Open this photo up and look for the small, white dot just left of centre.
It looks like Venus, shining brightly in the twilight sky.
But it's us.
It's Earth.
From Mars.

Frost Covered Gullies of the Red Planet
This image was acquired during the winter in 2007, which explains the abundant frost seen throughout the image. The frost is likely water frost, as opposed to carbon dioxide.

A bronze Age hoard found in Ravensburg, consisting of 24 spiral bracelets made of copper. Dating 1900-1600 BC. Spiral braclets such as these were standardized in size and weight in many parts of Europe. They were presumably used as a form of currency.

I posted my favorite mushroom photo I’ve ever taken (and I’ve taken thousands!) when I first joined, but I didn’t know about #fungifriends yet, so I’m reposting it. Waxcap. #naturephotography #forestfloor

Mars is a colourful planet part 73...
Here is part of Oxia Planum (landing site for ExoMars Rosalind Franklin rover) seen by CTX (1 band) and CaSSIS (4 bands) cameras.
The image is 'false colour', as it is not how our eyes would see it. But the colour is really useful as a proxy for composition.

Ukraine claimed Russia used an intercontinental ballistic missile in a strike on the city of Dnipro on Thursday, which would have represented a significant escalation in its assaults. Western officials said an ICBM was not used.

Pretty chuffed! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of our RMO exhibition Bronze Age. Fires 🔥 of Change!! by SStarckx in De Standaard (Belgian newspaper). Europa was al verbonden in de bronstijd, met culturele uitwisseling van de poolcirkel tot de Sahara

Europa was al verbonden in de bronstijd, met culturele uitwisseling van de poolcirkel tot de Sahara
Officieel leefden de bronstijd-Europeanen nog in de prehistorie, want een schrift was er nog niet. Maar hun nalatenschap spreekt boekdelen. In een expo in Leiden schittert deze bijzondere, maar weinig bekende periode in onze geschiedenis als weleer.

Viking 1 lander launched on a 10-month journey to Mars Aug 20, 1975.
Viking was NASA’s first lander to carry instruments capable of doing chemical or physical analysis.
Viking conducted experiments on the soil and took photographs while it was on the surface of Mars, then sent the data back
