The Three Kings of Winter

A first look of the season at the 3 brilliant stars of Orion’s Belt. From left to right in this image their names are Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka, in natural color as our eyes would see them were they sensitive enough.

This thread is discussing TERCOM guidance. There is a lot of mis- & disinformation circulating, partially fueled by the 🇩🇪 government itself, regarding the capabilities & requirements of TERCOM in relation to Taurus. Let's clarify the facts & set the record straight. 🧵👇 1/22

A supernova just occurred in M101, but I was too busy capturing this supernova remnant which has never been photographed!

1/Assorted F-35 closeups from all three variants (A, B, C).

Most wing and landing gear closeups are from the C-variant aircraft.

Feel free to ask any questions.

My latest book in the Osprey New Vanguard series was released in the UK a week ago, and in the USA next week. I completed the manuscript before the current war in Ukraine, so no coverage of that subject.

80 hours on the Xmas Tree!
I captured this target for 3 months using 6 filters.
The details are very crisp, the noise is basically non-existent, and the colors came out vibrant!

[CSIS Missile Defense @Missile_Defense]

The exact location of your interceptor matters quite a lot in these scenarios. Missile defense isn't a force field; it's much harder to base interceptors behind the direction the missiles are aimed.
