A clear night sky taken in astrophotography mode. Thousands of stars around a bright Jupiter. There is a faint streak to the left of Jupiter which is the only Geminid meteor I caught in an image.

Congrats India! I’ve played enough Kerbal Space Program to know how challenging it is to land on the Mun…I mean Moon. Well done!

The first view from the Moon's surface captured by Chandrayaan 3's Vikram lander, showing the shadow of one of the craft's landing legs.

Half moon through a telescope
Half moon through a telescope. You can see the terminator and make out multiple craters. But bad fire holding the phone up against the eye piece.

Took a gander at the moon last night. Got a semi-acceptable shot by holding the phone up against the eyepiece. #moon #telescope #nightsky

One of the things we’ve always had to imagine has been recorded and sent back to us from Mars. The Perseverance landing video that @NASAJPL shared today is just awesome. I can’t wait to see everything from this and future missions. @NASAPersevere #countdowntomars
