The information is usually about Space facts and news, in particular about the creation of new content by SpaceInfo itself. This was the very first communication channel adopted by the Club when it was founded in April 2021.

The Book

The Art and Science of the Universe, is a book written by SpaceInfo Club and Arc Fortnight. It is divided into two main sections, one that shows the amazing images processed and filtered with a description of the source of the image itself and the process adopted to obtain that final result. The other one shows more into detail the general process of elaboration and process of an image, from when it is taken by the telescope (terrestrial or a Space telescope) to the final result, so that everybody can be able to understand the work behind each picture and try by her or himself.

Here is a brief abstract, which lets the reader understand the spirit that pushed the author to write the book:

«As detection technology improved, astronomy expanded to include non-visible radiation such as infra-red, ultra-violet, radio waves, x-rays right through to gamma rays. Each type of radiation brings with it, specific details about its source. Visible light can show us dust clouds inside nebulae while infra-red light can look through dust clouds to see normally invisible details behind the dust.

Today we live in an age where the massive amounts of data collected by numerous space-based and terrestrial telescopes is publicly available to all – both scientists and artists.
This book aims to explore the artistic aspects of the wealth of astronomical data collected by space-based telescopes like Hubble and the James Webb, from research grade observatories located on high mountain peaks in Chile and Spain, through to amateur astronomers like myself (Arc) with our modest equipment in our backyards under the dark skies of Australia.

But how can Science and Art meet together? What could be the result of this mix?»

«This is where the wheel turns full circle, the loop is closed, art and science join together to create visually stunning images as well as new scientific discoveries.»
