Neptune & Triton this morning - my first view of 2026!

A relatively quiet view with no storms visible.

24" Dob, Uranus-C/M at 9000mm f/15. (IR)RGB.

@DatsDaven And weird image processing too

Btw they also discovered that the density of Io's surface is so low it's comparable to volcanic ash (lower than the Moon's regolith) and also the whole surface of Io being relatively smooth other than the mountains standing out

Hot inside and out! 🌋

NASA’s Juno mission has provided the first measurements of the temperature below the surface of Jupiter’s moon Io, revealing significant heating within the subsurface of the solar system's most volcanically active world. 1/2

@DatsDaven Because the camera Juno has goes outside the visible part of the light spectrum

@Staladus No lol, there's mountains and lava lakes as well and probably other features I can't remember rn

@steligernuncius Thanks!!!!

@JackAzzopardi It's more of a descending probe like the one Galileo had for Jupiter

[Extrema ⚣ @extrema207]

@Danteyote_ @NaukaC73983 It's not that either. Neptune is interesting too, just in a different way from Uranus. The ocasional dark spots it has are linked to the Sun's activity cycle, and it is the responsible of maintaining so many KBOs in resonances (few examples). So no, not a boring version of Uranus

[Extrema ⚣ @extrema207]

We got some updates on the Uranus orbiter and probe spacecraft and now it looks SO much like a Cassini sequel #solarsystem #planets https://t.co/kWAFs2YP18

[Extrema ⚣ @extrema207]

@GeraldJr1997 "Uranus Orbiter and Probe" is the name of the spacecraft itself. Not as original as other spacecraft names but whatever

[Extrema ⚣ @extrema207]

@NaukaC73983 China has some plans for a Neptune orbiter but there's not too much info on it

[Extrema ⚣ @extrema207]

@astro_jaz Dragonfly should have more hype than the 283738474838373837th mission to Mars honestly. It's a cool planet but the outer solar system gets barely any priority when it comes to missions

[Extrema ⚣ @extrema207]

Every day Quaoar screams out more and more for a mission dedicated to it
