesting enough, how
to get rid of it, to most engineers in the
Hubble state farm. What is interesting is seen
in a Hubble reference photo showing the finger, there
are also oval islands, in this case rounds, peppering the
image, including a dog bone (green enhanced at left). Objects
like these are seen in historic Dss photos of nearby stars,
for instance a dogbone has been noted already and is
called a 'thug' as one in a catagory of strange
objects around giant stars shown here.
The ACS technical reference site, from which the above 'finger' illustration was downloaded, is here.
Here is the same photo given a shot of Histogram Equalize which isolates and clarifies most of the island ovals (rounds with centers) and the dog bone.

'Turning to
the assembly
surgeon spoke. It
is a question of perspective,
not distance in depth in space. Back
along the time line curving gently to the far rear
to the left is the superuniverse, seen small in comparison
to where we are at the present, just slightly more than 1/2 way
forward around this universe's time line. If proceeding back along
the actual curved time line the superuniverse would loom bigger
then immense then stupendous then overpowering
in size, and still you would have in view
only a small image of the whole vast
array. Out where we are, going
back or also looking back,
the view is much the
same it doesn't
matter near
or far
in
scale,
you here at
present at earth,
or the solar system, even
a galaxy in view from where you station
keep looking back along the time line, the image of
the vast superuniverse seems little changed in size. If you
at present, view back along the path of the whole universe, then
in the much broader bandwidth in time, back there in perspective scale
the superuniverse would be ought but a tiny pin point unimaginably hot
dot, in the scaling shift between here (the whole universe), and the
superuniverse. If you could look back beyond the beginning of our
time you would see behind, the beginning a huge expanse of
mansions and artifacts made of properties, the
huge view looming vast behind the rear
wall of time. In that the 3d
empirical view has the
whole universe in
scale, when
looking
back along
the time line
the superuniverse is
a tiny superdense hot spot. Look
at it closer and it will open up into a true
superuniverse in behind the timewall, of mind boggling stature.
In this regard
the superuniverse view
is not a question of how far back,
but in what perceptual plane it is viewed in.
Here at earth, or the solar system, or even the galaxy,
the view-width (you) is marginal (hardly more than us a pea
shot from a pea shooter opening) in comparison to the view width
of the superuniverse when seen with you back near the origin of time.
Going back along the time line, that is a totally different kind of perception
than is distance back, in that the bandwidth of the whole universe is
the channel for looking back in time and much wider results in what
seems a much smaller superuniverse in scale. So, there is distance
scale, related to empirical - and to bandwidth (timewidth) used
to look back in time - and perception scale going back, Go,
figure it out. Be pleased you have some more cosmic
physics to work with to help you out of the
conundrums as to why we are here,
who are we to begin with, and
where are we going to go.
Thus androgyn wrote,
smoting each
word with
nothing
more
than
a mighty
dotting of an
'i' and crossing of
a 't' signalling deed done,
for each word, the same simplicity
you and I use to write messages using words.
So wrote
surgeon, trying
to rewrite androgyn's
message for mass consumption
by the public in the republic, some
of surgeon's words making it into the
subterranean underground causing a few
extra loud hurrumphs to erupt in a
few bulletin board's newsrooms
forums, fortunately only a
few grumpy hurrumphs
could be heard,
most from
the same
hurrumphers
who liked sharing
their hurrumphs more than
they like sharing their intelligence.
The most hurrumphy seems to be by added remark
by surgeon somewhere in a memo, that the time line of
this universe curves back in distance in a gentle rightward
arc curving to the left into the source at the beginning. Our
entry into outer timespace is at about the 11 o'clock position
if the curve was re-oriented to lay flat like a clock face, the
11 oclock position is where the superuniverse sits. From it
starting to the right emerges our time line, (it can be
seen as a string of narrow bandwidth for instance
just the earth). Our timeline continues arcing
around through the right then crossing from
right to left when right in front of our
eyes, then it has moved just a short
distance further on, hardly more
than several minutes. The
unseen rest of the time
line circles around
curving left and
around right,
when back
at the
source
the time
line will
be displaced to
the left, by a measurable
increase in broadened bandwidth with
the main universe atom on the far left side of
the bandwidth. The difference between the original narrow
timeline and broadened finish arriving back at source is a measure
of this universe's actual evolution from the time of its creation
when first emerging from the superuniverse. "Hurrumph, hurrumph
indeed hurrumph hurrumph did you get hurrumphtheloudest clued
up for the conference call so we three can hurrumph together".
Surgeon appended the memo to add - when a timeline is started everything is recorded, for instance the timeline of the earth includes all of its population, including physical and spiritual all the way back to the beginning of earth, obviously beings pass back and forth between planets, and different star systems, and their timelines - all the beings crisscrossing, produce secondary timeline wave harmonics, these are the cross harmonics which contain fine and ultra fine detail, in an exact analogous model to cross harmonics which produce 3D presence in loudspeaker systems. "Hurrumph. Indeed what. Hurrumph stereo? Indeed?" Unfortunately the vision surgeon had was so vast, so replete with energy principles, it can hardly be put into words, this is where one picture takes thousands of words to try and detail and no matter how skillfully the words it can never do work that one picture can, communicating cosmic truths in Reality. So wrote androgyn, trying to keep track of the many slip shod rotators and slip stream evaders who keep cropping up whenever anything NEW is added to a bulletin board in the republic, as well as, of course, enhancing the odds of those who light up and respond to any good signals'. 'You should have seen it everybody laughed two guys squaring off deciding who amongst anyone they knew was more right there as a real man, so decided to settle it once and for all by firing at each other, the one who didn't get riddled with a first hit wins. Already sniffing the arrival of an upcoming situation a crowd has gathered around just as the two begin firing, miS.. Mis.. miS... Mis..miS and so on, back and forth, these guns so lightweight so fully loaded they looked like gloves because they were gloves, then the racket stopped, the two turned standing, guns limp, everybody laughed so harRRD'. Oweeee extrahere sang, oweeee I'm extra here listen to me all the time.
