The Best Website Builders

TechWave by Fusion

Moving fast in the web development space, Microsoft has introduced both a website building tool for neophytes and the third major version of its MVC (Model View Controller) technology.

Web Matrix is "a new tool to make it easier for people to build websites," said Microsoft's Brian Goldfarb, director of web platform and tools. Geared for students and new developers, WebMatrix is a text-based tool for writing code.
The free tool supports ASP.Net and PHP development. You can write applications like a Facebook Like button or a Twitter search capability, you can also start from the beginning and design your own.

Web Matrix however lacks more specialized capabilities of Microsoft's Visual Studio IDE, such as debugging. "People get started with WebMatrix, and when and if they're ready, they can begin using Visual Studio to take advantage of more advanced features," Goldfarb said.
Developers can start with an open source application, such as WordPress, Joomla or DotNetNuke, and use WebMatrix to download and configure these applications. Also, tools are provided for building a website, including a web server, database and framework.

NASA - Amazing Views In Space

TechWave by Fusion

NGC 4038 and 4039
Amazing view of the Antennae Galaxies, taken by Alma radio telescope and Hubble space telescope.





------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Galaxy IC342
Also called the hidden galaxy, this spiral beauty is often hidden behind the Milky Way. New stars burst and form here about 10 million light years away in the constellation Camelopardalis. It's 62000 light years across. Beautiful




-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Soul Nebulas Heart Caught on Camera
NASA released this mosaic of the Soul Nebula. It is an open cluster of stars surrounded by dust and gas over 150 light years across and 6500 light years from Earth. In the constellation Cassiopeia.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Many well known objects can be seen in and near the violent Carina Nebula in this wide field image. In the bottom left is one of the  most impressive binary stars in the universe,
Eta Carinae, with the fameous keyhole Nebula just adjacent. The collection of bright young stars to the right is open star cluster Trumpler14.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




The new Hubble image of the Orion Nebula shows dense pillars of gas and dust that are likely home to young stars. 



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 



The Hubble Space Telescope has caught the most detailed view of the Crab nebula. This is one of the largest images ever assembled by the space based observatory.  



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This Picture of NGC 6334 or Cats Paw Nebula was created with the wide field imager instrument a La Silla Observatory in Chile.

Milky Way Imaging, Our Galaxies City Center


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


To celebrate the 21st anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers pointed Hubble's eye at an especially photogenic pair of interacting galaxies called Arp 273


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The infrared vision of NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope has revealed that the Sombrero galaxy is in fact two galaxies in one. It is a large elliptical galaxy (blue-green) with a thin disk galaxy (partly seen in red) embedded within.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Globular cluster Messier 70 experienced a core collapse in the past, meaning that even more stars squeeze into the object's core than on average. The brightness of the cluster increases steadily towards its center. Messier 70 orbits close to the center of the Milky Way, about 30 000 light-years away from the Solar System. Image released April 13, 2012.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Supernova 1987A occured in the Large Magellanic Cloud a galaxy only 160,000 lights years from Earth. The Brightest know SuperNova in 400 years.

The Hubble Space Telescope captures

The Hubble Space Telescopes striking image of curious panetary Nebula NGC 6210, which is located about 6500 light years from the constellation Hercules. Last Breath of a Dying Star.

         Monday april 9 2012: Planetary Nebula Abell 33 lies in the constellation of Hydra.
          Abell 383 has such heavy gravitational distortion that it may actually mirrior images in or around it. Distant Galaxies seen by Hubble and NASA.
