#Saturn last night from my garden. For a bit of a fun I tried to replicate the view at the eyepiece as closely as possible. With the "HDR" nature of human eyesight, the major moons become visible. Due to the scope's mirror system, the orientation of the planet is also flipped.

Iridescent clouds are a diffraction phenomenon caused by small water droplets or small ice crystals individually scattering light. They often occur on lenticular clouds on top of a cumulonimbus, called pileus [read more: buff.ly/3D2AyTl]

The Sphere at The Venetian Resort in Paradise, Nevada, has an exosphere made of LED light panels which is visible from several miles away. It's being tested in these days and it's quite stunning [read more: buff.ly/3PEa8ii]

Wake up, babe. @NASAWebb dropped a new infrared image of Saturn. On June 25, the space telescope detected the planet’s faint moons and looked at its icy rings. Methane gas in Saturn’s atmosphere absorbs light, so it appears darker here. go.nasa.gov/3r97xD0

Today, the Moon passed in front of Jupiter. Here's a couple of images and a video of the event. #Jupiter #moon #occultation

I have never seen the skies more colorful and alive than two nights ago - truly an insane experience under the aurora.

Airplane wings aren't some rigid chunks of metal: in fact, they probably have a bit more flex than you'd expect. This is the behavior of a Boeing 747's wing in a turbulence. It can move 6m up and down safely.
