Annular Or The Ring Of Fire Solar Eclipse Is Tomorrow

Through hardships, to the stars 🌌

My proudest shot.

By: @emspectrumimaging

Me and my favorite humans embarked on an adventure to moab to camp for 4 days. I came out here with an idea of what I wanted to do, see, and accomplish. I had no idea how blown away I would be, and how much I needed this. We spent the day hiking and swimming in the most beautiful watering hole I've ever seen, checked out the colorado river, and saw the most vivid sunset in the middle of a giant Arch. All smiles, awestruck by the beauty of it all. Once nightfall rolled around, we packed up a bunch of gear and went back to the arches for some astrophotography under the Arches, a bucket list I've had for sooo long. The experience was so surreal, we had the entire park to ourselves and stayed till 4AM because it was just SO FUCKIN FUN AND BEAUTIFUL. Incredibly grateful to have the greatest people in my life who are always down to pack up and venture out into the unknown. Y'all support my crazy visions and I'll love you forever for that.

Perfectly timed for Halloween, NASA is showing off a remarkable image of a ‘ghost nebula’ captured by the Hubble Space Telescope.

GLOBAL VIEW OF VENUS IN ULTRAVIOLET FROM AKATSUKI

A false-color image using two ultraviolet channels from Akatsuki's UVI camera at 283 nm and 365 nm distinguishes different components of the Venusian atmosphere.

VENUS' COUPLED DYNAMICS AND SULFUR CHEMISTRY FROM AKATSUKI, JULY 23, 2016

A false-color image using two ultraviolet channels from Akatsuki's UVI camera. Venus' cloud dynamics are just as complex as Earth's.

Note : Akatsuki is a Japanese mission launched in 2010 to orbit Venus (which it failed the first time) but successfully entered Venus' orbit on December the 7th, 2015.

EQUATORIAL REGION OF VENUS FROM AKATSUKI

Images acquired during orbit number 13 of the Japanese probe Akatsuki show an incredible amount of detail on the equatorial, tropical, and extra-tropical clouds of the planet

VENUS IN INFRARED FROM AKATSUKI: CLOUD WAVE

This view of Venus was acquired by the Japanese Akatsuki spacecraft's IR2 camera, which observes—among other things—the "warmth" of the planet's atmosphere on its nocturnal side.

Our sun is entering into a sleepy state of inactivity— a recurring phenomenon known as Solar Minimum.

A period of minimal solar activity, during which the surface solar movement diminishes, resulting in a trough in solar eruptions and coronal mass ejections (CME) activities. Though it is a period of (relative) calm for the otherwise seething ball of energy, it doesn't hold any consequence(s) for us, as Earthlings. Sun, as we know it, will remain the same.
