🔭🧪 This is an infrared image from NASA's NEOWISE (bit.ly/3OzQger) and there are 100s of baby stars here. The red dots lined up in clumps horizontally across the middle/left are a little younger than the ~spherical cluster blowing a bubble on the right. (OA journal article: bit.ly/4gfc6jd)

🔭🧪 You can see this original Mars image yourself (and THAT is what makes me happy) at Caltech for a few more weeks as part of PST ART: Art and Science Collide. pst.art/en/exhibitio...
Specifically, it's in the Powers of Ten exhibit library.caltech.edu/crossing-ove... 5/5

🔭🧪 But they did a pretty good job -- here the hand-colored Mars image is on the left and the actual Mariner image that finally processed on the right. Not too bad! 4/5

🔭🧪 It's a big color-by-number! (It turns out that's all your computer (or phone) is doing now to show you the stuff on your screen; it's just doing it fast and according to prescribed brightness levels in red, green, and blue layers.) 3/5

🔭🧪 So, they printed it out (on a dot matrix printer, because that's all they had then), stapled it to a bulletin board, and colored it in. 2/5

🔭🧪 Things that make me happy: This is the first image from Mars, taken July 1965. Why does it look like this? Because computers were slow and it was going to be hours before the computer processed it enough to make an image. The scientists and engineers were impatient. 1/5

This is the second paragraph of my most recent paper. I was ready to go to the mat for these phrases, but no one complained! The full-res version of that image is here www.spitzer.caltech.edu/image/sig16-... and it is both 'dramatic' and 'impressive' IMHO.
