"Geologists are very pleasant companions, especially for geologists. It’s their art, to stop at every stone, and carry out an investigation at every layer of Earth"🔎🪨
from the “La vallèe de Trient” by the Swiss author Rodolphe Toepffer (1799-1846)
Our #BepiColombo@esaoperations team confirm all went well with our Mercury flyby last night. Now we wait and see what images & data our instrument teams collected!
Stay tuned for a selfie-cam update later today. Here's a sneak preview 🤫
Noticed a rather odd look to the sky today?
Wildfire smoke originating from North America, has turned the sky white and hazy in some areas, rather than blue.
This may give a more vibrant sunset tonight and give an orange tinge to the almost full moon 🌕
I went to see Twisters last night. It was great, just what a fun disaster movie should be!
Bonus for mentioning Streatham Hill, despite being set entirely in Oklahoma!
