Finally trying to look at this rock I found a year ago and finding some nice actinolite in there. I need to get a proper macro lens to photograph these things (they're too damn expensive). Whaddya think I should I do with this guy?

Fab 1st day at #NewScientistLive. Absolutely brilliant astro talks from @chanda.blacksky.app & @chrislintott.bsky.social and I even managed to fangirl Helen Sharman (astronaut) to tell her about the time she visited my school and changed my life. She is the nicest person in the world ever 🤗🔭
DutchSpace Meanwhile at KSC, I see some familiar Dutch people testing the Artemis III / ESM solar array :) ELM testing on-going Source: images.nasa.gov/details/KSC-...

Kevin M. Gill As part of NASA's efforts to modernize and unify its websites, the raw image websites (Mars 2020, MSL, Psyche, Cassini, InSight) will be unified into a new tool. This will try to maintain as much compatibility as possible, but there will be some necessary changes.
Paul Byrne This is a new deep-field image from JWST, designed to look for the point of origin of a fast radio burst. The bright, multi-point features are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is an entire galaxy.
Paul Byrne At the VEXAG 2026 meeting in Boulder just now, we've learned that NASA's VERITAS mission has been scheduled for a November 2032 launch. Folks, this is CRAZY good news. Earlier this year we were concerned that NASA would *cancel* VERITAS!
DutchSpace During the IAC SpaceX had a presentation on Starlink and public ephemeris (location) data to help traffic coordination, (one could of course launch less crap but I digress..) it showed interesting on-orbit shots detailing some of the close approaches Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6gE...
