'Purple Rain'
Earth's atmosphere revealed by a Himawari satellite study of water vapor in the infrared, an extended look at the turmoil in the water-filled skies of planet Earth.
Each minute covers one day.
Each shot covers one month.
The 7h15m40s 4K video is not looped.

Just look at this gorgeous portrait of celestial creation.
JWST trained its infrared vision on one tiny patch in the Orion Nebula. There, it saw a wild collage of collapsing clouds, protostars, jets, shockwaves, and dark disks where new planets are forming. 🔭🧪

Two telescopes, two epochs, the same nebula. You might have to stare for a little bit to fully appreciate all the movement going. Apologies to any faint stars who got deleted. I tried to remove the NICMOS PSFs from the Hubble view (which is lower resolution/blurrier)

The Scalloped Terrain of Utopia Planitia
This image footprint is in a region of abundant scalloped depressions. Their formation most likely involves development of oval- to scalloped-shaped depressions that may coalesce together.

I PAINTED TODAY!
just for an hour because I'm having Kim's windshield replaced but still...
Time away makes me think the main part is done. Just the center core to finish. Probably.
This is absolutely astonishing - it's rare in astronomy to see so much change on a human timescale, but this really shows how dynamic the gas and dust around a young star can be. Seeing the shadows from the inner regions cast out onto the outer spiral arms, amazing!
Back on Mars, here's some rocks that have been the target of the Mars Perseverance Rover in the last few sols.

Taken with our VLT over a period of four years, these images show the rotating disc of gas & dust around the young star AB Aurigae.
Features like “twists” signal the places where #exoplanets could be forming 🪐
