Some cosmic beauties
Remember : "Stars you seeing today may be dead million years back "
For example, light from the Andromeda galaxy (M31), the nearest large galaxy takes about 2.5 million years to reach us, so we are seeing what it looked like 2.5 million years ago.
My AI info said " Around 2.5 million years ago, several human ancestor species lived, including Australopithecus garhi and Homo habilis. This period also saw the emergence of the Homo genus from its australopithecine ancestors. Other species like Australopithecus africanus and an unnamed australopithecine species were also present "

Just the shell. One doesn't come across these very often. Usually found in the littoral zone near seaside observatories.

It is an interesting experience to see clouds from the other side. This is when we realize how huge they are and can generate lightening.

Lego Spaceship MOC: The Celestial Empress is a large nuclear pulse propelled spaceship designed specifically to take a contained colony to Alpha Centauri. The Nuclear warhead propulsion system is based on the Project Orion concept and will take this half million Earth ton vessel to .99.99 of the speed of light. It take a little over a year to reach maxim velocity, it will then cruise for a further 4.5 years before flipping over and using the same propulsion to decelerate for another year before reaching its destination of Alpha Centauri.
There is a transit system from the bow module to the cargo modules

Long exposure at the Leith Docks, it was a beautiful evening. When I saw this capture I was thinking of this tune www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r58xH3YbBk hence the title

A fun celestial meeting this evening. The Waning Gibbous Moon, at 94% full, is in the middle of the constellation Gemini. I took this with my iP16Pro at 5x zoom. You have the bright moon. Then below and to the right, you have Jupiter (with a good pair of binoculars, you can see its moon Io to its upper right). On the left you have two stars from Gemini, Castor, above left, and Pollux, lower left. It’s interesting to note that I’m also a Gemini 😁
From left to right: Haystack Rock, The omnipresent Moon, Venus, unknown star, and then the shy, but extremely large Jupiter. All hanging out at our planet's largest ocean. All this without a tripod and on ISO 100 because I'm a big dummy and forgot about my ISO settings at the end of a very long, but awesome day. This was Saturday's sunset, on the one and only Cannon Beach.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my fine Flickr friends.
Baking pies for our family's Thanksgiving dinner is a tradition I truly love. My family has come to expect the pies, so there's no getting out of it now! LOL As I was piling the homemade apple filling (enhanced with pears, dried cranberries and pecans) into the pastry crust, it made me feel thankful for so many things in my life. One of my greatest joys is sharing these pies with family and friends. . . please, help yourself.
