On Friday, June 12, a spectacular planetary alignment took place just after sunset:
• Venus (top)
• Jupiter (below Venus — and if you zoom in on the photo, you can spot two of its moons: Ganymede and Callisto)
• Mercury (bottom)
• Earth 😉
Photographed in the Negev Desert.
50mm
The crystal sphere - Valued for seeing the future but I'm happy seeing the present. The glass ball is like a converging lens giving a lovely distortion with all lines pointing to the center. Like being in the middle of a snow globe or rather sun globe. The image is flipped so the scene in the ball is right side up, feels better this way.

As I was picking flowers, I noticed a tunnel hidden in the tall shadows. Translucent rays of grain nourishing my iris.
I had to plunge my hand into it to feel what stayed behind.
The shadows swallowed it to reappear floating in the emptiness surrounding a distant planet.
A vase, fingerprints, in the cooler.
50mm Makro Planar mounted on R5.
I tried my best to include as many as all in the photo, but both are not in the picture. Jupiter is too low, and Saturn is too high. We can see the Mercury, Waning Crescent Moon, Mars, and Uranus.
Note: For August 11–12, 2026, the forecast calls for Morning clouds.

I wish I had set the shutter speed at 1/80 sec or faster.
The rim of a large crater, with some smaller craters within. I originally planned to have this rim be at one end of my base, with the entire base inside the crater. But now I'm thinking of building parts of it outside, e.g. I have a few Windtraps that would make sense to have on the rim, to pick up the maximum amount of wind. Also, I have a force field barrier, that would make more sense to have on the outside than on the inside of the crater...

This 360-degree panorama was acquired by the Mast Camera (Mastcam) on NASA's Curiosity Mars rover while the rover was in an area called "Murray Buttes" on lower Mount Sharp, one of the most scenic landscapes yet visited by any Mars rover.
The view stitches together many individual images taken by Mastcam's left-eye camera on Sept. 4, 2016, during the 1,451st Martian day, or sol, of the mission. North is at both ends and south is in the center. The rover's location when it recorded this scene was the site it reached in its Sol 1448 drive. (See map at mars.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/images/?ImageID=8015.)
The dark, flat-topped mesa near the center of the scene rises to about 39 feet (about 12 meters) above the surrounding plain. From the rover's position, the top of this mesa is about 131 feet (about 40 meters) away, and the beginning of the debris apron at the base of the mesa is about 98 feet (about 30 meters) away.
In the left half of the image, the dark butte that appears largest sits eastward from the rover and about 33 feet (about 10 meters) high. From the rover's position, the top of this butte is about 85 feet (about 26 meters) away, and the beginning of the debris apron at its base is about 33 feet (about 10 meters) away. An upper portion of Mount Sharp appears on the horizon to the right of it.
The relatively flat foreground is part of a geological layer called the Murray formation, which includes lakebed mud deposits. The buttes and mesas rising above this surface are eroded remnants of ancient sandstone that originated when winds deposited sand after lower Mount Sharp had formed. They are capped by material that is relatively resistant to erosion, just as is the case with many similarly shaped buttes and mesas on Earth. The area's informal naming honors Bruce Murray (1931-2013), a Caltech planetary scientist and director of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California.
The scene is presented with a color adjustment that approximates white balancing, to resemble how the rocks and sand would appear under daytime lighting conditions on Earth.

The planetary eruption is really one of those old lightning balls found in a clean up of a kid's wardrobe. It still works!!

what is it ? it is the top part of very small glass jam jar, filled with oil, water and red wine (mixed and left to settle) Looks a bit like a gas giant planet.

This is a tight crop of an image of the Weinberger planetary nebula. I captured the outstanding OIII data for the planetary nebula last night. It was interesting to see the levels of oxygen emission from the PN with the new data added. OIII x 14 x18 , Ha 17x 1800 and SII 17x 1800. This would make an excellent target for longer focal length optics. May be next time round.
The alignment of Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and the Moon was photographed on the evening of December 12, 2021. A Canon 80D and a Canon 8-15 mm f/4L fisheye lens was used to capture the wide angle scene.

It's FebRovery again, my favourite themed building month.
So let's begin with a modification of set 10497 (or as I like to call it, the "UCS Galaxy Explorer") into a rover.
As far as names go, "Planetary Explorer" was the obvious and only choice. The rear cargo compartment contains a small skimmer-type vehicle to mirror the rover carried by the original
