Space Station's EarthKAM Sees the Grand Canyon - From NASA Marshall Space Flight Center - https://flic.kr/p/UijV5M
On April 3, 2017, the student-controlled EarthKAM camera aboard the International Space Station captured this photograph of a favorite target -- the Grand Canyon -- from low Earth orbit. The camera has been aboard the orbiting outpost since the first space station expedition began in November 2000 and supports approximately four missions annually. Mission 58 begins in fall 2017, and interested middle school students and teachers can sign up at the EarthKAM website. The Sally Ride Earth Knowledge Acquired by Middle School Students (Sally Ride EarthKAM) program provides a unique educational opportunity for thousands of students multiple times a year. EarthKAM is an international award-winning education program, allowing students to photograph and analyze our planet from the perspective of the International Space Station. Using the Internet, students control a special digital camera on the orbiting laboratory to photograph Earth's coastlines, mountain ranges and other interesting geographical topography.

Another piece in my studio sale: 20% reduction on all available work until Christmas www.artachart.com Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend! 🙂
Semi abstract coastal painting, looking down the estuary to the sea. Bright light breaking through dark clouds, swirling water and curved estuary walls with exposed sand, to suggest low tide. Limited palette of raw umber, Payne’s grey, new gamboge and warm white.

First NAC Image Obtained in Mercury Orbit - From Goddard Space Flight Center - https://flic.kr/p/9uKkPX
NASA image acquired: March 29, 2011 This is the first image of Mercury taken from orbit with MESSENGER’s Narrow Angle Camera (NAC). MESSENGER’s camera system, the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS), has two cameras: the Narrow Angle Camera and the Wide Angle Camera (WAC). Comparison of this image with MESSENGER’s first WAC image of the same region shows the substantial difference between the fields of view of the two cameras. At 1.5°, the field of view of the NAC is seven times smaller than the 10.5° field of view of the WAC. This image was taken using MDIS’s pivot. MDIS is mounted on a pivoting platform and is the only instrument in MESSENGER’s payload capable of movement independent of the spacecraft. The other instruments are fixed in place, and most point down the spacecraft’s boresight at all times, relying solely on the guidance and control system for pointing. The 90° range of motion of the pivot gives MDIS a much-needed extra degree of freedom, allowing MDIS to image the planet’s surface at times when spacecraft geometry would normally prevent it from doing so. The pivot also gives MDIS additional imaging opportunities by allowing it to view more of the surface than that at which the boresight-aligned instruments are pointed at any given time. On March 17, 2011 (March 18, 2011, UTC), MESSENGER became the first spacecraft ever to orbit the planet Mercury. The mission is currently in the commissioning phase, during which spacecraft and instrument performance are ...

Crescent Saturn and Titan - From Val Klavans (valklavans.bsky.social) - https://flic.kr/p/fv6rVE
On August 11, 2013 Cassini's camera system, the Imaging Science Subsystem, captured a set of images of Saturn and Titan. This is a natural color composite of three images ISS snapped in red, green, and blue filters. Saturn and Titan appear as crescents here because Cassini was almost completely behind the worlds as they faced the Sun. These images were taken on August 11, 2013 and received on Earth August 14, 2013. The camera was pointing toward SATURN at approximately 1,065,949 miles (1,715,478 kilometers) away, and the images were taken using the red, green, and blue filters.
