@neiltyson Assuming this would be intelligent alien life if it exists, wouldn’t their principles of morality and politics differ vastly from ours? @neiltyson

I pointed my telescope at the ISS from the hometown of ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer (Cosmic KISS).

I spent 27 days shooting over 2 million photos of the moon to capture how it dances in our sky. This is the most detailed “Lunation” I’ve ever captured. #astrophotography #space #opteam

[Thierry Legault @ThierryLegault]

I am virtually sure it's the most detailed ISS lunar transit to date 😊
I had to ride 250 km from home and find a remote place in the countryside between the blankets of fog, for this 1/2 second transit at 27000 km/h.

[NASA Webb Telescope @NASAWebb]

✨ Our NIRCam instrument's detectors saw their 1st photons of starlight! While #NASAWebb is not yet ready for science, this is the first of many steps to capture images that are at first unfocused, used to slowly fine-tune the optics: https://t.co/Sak6r7Ncex #UnfoldTheUniverse

Relative to a Schoolroom Globe…

Planet Mars is a mile away (1.6 km).

The Moon is 30 feet away (10 meters).

The International Space Station orbits 3/8th of an inch (1 cm) above the surface.

Branson & Bezos this month ascend the thickness of two dimes (2 mm) above the surface.

At the La Brea Tar Pits we find a femur— of an ancient Huge Ground Sloth. Surprising?

#MarsHelicopter, you are cleared for takeoff. Flight commands are being sent.

Recent shots from a mucky plane window over Winnipeg. My first sightings! None of the dots are stars, they are all reflections from inside the plane. #Auroraborealis

Mesmerizing!

Pointed my scope at saturn and fell in love with her rings. Was scanning the sky with binos when a meteor whizzed by. Best session so far!
