there where so many rock formations we encounter during our stay at Bandon bay, Oregon.....
I just want to send my congratulations to NASA for the remarkable mission to Pluto......they inspire all of us to have inquiring minds..... to always question; is there life, somewhere in our magnificent universe........................ dennis :))
The Head of Transportation Design for NASA's 2047 Pathfinder 4 mission was a huge fan of early 21st Century Space Opera movies...
Built for the Pimp Rey's Speeder contest.
for some reason or another NASA is prepared to spend billions hoping to find some signs of life far away, but no need to go far to find some life where you don't expect it.....NASA would be ecstatic with such a MARS shot....
OYEZ, OYEZ, LA NASA VOUS L'ANNONCE…
Suspense et excitation !
L'agence américaine préparait le spectacle depuis des jours et même des semaines en diffusant une bande-annonce digne d'un show hollywoodien pour préparer les spectateurs à une « simple » annonce de l'équipage d'Artemis II.
Bien entendu, il s'agit d'un SYMBOLE !
Les quatre astronautes seront les premiers depuis Apollo 17 à partir aussi loin autour de notre satellite naturel, et ils représentent pour la NASA un espoir renouvelé autant que l'un des grands points d'orgue d'un programme qui a mis plus d'une décennie à voir le jour.
Cette « nouvelle conquête lunaire » doit d'abord marquer les esprits et bénéficier de l'appui politique et du grand public … Eh oui !!!
D'où ce côté spectacle assumé !
L'ensemble des astronautes présents à Houston se trouvait sur scène, y compris ceux des pays partenaires en formation.
Il y avait aussi les dirigeants de la NASA et François-Philippe Champagne, le pétillant ministre canadien en charge du spatial dans le gouvernement en place.
En effet, cet équipage est bien composé de trois membres de la NASA et d'un Canadien. On retrouve donc Reid Wiseman (commandant), Victor Glover (pilote), Christina Koch (spécialiste de mission) et le Canadien Jeremy Hansen (spécialiste de mission) 😉
Bonne journée les artistes :D

HEAR, HEAR, NASA ANNOUNCES IT TO YOU...
Suspense and excitement!
The American agency had been preparing the show for days and even weeks by releasing a trailer worthy of a Hollywood show to prepare viewers for a "simple" announcement from the crew of Artemis II.
Of course, it is a symbol!
The four astronauts will be the first since Apollo 17 to travel this far around our natural satellite, and they represent renewed hope for NASA as much as one of the great culmination points of a program that has taken more than a decade to come.
This “new lunar conquest” must first mark the spirits and benefit from the political support and the general public… Yes!!!
Hence this assumed side of the show!
All the astronauts present in Houston were on stage, including those of the partner countries in training.
There were also the leaders of NASA and François-Philippe Champagne, the sparkling Canadian minister in charge of space in the government in place.
Indeed, this crew is indeed made up of three NASA members and a Canadian. So we find Reid Wiseman (commander), Victor Glover (pilot), Christina Koch (mission specialist) and Canadian Jeremy Hansen (mission specialist) 😉
Good day artists :D

A witch appears to be screaming out into space in this new image from NASA's Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE. The infrared portrait shows the Witch Head nebula, named after its resemblance to the profile of a wicked witch. Astronomers say the billowy clouds of the nebula, where baby stars are brewing, are being lit up by massive stars. Dust in the cloud is being hit with starlight, causing it to glow with infrared light, which was picked up by WISE's detectors.
The Witch Head nebula is estimated to be hundreds of light-years away in the Orion constellation, just off the famous hunter's knee.
WISE was recently "awakened" to hunt for asteroids in a program called NEOWISE. The reactivation came after the spacecraft was put into hibernation in 2011, when it completed two full scans of the sky, as planned.

I did not take these photos which came from the NASA website from Mexico during the eclipse April 8/24 . I stitched them together in Photoshop to demonstrate this magnificent event. I just wish I could have been there to see it. The next eclipses in North America are in 2044 and 2045 when I will be in my mid-nineties!!!

Many aurora appear green, but sometimes — as in this image from the International Space Station — other colors such as red can appear. The colors depend on which atoms are causing the splash of light seen in the aurora. In most cases, the light comes when a charged particle sweeps in from the solar wind and collides with an oxygen atom in Earth’s atmosphere. This produces a green photon, so most aurora appear green. However, lower-energy oxygen collisions as well as collisions with nitrogen atoms can produce red photons -- so sometimes aurora also show a red band as seen here.

By pushing NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope to its limits, an international team of astronomers has shattered the cosmic distance record by measuring the farthest galaxy ever seen in the universe. This surprisingly bright infant galaxy, named GN-z11, is seen as it was 13.4 billion years in the past, just 400 million years after the Big Bang. GN-z11 is located in the direction of the constellation of Ursa Major.

The Origins Spectral Interpretation Resource Identification Security -- Regolith Explorer spacecraft (OSIRIS-REx) will travel to a near-Earth asteroid, called Bennu, and bring a sample back to Earth for study. The mission will help scientists investigate how planets formed and how life began, as well as improve our understanding of asteroids that could impact Earth.
OSIRIS-REx is scheduled for launch in late 2016. As planned, the spacecraft will reach its asteroid target in 2018 and return a sample to Earth in 2023.

NASA image release September 25, 2012
Like photographers assembling a portfolio of best shots, astronomers have assembled a new, improved portrait of mankind's deepest-ever view of the universe.
Called the eXtreme Deep Field, or XDF, the photo was assembled by combining 10 years of NASA Hubble Space Telescope photographs taken of a patch of sky at the center of the original Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The XDF is a small fraction of the angular diameter of the full moon.
The Hubble Ultra Deep Field is an image of a small area of space in the constellation Fornax, created using Hubble Space Telescope data from 2003 and 2004. By collecting faint light over many hours of observation, it revealed thousands of galaxies, both nearby and very distant, making it the deepest image of the universe ever taken at that time.
The new full-color XDF image is even more sensitive, and contains about 5,500 galaxies even within its smaller field of view. The faintest galaxies are one ten-billionth the brightness of what the human eye can see.

This 747SP started life as Clipper Lindbergh in 1977 with PanAm, sold to United in 1986, retired from service in 1994, and in 1997 purchased by NASA as the next generation airborne telescope platform. Reconfigured at L3 Waco, and after ten years of major reconfiguration, flew as SOFIA for the first time in 2007. "Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy", SOFIA, 'NASA747' departs Palmdale on flight number 8 of observing cycle 9Q.
