Colorful chairs strewn here and elsewhere in Harvard Yard "to make the Yard a more accessible and engaging common space for the [Harvard] community." (Not utilized, though, on a rainy day like this one.)

From Space: 1999; this diecast model of the Eagle was photographed and superimposed over a picture of the moon.

one of japanese space rocket engine made in the city where I
live.
There is the model that same size as the japanese space rocket in
the center of my city.
that's a model, not real.
... I think it's a stupid monument :D
The James Webb Space Telescope has detected carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18 b, a potentially habitable world 8.6 times as massive as Earth. An abundance of carbon dioxide and methane (along with a shortage of ammonia) is intriguing to astronomers: It supports the idea that this planet may have a water ocean underneath a hydrogen-rich atmosphere.
Webb also hinted at a detection of dimethyl sulphide (DMS) on K2-18 b. On Earth, this molecule is only produced by microbial life. Because the detection needs to be confirmed, the team plans to follow up and look for additional evidence of biological activity on the planet.
K2-18 b orbits the cool dwarf star K2-18 in the habitable zone (where conditions are right for liquid water to exist) and lies about 120 light-years from Earth. While K2-18 b is in the habitable zone, that does not necessarily mean it can support life. For instance, it may have a hostile environment due to its active star. Its ocean may also be too hot to be habitable. More: www.nasa.gov/goddard/2023/webb-discovers-methane-carbon-d...
This illustration shows what exoplanet K2-18 b could look like based on science data. The exoplanet K2-18 c is shown between K2-18 b and its star.

Image description: Artist illustration (as labeled in the upper left corner) of a planet and its cool red dwarf star. In the foreground on the right is the planet, which fills most of the frame. The planet is various shades of blue, with wisps of white scattered throughout. The left edge of the planet (the side facing the star) is lit, while the rest is in shadow. In the background at the lower left is the star, which appears smaller. The star has a bright red glow. Also in the background is another planet, which appears as a small crescent. The black background of space is speckled with a few small stars.

Following the classic Lego method of having detachable parts to the spaceship and vehicles inside etc.
From the inside of Ferrari World arena. Its a huge structure made up with the help of Space Frame. Gigantic heights and beautiful curves!
A few more of "Prince" Albert getting in on Daisy's act a couple of weeks ago. Personal space? What's that? 😉
Taken from a distance of over 1.5 million miles, this is a color-composite image of Saturn made by combining raw RGB spectral data captured on September 10, 2010 by the Cassini spacecraft. I love the cool, pale blues, barely-perceptable sea greens and warm sandy tans that tint the separate ascending and descending latitudes of the ringed planet, their soft shades belying the storm-tossed turbulence of its gusty atmosphere.

This is a wonderful replica of the space helmet from 2001: A Space Odyssey. I have wanted one of these ever since I saw the movie as a young boy. It’s one of the most recognizable helmets in film history. The color is right, the curves are right and the milled aluminum collar sends this over the top. This replica was made by PredictaMike. He is one of the best makers of replicas out there. If you are interested in his work you will find him in my contact list.
SpaceEngine - A free space simulation program that lets you explore the universe in three dimensions, from planet Earth to the most distant galaxies. Areas of the known universe are represented using actual astronomical data, while regions uncharted by astronomy are generated procedurally. Millions of galaxies, trillions of stars, countless planets - all available for exploration. You can land any planet, moon or asteroid and watch alien landscapes and celestial phenomena. You can even pilot starships and atmospheric shuttles.
To travel through space is always one of my vain hopes.This is my space shuttle model which I bought last year.

Just how many galaxies exist here ... how many are not even there anymore ... how many ... aww forget it
ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer analyses samples from monitoring on Station. He posted this image to his social channels on 27 January with the caption:
"Astronauts aren't the only ones living on the International Space Station. We've been swabbing surfaces CSI New York-style to see how many fungi and bacteria also call it home. Actually, we do quite a bit of testing and analysis up here. Kayla Barron and Raja Chari took samples of air that I analysed after they were exposed to agar and incubated for a couple of days at 22-23 °C. We also take samples of drinking water, recycled water and condensate and measure noise, trace gas contamination and more – it's a real living lab. As the Station's getting older and we're living up here for 6-12 months at a time, regular monitoring is important to keep us safe and healthy. It also allows scientists to study which microbes grow in such a unique closed environment."
