Note: The whole photo can be seen HERE. This is the closest photo captured of the sun to date, taken by the European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter satellite from a distance of 77-million kilometers. It features thousands of small solar flares scientists have nicknamed campfires. Some more info while I

Using data collected from the eROSITA (Extended Roentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) instrument aboard the German–Russian satellite Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma over the past six months, a group of researchers have created this x-ray map of the universe in an attempt to help calculate how fast the universe is expanding. Some

Because upscaling to 4K, 60FPS is clearly the new CSI zoom and enhance, this is a video from the Apollo 16 moon mission of a ridealong in the lunar rover to Station 4, Stone Mountain (the Cinco Crater) that’s been given the treatment. For reference, the original footage was 16mm

This is ‘A New View Of The Moon’, a worthwhile short created by filmmakers Wylie Overstreet and Alex Gorosh, who brought a high-powered telescope to the sidewalks of Los Angeles and invited strangers to take an up-close glimpse of our natural satellite. Their reactions are great, and I’d be lying

This is ‘All My Rockets That Didn’t Work’, a compilation video created by Youtuber and model rocketeer BPS.space of all their model rocket crashes over the years.  I think this video serves as a very powerful reminder that, even when faced with repeated failures, some people just don’t know when
