Venus being larger than Earth really shows how large our sun is.
Awesome!!!! The boats kinda spoil the pic, but it’s still very good. Without boats, that would without a doubt be Desktop wallpaper material.
... as we discussed! Hugs, Mom
The Venus shadow almost looks like two circles superimposed on each other - anyone know why that is?
Cool stuff, Maynard!
Just a couple of little space news items for the day.
New Horizons is now less than 9 AU from Pluto and the Curiosity rover is due to land on Mars in August.
It will be interesting to see if the can pull off the Curiosity landing since its the size of an SUV and will be lowered to the surface by crane under a rocket.
Are you able to see the ISS at night?
I’m not sure if I have seen it.

That’s one heck of a shot! Thanks for sharing it, eh?
