Enjoy Percy's selfie in this immersive 360° VR app:

It includes a few extra images that were lagging behind, completing the picture of the rim of Jezero Crater behind the rover.

No sé cómo, de repente, ahora somos el ejemplo de perfección de todo y para todos.

Así es cómo se sentían los noruegos hasta hace poco

Puesta en H-alpha
En marzo y en septiembre, veo desde casa como el Sol se pone tras el INTA.
Lo 'pillé' con el telescopio solar, pero sumado a la baja altitud, la turbulencia y esas nubes, no salió como deseaba.
Seguiré intentándolo, porque a veces el camino es más interesante que el destino.

#BREAKING: Israel just bombed right next to the ancient temple of Baalbek, a UNESCO listed site in Lebanon’s Bekaa valley

When ISIS bombed Roman temples in Palmyra, Syria, the west launched an international coalition that send them fleeing to the ends of the Earth

🌗 The Last Quarter Moon occurs on March 11th at 9:40 UT (now) marking the onset of moonless evening skies. This is an ideal time for stargazing over the next week or so. Download The Evening Sky Map (PDF) from skymaps.com/tesm/ and go outside to explore the Universe! 🔭

Waning gibbous Moon, March 11th 2026 at 1.30am. Early morning Moons are especially beautiful, with the dark lunar seas being prominent. The bright crater near the centre is Copernicus, 93 kilometres across and 3.8 kilometres deep. #astrophotography

Writing as Thinking The other day I was informed that wordpress has an "AI Tool" which can write blog posts for me. I suspect most people think writing a blog is a waste of time, and that is even more the case if you get AI to write posts for you. I write a blog for many reasons apart from that after 17 years it has become a habit.

¿Ursula Von der Leyen ya ha dimitido? ¿O al menos se ha disculpado?

In this new reality, the EU must defend the rules-based international order. Violations of international law must not be accepted, human rights violations must not be tolerated.

Freedom and human rights cannot be achieved through bombs. Only international law upholds them.

You may remember a series of Peanuts comic strips that ran from March 10 to March 15, 1969, in which Snoopy becomes the first beagle to land on the moon (beating his namesake lunar module there by a couple of months). #Apollo10 May, 1969

¡La estación óptica terrestre de SSC Space en Chile está lista para conectarse al espacio con láseres!
Con el apoyo de Optical and quantum communications – ScyLight de @esa.int, es un paso concreto hacia comunicaciones láser más amplias.

¡Comunicaciones con satélites seguras, rápidas y cool😎!

NASA administrator talks to Science about studying the Moon, Mars—and Earth Jared Isaacman says agency may accelerate lunar science program and could tackle a new Mars mission in 2028

My latest: in an interview with @science.org, new NASA administrator Jared Isaacman promises a big uptick in lunar robotic missions, another potential Mars 2028 mission beyond comms, and continued support for earth science observation.

(Sorry astro and helio folks, time went fast.)

As a longtime advocate for a US-led ice giant mission, I’m simultaneously disappointed (from a US perspective) and delighted (from a basic science perspective)

Chart showing the moon moving past 14 small dots representing the stars of Scorpius.

Hi stargazers! Tomorrow morning, the waning gibbous #moon will be near red #Antares. It’s the brightest star in the constellation of #Scorpius the Scorpion. Can you spot 3 moderately bright stars known as the Crown of Scorpius as well? 🌖🌌🔭

Donald has killed a geriatric mass murdering fundamentalist & replaced him with a younger and more extreme version, all while saving the Russian war machine by spiking the oil price.

Nice not to be the only master strategist.

Final laps at the LHC The final laps before the major overhaul: CERN’s accelerator operators have just fired the starting pistol for the last run of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). At the end of June, four years of work w...

With proton collisions at 13.6 TeV, this season is special not only because it begins earlier than usual, but also because it will be the last time the LHC operates in its current form. After this run, the LHC will be shut down for four years, returning in 2030 as the #HiLumiLHC.
