Unclassified Moroccan chondrite, polished slice (15 g). Bright specks are likely Fe–Ni metal. The pale ~6 mm oval is possibly a macrochondrule or a clast.

“most of the terrain east of Kuiper, toward the limb (edge) of the planet, the departing images are the first spacecraft views of that portion of Mercury’s surface. A striking characteristic of this newly imaged area is the large pattern of rays that extend from the northern region of Mercury to regions south of Kuiper.”

12-01-28 05-36-13 I am glad I got up early this morning, the seeing was mushy for Mars but steadied up a bit for Saturn. You can see the northern polar region in this image. Good to see the rings open again too.

Coming around from the western limb sunspot 1596 is a very complex structure with bridges and a large trailing group of smaller spots which makes it more appropriately named as sunspot region 1596. The granulation of the Sun around this spot is very clear compared to other areas.. Taken with a DMK21AU618 camer and IR filter.

Taken from my back yard on a tripod-mounted Canon PowerShot S5IS. I had to scale the 3 images in the panorama down to minimize the star movement over the 2 minute exposures, but it is still fairly evident. I must figure out someday how to take shorter exposures and stack them. Planetary and lunar image stacking seems a lot easier than this!
