Patrick Degrosse, engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, shows the guts of the ventilator that a team of NASA engineers designed in just over five weeks. The machine uses none of the parts used in traditional ventilators, so as not to compete for supply lines.

This illustration depicts the gaseous halo of the Andromeda galaxy if it could be seen with the naked eye. At a distance of 2.5 million light-years, the majestic spiral Andromeda galaxy is so close to us that it appears as a cigar-shaped smudge of light high in the autumn sky. If its gaseous halo could be seen with the naked eye, it would be about three times the width of the Big Dipper—easily the biggest feature on the nighttime sky.

The Quantum Systems Accelerator will optimize a wide range of advanced qubit technologies available on August 26. Berkeley Lab uses sophisticated dilution refrigerators to cool and operate superconducting quantum processor circuits.

Residual map of the recovered velocity parameter in the Southwest field of M33. The residual was calculated by taking the difference between the network's estimate and that of the ORCS fitting software.

California grows more tomatoes than any other state. Many of the areas where they have traditionally been grown, however, are predicted to become too warm even for this warm-season crop.

The star-forming nebula W51 is one of the largest "star factories" in the Milky Way galaxy. Interstellar dust blocks the visible light emitted by the region, but it is revealed by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope, which captures infrared light that can penetrate dust clouds.

TXS 0128+554, outlined in red here, is an elliptical galaxy located 500 million light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia.

The centre of quasar 3C279 emits flickering gamma radiation, which is characteristic of the phenomenon of magnetic reconnection.
