Hey guys. I've been meaning to start a thread where we can gather great web learning resources, but sleuth already beat me to it, so I just made her thread a sticky. Thanks sleuth.

Post all of the sites you can think of here, and I'll eventually go through and organize them.

When you post a site, please type above it what category it belongs in. My next post will show you how to do this.

I didn't know where to put this beauty.

CATS EYE
One of the most remarkable planetary nebula, NGC 6543 is the remnant of a dying star. Also known as the Cat's Eye Nebula, its eerie halo and filaments are material that the central star cast off thousands of years ago, according to astronomers. This color-enhanced image, which depicts nitrogen in reds and oxygen as greens and blues, comes from data from the Nordic Optical Telescope in the Canary Islands.
