Remembering the fearless, lionhearted #journalist Marie Colvin. She was born #OTD in 1956.
She devoted--and gave--her life to the proposition that the truth of history demands witnesses. She was killed covering the siege of Homs in #Syria in 2012.

I got a telescope for Christmas from my lovely boyfriend, and tonight was able to use it for the first time. I managed to fan a slightly blurry, but absolutely beautiful photo of the moon! My first dabbling in Astrophotography, all tips welcome! #astronomy #stargazing #astrophotography #newhobby

Open up this picture fully.
Then look at the surface of Mars.
Then look up to the top right.
Spot Mars' moon Phobos high in the sky.
Then notice the bright spot beside Phobos.
That's Earth.
