What an amazing view of Earth from Artemis II.

The Sun is behind the Earth, illuminating a thin crescent. This low-light shot, taken by Reid Wiseman using a Nikon D5, shows auroras over the poles, city lights, and the glow of the atmosphere.

And yes, there are stars!

NASA astronaut and Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman took this picture of Earth from the Orion spacecraft’s window after completing the translunar injection burn. There are two auroras (top right and bottom left) and zodiacal light (bottom right) is visible as the Earth eclipses the Sun.

The interior staircase of the Hôtel Tassel in Brussels, Belgium, a landmark of Art Nouveau architecture.
It was designed by architect Victor Horta for scientist and professor Emile Tassel and built between 1892 and 1893.

The beautiful blooms in the neighbor's tree this morning were both enchanting and concerning. It was in low 80s here today—mid-March. Unprecedented. This is a sublime beauty.

White spring blossoms on tree branches glow in soft sunlight, with a shallow depth of field creating a dreamy blur against a pale blue sky.

Found a very dozy pair of Wood Mice on the outskirts of Bath today. Picked one up briefly to check for the rarer Yellow-necked Mouse, which has a complete yellow band across the neck. This one only had a small patch, so definitely a Wood Mouse. I returned it to its bed and its friend after examining it.

A new 225-meter (740-foot) crater appeared on the Moon while nobody was looking. NASA's lunar orbiter imaged the dramatic aftermath.

Such large impacts are once-in-a-century events. This one happened in the spring of 2024.

In a rare event, the moon got a massive new crater

A crater as wide as two American football fields formed in spring 2024, a size expected roughly once a century. A NASA orbiter got to watch.

A tale of two Saturns. The one from Hubble shows visible light, the one from JWST shows infrared.

They're taken 3 months apart, so they also show Saturn's shifting angle relative to Earth. A welcome double dose of beauty.

Hiti

हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
