Fly Your Name Around the Moon Aboard Artemis II
The Artemis II mission will soon embark on an incredible journey. Starting from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the mission will launch into Earth orbit, complete a lunar flyby, and then return to Earth — all with four astronauts aboard.
And the best part? We’re bringing you along for the ride.
Time is running out to fly your name around the Moon aboard Artemis II! Sign up here and your name will be uploaded on an SD card that will join the astronauts inside of the Orion spacecraft during their lunar mission. Don’t forget to download your boarding pass!
Make sure to follow us on Tumblr for your regular dose of space!

Jupiter in Infrared from Gemini : In infrared, Jupiter lights up the night. Recently, astronomers at the Gemini North Observatory in Hawaii, USA, created some of the best infrared photos of Jupiter ever taken from Earth’s surface, pictured. Gemini was able to produce such a clear image using a technique called lucky imaging, by taking many images and combining only the clearest ones that, by chance, were taken when Earth’s atmosphere=/a?> was the most calm. Jupiter’s jack-o’-lantern-like appearance is caused by the planet’s different layers of clouds. Infrared light can pass through clouds better than visible light, allowing us to see deeper, hotter layers of Jupiter’s atmosphere, while the thickest clouds appear dark. These pictures, together with ones from the Hubble Space Telescope and the Juno spacecraft, can tell us a lot about weather patterns on Jupiter, like where its massive, planet-sized storms form. via NASA
This is what a thunderstorm on Jupiter looks like. It was taken by the James Webb space telescope and is one of the clearest images ever produced of the planet. :: [Scott Horton]

FROM THE MANUAL: Q &A III Q: Was there a particular point at which I should have done something different: gone to school for something specific, made professional advances, interned, taken a risk or leap of faith, asked for help, called people back, shown gratitude, applied for a job with a salary and benefits, saved money, gotten insurance, built a community, resigned myself to a relationship with someone for financial stability, had a baby? A: Probably.

The Clearest Images of Jupiter ever taken
These beautifully real images are some of the closest images of Jupiter. Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. It is a gas giant with a mass more than two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined, but slightly less than one-thousandth the mass of the Sun. The original image was captured by JunoCam, the camera on NASA's Juno mission in orbit around Jupiter. This image was taken on Juno's 22nd close pass by Jupiter on Sept. 12, 2019 with image processing done by Prateek.

The Juno spacecraft, in its mission orbiting Jupiter, has provided humanity with some of the most detailed and clearest images ever taken of the gas giant.
During its 54th close flyby, Juno captured stunning visuals of Jupiter's belts and zones, revealing the intricate patterns and hues of the planet's atmosphere from approximately 52,400 miles above the cloud tops.

The clearest image ever taken of Mars.
The last image taken by Cassini before it was deliberately smashed into Saturn’s atmosphere.
Clearest image of Mars ever taken.
Curiosity
Clearest image of Phobos ever taken, Moon of Mars
Clearest Image ever taken of Mars’ North Pole. Yes that’s water ice.
The clearest image was ever taken of Venus!
Additionally,
• Venus is the second planet from the Sun and is Earth’s closest planetary neighbour. It’s one of the four inner, terrestrial (or rocky) planets, and it’s often called Earth’s twin because it’s similar in size and density. These are not identical twins, however – there are radical differences between the two worlds.
• It has a thick, toxic atmosphere filled with carbon dioxide and it’s perpetually shrouded in thick, yellowish clouds of sulfuric acid that trap heat, causing a runaway greenhouse effect.
• It’s the hottest planet in our solar system, even though Mercury is closer to the Sun.
• Surface temperatures on Venus are about 900 degrees Fahrenheit (475 degrees Celsius) – hot enough to melt lead.
• Venus has crushing air pressure at its surface – more than 90 times that of Earth – similar to the pressure you'd encounter a mile below the ocean on Earth.
Furthermore,
Distance from Sun: 108.2 million km
Orbital period: 225 days
Radius: 6,051.8 km
Length of day: 116d 18h 0m
Surface area: 460.2 million km²
Surface gravity: 8.87 m/s2; 0.904 g
