Survived seven years in #space. Took samples from a surface that was nothing like what they expected. Handled 32g deceleration and temperatures as high as those on the surface of the sun. And made it safely home.
That's a truly epic mission right there -- and it continues, too: after dropping off their priceless sample as casually as I drop off dry cleaning, they're zooming to another asteroid (Apophis) next.

Interpolated video of #MarsHelicopter Flight 57. Towards the end of the video the Heli turned to the side to image a science target. Then it autonomously selected a landing spot on a nearby sand ripple.
Ingenuity has a history of landing on sand ripples. Their smooth surface appears safe to the hazard avoidance algorithm. However, this time it also decided to land close to nearby rocks 😬

NASA panel suggests agency appoint a director of #UAP research and take a lead role in studying the issue of unidentified objects in air & space.
This is pretty big IMO. NASA has assiduously avoided this topic since its founding.
Harder and harder for the science community to wave this issue away as nothing but birds and balloons.
Noted astrophysicist David Spergel led the group that made the recommendations.

interesting research update on Kuiper Belt - a hidden planet with a mass about 1.5–3 times that of Earth could be lurking at the edge of the solar system, according to computer simulations done by researchers in Japan.

In 2017 a man, after some thought, had a simple but genius idea and took a camera on a Southwest flight from Portland, Oregon to St. Louis and captured one of the most breathtaking images of all time.
Jon Carmichael's "108" is probably my favorite #eclipse image and provokes introspection every time I see it.
Even in low orbit these people find the way to leave their marks.

Supernova 1987A lit up Earth's skies 36 years ago. Now JWST has provided an extreme close-up of the chaos it unleashed. Heavy elements ejected by the star will help seed the next generation of stars and planets. https://webbtelescope.org/contents/news-releases/2023/news-2023-136

1/ The pulsar J1023 (a dense and rapidly spinning stellar corpse) started feeding off a companion star a few years ago. But since then it has been behaving oddly!
Sometimes the pulsar gives off bright X-ray, UV and visible light, and other times it emits more radio waves, switching between these two states every few seconds/minutes.
A new result involving several telescopes worldwide has provided new clues:

ESA just released some beautiful #JWST images of M51, the Whirlpool Galaxy.
In the near-infrared image, dark red features trace the filamentary warm dust, while colors of red, orange, and yellow show gas ionized by recently formed star clusters.
In the mid-infrared image, dust grains and molecules glow, heated by starlight. Empty cavities and bright filaments alternate, giving the impression of ripples propagating from the spiral arms.
