I hope this isn't a repeat, but it just sounds right today.
Okay, I'm going to warn you, this is a half-hour long. Maybe look at the pretty pictures first, but I can't resist.
This is what Dr Becky is talking about.
Sapphire Canyon, a Martian sample collected by our Perseverance rover, could preserve evidence of ancient life on the Red Planet. Here's what we've learned after a year of scientific scrutiny: https://t.co/Ciohk9ly8k pic.twitter.com/B7aYV0KH1F

Just all sorts of great rocket pictures for this week. I'm going to scatter them through the other pictures, and I may run a little long.

The center of the Milky Way is in there somewhere. Hubble is continuing to do good work.
Written in the stars 🌟

Hubble looked toward the constellation Sagittarius, unveiling a stunning scene of stars within our home galaxy, the Milky Way.

And the Webb refuses to roll over for Hubble.
Webb took a look at the Sagittarius B2 molecular cloud, the most massive, and active star-forming region in our galaxy, located only a few hundred light years from our central black hole. Why is it so much more active than the rest of the galactic center? https://t.co/2l8zdrAf3M pic.twitter.com/LNe3YIjLJn

One of the things that always strikes me in an airplane is how being up higher makes things look more three-dimensional. This is even more so.

We have not one but two comets right now. This is Lemmon. (Editor's note: Comet Lemmon is not named for Jack Lemmon, much to this editor's disappointment.)

During the period between 16th and 27th of October, the magnitude of the comet should increase from magnitude 4 to brighter than magnitude 3, and the tail will be at its longest, probably measuring between… pic.twitter.com/FTamBwmc4Y

This is one of my favorite photos I've ever taken. Shot during the Starlink 10-22 mission, it shows off the incredibly colorful clouds visible during this early morning launch. It also allows for clear visibility of the heat that is generated by Falcon 9. And, if you look really… pic.twitter.com/gUNSjIWLpK
