Elevation difference map (vertical displacement) based on two different acquisitions by our remote sensing team. These area base on two DEMs spanning 1 Dec. to 15 Jan. covering the latest eruption in #Grindavík
Reds:
- New lava fields
- Lava barriers
Blues:
- Quarry for barriers
- Barrier entrenchment
- Graben formation
In reality, I suspect that the only thing this new film shares with our long-lived planetary mission is the name “Mars Express”, although whether that is entirely coincidental, I have no idea.
There is already a spin-off prequel novel by Cédric Degottex: https://groupe.bragelonne.fr/en/foreign-rights/book/mars-express/
It's paper time!
The first results from my #JWST time, in a project shared with Tom Ray et al. from the MIRI consortium, a study of the extremely young protostellar outflow, HH211, in Perseus, published in advance form in Nature today.

Here's the headline image, a composite of three of the NIRCam filters we used.
C/2023 P1: Möglicher interstellarer Komet bald sogar mit bloßem Auge sichtbar
In wenigen Tagen wird der C/2023 P1 wohl hell genug für das bloße Auge. Hierzulande bleibt aber nur wenig Zeit. Die Umlaufbahn des Objekts lässt spekulieren.
Here are the landing site locations of Chandrayaan-3 and Luna-25 and the crash site locations of Luna-25 and Chandrayaan-2.
Luna-25 crashed in Pontecoulant G crater at 2:58 p.m. Moscow time on August 19, not far from the planned landing site.
Chandrayaan-3 will land tomorrow (Aug 23) at 12:34 UTC.

If you’d asked me just twelve hours ago whether I hoped to be able to post a picture for #Caturday, I would have said “no”.
I would have said I’d given up all hope of #Tigger coming home after 26 days away 😿
And I would have been wrong 😱
As it is, I’m just amazed & grateful that he returned shortly after midnight last night. Very skinny, but otherwise seemingly well & very loud 😺🥰
Thank you to everyone who kept hoping 🙇♂️🙂👍
The prodigal son 😺
A week after his return, #Tigger has regained a lot of his lost weight & as his facial demeanour might suggest, is fully enjoying being served on hand & foot 🤷♂️
And to be honest, we’re only too happy to do so 🙇♂️
And that, ladies & gentlemen, is that 🍾
My final #JWST Guaranteed Time Observation programmes for Cycle 3 have been submitted on deadline day & all but a few minutes of my allocation used. Even that we'll try to tweak later – it's precious stuff 💎
These new projects will image two young clusters & a protostellar jet that haven't yet been observed with JWST, looking at star formation across the Milky Way ✨
Likely to be scheduled in 2024 & 2025 – stay tuned 🖖🙂🤘
