The #ArtemisII Emergency Egress System is designed to take the crew and personnel off the rocket or platform should something happen.

But why are we seeing it during launch? Check out the video!

And that’s what got me seriously into astronomy in astrophotography. Once I zoomed in on it with my old digital camera and I saw Jupiter and the moons, I just got hooked.

I was able to capture the #SnowMoon last night.

And while Florida is not known for getting snow, the last week or so has seen some chilly temps that remind me of where I am from.

Phobos hovering over the giant volcanoes of Mars! Fabulous view from ESA's Mars Express orbiters.

Phobos is the 25 km (15 mile) wide flying grey rock at center. The volcanoes are (l-r) Arsia Mons, Pavonis Mons, and Ascraeus Mons. Processing by Andrea Luck. šŸ§ŖšŸ”­

Happy #RedPlanetDay! It is a day to honor #Mars, also known as the #RedPlanet.

This is my photo of Mars that I took from earlier in the year using my Celestron NexStar 8SE telescope and Canon Rebel T8i camera.

You can see its polar ice cap and Valles Marineris, a system of canyons. #astronomy

That is an amazing capture!

That is more detailed than what I got of Io earlier this year.

And I love the facts you shared.

Io's shadow can be seen falling on the face of Jupiter at left. Io is traveling from left to right in its one-and-three-quarter-day orbit around Jupiter.

In 1676 Ole RĆømer saw eclipses of Jupiter’s moon Io run late when Earth moved away from Jupiter and early when approaching. Earth’s orbital diameter was known from Kepler’s laws; from this he was the first to estimate the speed of light (at 220,000 km/s) and was accurate to 75% #AstroHistory

In 1665, Giovanni Cassini was first to observe a ā€œPermanent Spotā€ on Jupiter, though probably wasn't today’s Red Spot using 34-ft refractors at the Paris Observatory. He tracked it for years to measure Jupiter’s rotation. Cassini’s drawings survive in Paris Observatory archives. #AstroHistory

The #BeaverMoon — #Supermoon — over Orlando.

I was happy I could capture this. I used my #Celestron NexStar 8SE #telescope and #Canon camera.

(The photo of the moon over #Orlando is a composite and whatnot.)
