A microscopic particle of asteroid Bennu, brought to Earth by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission, is manipulated under a transmission electron microscope. Researchers first reinforced it with thin strips of platinum (the “L” shape) then welded a tungsten microneedle to it. 🧪🔭

In a historical milestone, Hubble has witnessed the catastrophic collision of asteroids in the nearby Fomalhaut planetary system 🪨💥 

Observations also revealed that an object previously suspected to be a candidate planet was, in fact, a dust cloud.

From NASA: Is Titan a “slushy” world?🍦

New research reanalyzing data from our Cassini mission suggests Saturn’s moon does not contain a global subsurface ocean, as once thought. It shows Titan is mostly ice, with slush layers & small pockets of liquid water. go.nasa.gov/3Y0ncBK

This is a rework of one of my better Mars images taken almost exactly 3 years ago at around it's closest approach to us.
The bright circle upper-right of centre is the volcano Olympus Mons. A few others are also visible.

Saturn taken on Sunday evening.
You may think it looks exactly the same as the last image I posted, but the observant will notice the rings are 0.15° more open which for Saturn is a pretty big deal 😂

I don't watch anything on Netflix, but I agree it would make a great series.

Okay then, Mr Thursday will be added to my reading list.
I'm retired MK with lots of time on my hands. Besides, reading is a great pleasure for me.
