My favorite capture of the night: The moment the moon's shadow split the sunset in half, leaving a diamond ring in the sky and a breathtaking view. I call it "Shadows on the Balearic Sea".
I'll have prints available for this one linked in my bio for a few days only.
A timelapse view from our @SpaceX Dragon of the spectacular southern aurora seen in yesterday’s post, a result of a recent solar event. As opposed to the previous aurora I’ve seen, this one danced and snaked its way directly below us, putting on quite a show. I am in awe of this ethereal and emotionally evocative phenomenon.
A Gaudí siempre le preguntaban cuando acabarían lss obras, y el siempre respondía que su cliente no tiene prisa.
Para Antoni Gaudí, que murió tal día como hoy, hace 100 años, ingresado en un hospicio porque lo tomaron por un mendigo tras ser atropellado por un tranvía, habría sido un sueño saber que el Papa, los Reyes de España, el presidente del Gobierno y de la Generalitat, el alcalde de Barcelona y una larga lista de autoridades estarían, un siglo después, rindiéndole homenaje y mirando al cielo para ver cómo se iluminaba la torre de la iglesia más alta del mundo.
La epopeya de la Sagrada Familia, 144 años en construcción, y que aún no ha acabado, ha tenido uno de sus días para la historia con la solemne ceremonia religiosa que ha culminado con la bendición del Papa a la Torre de Jesucristo.
Otro momento que hará que la imagen de Barcelona dé la vuelta mundo, con 9.000 personas dentro del templo y 130.000 en el exterior
Y lo de los drones eso ya no se como expresarlo, mejor verlo.

Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
And everything under the Sun is in tune 🎶
This image from the eclipse during the Artemis II lunar flyby captures a halo of light around the Moon. Scientists are still investigating if the glow comes from interstellar dust or the solar corona.
Welcome home Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy! 🫶
