KSC-06pd0080

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- Great white egrets and a great blue heron in the foreground seem to stand watch as NASA's New Horizons spacecraft leaps off the pad on time at 2 p.m. EST aboard an Atlas V rocket from Complex 41 on Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. This was the third launch attempt in as many days after scrubs due to weather concerns. The compact...

Newest on the shelf: mean-motion resonances, first half of 2026. One question, one window, one curator going through what came out and rating it.

Not "everything important this month" — that is a promise we could not honestly make. AI finds and summarises; the verdict on each paper is a person's.

Full-disk View of Titania

Voyager 2 obtained this full-disk view of Uranus moon Titania in the early morning hours of Jan. 24, 1986, from a distance of about 500,000 kilometers 300,000 miles. Many circular depressions, probably impact craters, are visible in this clear-filter.

Rare Glance at Dark Side of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

This is a rare glance at the dark side of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Light backscattered from dust particles in the comet coma reveals a hint of surface structures. This image was taken by OSIRIS, Rosetta scientific imaging system.
