HiPOD: Colorful Bedrock in the Central Uplift of an Impact Crater

This bedrock has greater compositional diversity than the surface layers, because they are from greater depths, older, jumbled, and altered, and very diverse.

HiPOD: Alluvial Fans in Mojave Crater

The landscape in this observation is pervasively eroded, right up to the tops of the ridges, with channels extending down into depositional fans much like alluvial fans in the Mojave Desert.

Astounding stream of stars caught escaping from nearby galaxy

The Vera Rubin Observatory's "First Look" observations weren't meant for science.

And yet, it revealed a surprising new stellar stream, 160,000 light-years long, escaping from a nearby galaxy.

Astounding stream of stars caught escaping from nearby galaxy
Stellar streams are faint trails of stars that appear to "stream" out of galaxies. A new one, escaping galaxy M61, may point to many others.

Arthur Sze, Comet Hyakutake
Arthur Sze, Comet Hyakutake Comet Hyakutake’s tail stretches for 360 million miles— in 1996, we saw Hyakutake through binoculars— the ion tail contains the time we saw bats emerge out of a cavern at dusk— in the cavern, we first heard stalactites dripping— first silence, then reverberating sound— our touch reverberates and makes a blossoming track— a comet’s nucleus emits X-rays and leaves tracks— two thousand miles away, you box up books and, in two days, will step through the invisible rays of an airport scanner— we write on invisible pages in an invisible book with invisible ink— in nature’s infinite book, we read a few pages— in the sky, we read the ion tracks from the orchard— the apple orchard where blossoms unfold, where we unfold— budding, the child who writes, “the puzzle comes to life”— elated, puzzled, shocked, dismayed, confident, loving: minutes to an hour— a minute, a pinhole lens through which light passes— Comet Hyakutake will not pass earth for another 100,000 years— no matter, ardor is here— and to the writer of fragments, each fragment is a whole—

In Skagen (Denmark) Peder Severin Krøyer focused on the landscape, local life, and community festivities. He was also captivated by the ‘blue hour’ and the effects of moonlight on Skagen beach or as here (1885) from the moors just north of the then village.

'Landscape with Rising Sun.' (1828) Joseph Gandy was seen as one of the great visionaries of the Romantic movement. As a watercolourist, he worked much in the same way as Constable and Turner; to many, he was the greatest illustrator of architecture in British history.
