I got reacquainted with an old friend to ring in the new year: The almighty planet Jupiter. Present on the left: the Great Red Spot. Image captured January 1st, at approx 5:30am. 1750 frames, imaged through my 1985 Celestron 11″ with my Neximage 5. Take that, fog! #celestronrocks #celestronfans #astronomy #solarsystem #jupiter #jovian #space #greatredspot #science #celestron #telescope #ididit #bloodycoldoutside #carlsagan #neildegrassetyson #johnainsworth #nasa by thetruedogbrother

We love you back Pluto 🌌💛 @nasa #DoseofGenius ・・・
The Rich Color Variations of Pluto“ Our New Horizons spacecraft captured this high-resolution enhanced color view of Pluto during its July 14, 2015 #PlutoFlyby. The image combines blue, red and infrared images taken by the Ralph/Multispectral Visual Imaging Camera (MVIC). Pluto’s surface sports a remarkable range of subtle colors, enhanced in this view to a rainbow of pale blues, yellows, oranges, and deep reds. Many landforms have their own distinct colors, telling a complex geological and climatological story that scientists have only just begun to decode.
