The most impressive thing about Saturn is not the rings but the weird hexagon on it's pole.  This will forever trip me out.

Pillars of Creation is cool as gently caress. But my favorite is the Horse Head Nebula.  I'm not ready to say goodbye.

I’ve seen the ISS fly overhead and it hauls rear end. You have fractions of a second on a very specific day to get a shot like this.

Hoag's Object, a ring galaxy, which are rare, positioned just right for us to look at it face-on. And, through it, way behind it, is ANOTHER ring galaxy looking at us face-on.

Edit; it's the same picture, but the Earth seems to be different sizes and it's freaking me out. Edit2; Huh, here's the original, and it appears the 8x10 I bought from the vendor to get signed has made the Earth a bit bigger: https://www.flickr.com/photos/projectapolloarchive/21689650582/in/album-72157658666156148/ Nice Tuckpointing! fucked around with this message at 07:45 on Sep 15, 2023 |

All of the planets are named after Roman deities, with the exception of Uranus which was named after the Greek sky father solely because astronomers thought it would be really god drat funny.

The coolest thing about the hubble telescope is that it was built off CIA spy satellite tech that came first and flipping the cameras around and looking at space was an after thought and this was only confirmed after some spy satellites ("stubby hubbies" due to the lens focal length) were given to NASA recently
