Earth has a newly discovered quasi-moon, 2023 FW13, that orbits the Sun in rhythm with us. It's small ("between a boxcar and a large Winnebago"), but an intriguing target for future exploration.

Längmatte at Moonset (1919) by German #expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner has its origins in what the artist referred to as a “madly beautiful” experience of nature. Kirchner printed this woodcut from several blocks, each inked in a different color, which he placed precisely next to and on top of one another in such a way that the colors overlap.

Good morning. 🌙🌙🌙
It has rained every day for about three days. My grass is looking really green this morning. The electricity went out for a few hours last night. Because we have a standby generator, we had to endure a full minute without power. 😂 Getting the generator was one of our better choices albeit, a relatively minor one.
One of my better life's choices was marrying my wife. My wife makes me a better person. There are very few "my choices" anymore, they are our choices.
When around grandchildren, nieces, nephews in their early teens, I find a way to tell them about how the choices they make will in the now will affect their future choices.
“People took what they wanted, they clutched at coincidences, the few there were, and made a life from them. . .. Choices are made in brief seconds and paid for in the time that remains.” - Paolo Giordano, The Solitude of Prime Numbers

It's a bit smoky in Brooklyn, New York today. But on the bright side, the Moon was an interesting shade of red last night. Tsuki ga kirei desu ne indeed...

The Moon through tree branches. I took this the other evening as the Moon was approaching full. Can you detect the Man in the Moon, the Lady in the Moon, and the Rabbit in the Moon? I can.

"Impact cratering happens on every solid body in the Solar System. In fact, it is the dominant process affecting the surfaces on most extraterrestrial bodies today.
On Earth, however, such craters are often lost over time by active geological processes, but elsewhere in the Solar System there are some truly majestic examples of impact craters preserved for all to see.
Here, we pick our highlights of what the Solar System has to offer." #space #craters #science #astronomy #SolarSystem #geology #astrogeology #exogeology #Moon #Mars #Ganymede #Ceres #Venus

Saturday was a real moonday. I would like to share one take out of the complete nightly moon safari I did here, on this very photo Monday. Well, before I take the trouble to put more flat jokes and puns here - voilà.

Standing stones on the isle of #Gigha This one has been moved and re-erected since #prehistoric times but it's interesting that the top of the stone is angled at about the same angle as the setting #moon. Also amazing views of #Jura. #StandingStoneSunday More on our page: https://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=58519

I don't think I've seen the moon quite this full in a long time, so I took the Nikon and my super-telephoto to give it a snap. And boy, did it deliver!
Sensor-shift OIS plus lens OIS means I could take this photo handheld, at 500mm, with ISO 100, 1/250s, and ƒ/8.
Just superb stuff.

Lights in the #NightSky. There was an Int’l #Space Station flyover after #sunset so as an experiment I sent up my #drone & took some long exposures as it approached, which I then stacked into one - hence the gaps. As it happened the ISS path (left) nearly paralleled the flight path of a jet headed into IAH (right). Also, from the drone, a photo of the rising (near) full #moon. And earlier, while making run for Vzlan food, a #photo of lights (& moon) at a nearby food truck court.



NZ Folks. Nearly-full moonrise any minute now if you have a horizon view that way.

My husband had to wait for 6 years to capture this view of #TheNeedles.
Taken as the #moon set at 4.30 am last summer. This shot is only possible a couple of times each year. He almost had it in 2016 but it was slightly too breezy and the telephoto lens couldn't keep in focus.
It causes controversy as some think it's fake, I promise you that it is not. It involved much research, persistence and luck with the weather! It's the cover shot on our 2024 calendar #IsleofWight #photography

Dusted off my amateur very basic telescope I haven't used in years. Considering this pic is taken by pressing my phone to the telescope's eyepiece I like the result.

Many people imagine professional astronomers hunched over a #telescope and taking notes. We no longer work that way, as light captured by the telescope is registered by complex instruments. But sometimes it's fun to use your eyes!
I took this pic a few years ago, when we removed one of the instruments of ESO's Very Large Telescope in #Chile. A screen was temporarily attached in its place, and we used it to project the #Moon and show it to everyone at the observatory

FYI, there will be a Lunar occultation of Jupiter early Wednesday morning, May 17, 2023.
From the U.S. East Coast, the thin crescent moon will appear to pass in front of Jupiter, between 6:15 and 10:00 a.m. EDT.
Note that the Sun will have risen, hence proper equipment will be needed to observe it.
Observers on the west coast will have better views with darker skies.

Unnamed woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi from the book “Tsuki hyakushi” (One Hundred Aspects of the Moon). The book depicts various aspects of the moon, drawing upon Japanese and Chinese anecdotes, historical events, and mythology. The final book printing was in 1892, the year Tsuki printed this and the year he died.

I'm not very proud of the image, but for running like mad across the fields with tripod (the pre-choosen location turned out to be covered in high vegetation) and subsequent cloning out seventeen transmission cables, I have decided to show it anyway.
Last night's full moon as it rose over Bembridge Lifeboat Station.
It was lovely and calm down on the beach as we watched the #moon emerge from the low cloud. This photo taken by my husband does it far more justice than my wobbly video that I posted last night!
I have a newsletter called @Beautifulpublicdata where I write about interesting visual datasets collected by government agencies.
