If you’re following the Artemis launch, this is a perfect time to browse through the NASA Earth Observatory archives for lunar beauty shots. The site has published some stunners over the years. science.nasa.gov/earth/earth-...

Artemis II commander Reid Wiseman announced “Rise,” designed by Lucas Ye of Mountain View, California, as the zero gravity indicator that will fly with the crew around the Moon. “Rise” was inspired by the iconic Earthrise moment from the Apollo 8 mission. A zero gravity indicator is a small plush item that typically rides with a crew to visually indicate when they are in space.

And ICYMI news, the "Zero Gravity Indicator" mascot for #Artemis2 is "Rise", designed by Lucas Ye, Mountain View, California

I'm eagerly awaiting for when it's merch fully drops, 'cuz I'd rock one of these on my backpack!

Though Ireland is known for the many shades of green that grace its grassy pastoral landscapes, there's one corner of the Emerald Isle where gray reigns supreme.

This iceberg was once the biggest in the world. Now it has just weeks left - BBC News A23a was once twice the size of Greater London but now its 40-year journey is coming to an end.

Lovely story on the BBC about iceberg a23a, which has given us decades of fun but is now nearing its end…

Really enjoyed talking with Mark Poynting about this one-time behemoth.

The journey of Iceberg A23a (largest, oldest, 'living' berg) since the beginning of 2024, as seen by NASA MODIS, including its five-month pirouette on the Taylor Column, short embrace by the pack ice in August, grounding on South Georgia's shelf in April, and baby calf. Watch this space for updates!

Why is this infamous iceberg turning blue? Iceberg A-23A is bigger than New York City, but its days are numbered.

Stunning footage from earlier today, when the new Kilauea eruption covered the USGS Webcam 3, which is situated in the Halemaʻumaʻu crater near the southern rim of the much larger Kilauea caldera.

This *isn't* what the people of Pompeii saw.

But it's not very far off.

Y'all the latest episode of the #Kilauea #eruption just went CRAZY. It looks like pressure built up enough to explode out the ground around the two existing vents (first few seconds), leading to a massive surge in lava fountaining.🌋🤯
