Mars Is The Mission

Just like on Earth, other planets in the solar system also have auroras. Jupiter’s auroras are the strongest in the solar system. These images were captured by the Juno, Galileo and Hubble probes.

Nineteen Eighty-Four, George Orwell This edition available at: Leigh’s Favorite Books

La “Vesica Piscis” es una de las mas profundas figuras de geometría sagrada. Representa la vagina de la Diosa, la unión creadora de lo Sagrado Masculino y lo Sagrado Femenino. Es motivo básico de la Flor de la Vida. Es el recurso de energía. Es el portal de luz que une lo material y lo espiritual. Es el NACIMIENTO.

What’s Up for September 2017?

Set your sights beyond the solar system and take a late summertime road trip along the Milky Way!

On September 15 the Cassini spacecraft ends its glorious Saturnian science tour by plunging into the atmosphere of Saturn, becoming forever a part of the ringed planet. Learn more about the end of mission activities HERE. 

This month Saturn is the only prominent evening planet low in the southwest sky. 

Look for it near the constellation Sagittarius. Above and below Saturn–from a dark sky–you can’t miss the summer Milky Way spanning the sky from northeast to southwest.

Grab a pair of binoculars and scan the teapot-shaped Sagittarius, where stars and some brighter clumps appear as steam from the teapot. Those bright clumps are near the center of our galaxy, which is full of gas, dust and stars.

Directly overhead is the great Summer Triangle of stars. Vega, Altair and Deneb are in the pretty constellations Lyra, Aquila and Cygnus.

As you gaze toward the northeast you’ll see Cassiopeia, the familiar W-shaped constellation…and Perseus. Through your binoculars, look for the Perseus Double Cluster. Both of the clusters are visible with the naked eye, are 7500 light years away, and contain more than 300 blue-white super-giant stars!

Every star and every object you can see with your unaided eye is part of the Milky Way. With one exception: the great Andromeda galaxy, which is faintly visible through binoculars on the opposite side of the night sky from Saturn and the teapot.
