Astrophoto of the stars and gas surrounding the black hole at the center of the Milky Way (unseen). The gas clouds are shown in red and wrap about two thirds of the way around the center of the image, from upper left to the middle of the right side.
#PPOD: This stunning snapshot, taken with ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), reveals the stars and gas surrounding an invisible giant — a supermassive black hole, located some 27,000 light-years away, at the heart of our Milky Way. 🧪 🔭

🔴 #Mars #Perseverance Sol 1763: R/R Navigation Camera ( #Navcam ). NASA's Mars Perseverance rover acquired this image using its onboard Right Navigation Camera (Navcam). The camera is located high on the rover's mast and aids in driving.

Close-up image of the cloud tops on Saturn revealing a pale squiggle of disturbed gas, resembling a signature or foam on a latte.
#PPOD: This very impressive, and little-known, image of a meandering squiggle of high-altitude clouds on Saturn was captured by the Cassini spacecraft on July 18, 2010. It almost looks like one of these fancy latte art designs! Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SSI/CICLOPS / @jpmajor.bsky.social 🧪 🔭
