The 2026 Buck Moon as it appeared over Southern Arizona last night. Think clouds acted as a prism, splitting the broadband light from the moon into a stunning array of colors.
This is an HDR composite captured from two photos, one exposed for the moon, one exposed for the halo.
Astronomers may have found one of the closest supernova remnants to the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy. It's expanding at about 3.2 million kilometers per hour (2 million mph) and is at least 1,700 years old. 💥More: https://t.co/Nv269TbUs2
Did you miss the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus last night? You didn't! Not really, because the pair will still appear close together tonight. Look to the western sky after sunset. In this view from June 10th, see if you can spot Mercury near the horizon as well.
I took 1.7 million photos over 6 days to catch this photo of a commercial jet in front of the sun.
The moment it happened, TWO floating prominences were visible, making this not just my best aircraft transit photo, but one of the luckiest of my career! Videos of the transit 👇
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
You better make your face up with your favourite disguise
With your button down lips and your roller blind eyes
With your empty smile and your hungry heart
Feel the bile rising from your guilty past
With your nerves in tatters as the cockleshell shatters
And the hammers batter down your door
You better run!
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
You better run all day and run all night
And keep your dirty feelings deep inside
And if you're taking your girlfriend out tonight
You better park the car well out of sight
'Cause if they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks
They're gonna send you back to Mother in a cardboard box
You better run!
Hey, open up! Hahahahaha!
Hammer, hammer
We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.
A mother lion does it all she hunts, protects, teaches, and nurtures. Her cubs depend on her not just for survival, but for learning how to become future kings and queens of the savannah
