Like Rebecca, James, though he’s different in every story and isn’t the main character, felt like the center of everything.Īs I’m sure you can tell, I adored this book, and everything else Brian Selznick has created! I loved the fact that we never discover the narrators name, a nod to Daphne du Maurier’s “Rebecca” which I greatly love! Then there’s the recurrence of the name “James,” which I felt added such soul and heart to the book as a whole. I knew it wasn’t a fluid story, yet it oddly felt like it was. Each story was different but, in a strange way, they all felt connected somehow. That was absolutely not the case with this brilliant collection. I’ve read quite a few short story collections, and I tend to have a hard time connecting with them. If only I could turn back Hugo’s big Parisian clock and read this book, and all of his others, for the first time again! Reading this book was an absolute pleasure, but I must say I’m devastated by the fact that it’s over. I’ve grown with his books, and that’s something I’ll always treasure.Įvery time I read a Brian Selznick book, I can feel my 9 year old self jumping for joy in my mind and in my heart. Now at the age of 23, I still feel like I have a friend in Brian Selznick. Reading this book was an absolute pleasure, but I must say I’m devastated by the fact that it’s ov I’ve had a friend in Brian Selznick since I was the age of 9, when I discovered his awe inspiring book titled “The Invention of Hugo Cabret.” Every time I read a Brian Selznick book, I can feel my 9 year old self jumping for joy in my mind and in my heart. I’ve grown with his books, and that’s something I’ll always treasure. Not just that, astronomers believe that the star that exploded, leading to the creation of Cas A, was about five times the mass of the Sun.I’ve had a friend in Brian Selznick since I was the age of 9, when I discovered his awe inspiring book titled “The Invention of Hugo Cabret.” Now at the age of 23, I still feel like I have a friend in Brian Selznick. In a separate 2017 note, NASA said that while the exact date of the explosion wasn't known, experts said that it occurred around the year 1680. NASA posted an almost similar picture of Cas A on its website in 2017 and wrote that it demonstrated an expanding shell of hot gas produced by the explosion. It further added that this hot gas was likely to have been created after material ejected from the supernova smashed into surrounding gas and dust at speeds of about 10 million miles per hour.Ī comparison of these images, NASA said, may help astronomers better determine if most of the dust in the supernova remnant came from the massive star before it exploded, or from the rapidly expanding supernova ejecta. "Green and Blue - X-ray data from NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory captures hot gasses at about 10 million degrees Celsius," NASA said in its post. The red colour - collected by the infrared data from the Spitzer Space Telescope - "reveals warm dust in the outer shell with temperatures of about 10 degrees Celsius," it said.Ī post shared by NASA optical data from NASA's Hubble telescope shows the delicate filamentary structure of warm gasses about 10,000 degrees Celsius, represented by the colour yellow in the shell. The different colours in the photograph show details provided by each observatory, offering astronomers a holistic view of Cas A, NASA wrote. "This 300-year-old remnant created by the supernova explosion of a massive star is located about 11,000 light-years away from Earth," the agency said and then explained what the different colours in the picture represent. In its post, NASA said that it was a composite of images taken from three of its observatories. The photograph features what looks like a huge bubble of multiple colours. The picture, according to NASA, shows Cas A in "full glory". The space agency said that Cas A is the remnant of a massive star that exploded about 300 years ago. In its Sunday post on Instagram, NASA shared a picture of Cassiopeia A (Cas A), describing it as a kaleidoscope - a constantly changing pattern - of colour. NASA shares captivating pictures of and from space on its social media platforms and everyone, especially the aspiring astronauts among them, eagerly wait for its next post.
