Rumination: 10 years ago…

From io9.com, 7/7/13 marks the 10th anniversary of the Opportunity Rover on Mars.  It originally had a 90day mission that it has greatly exceeded.  Congratulations to NASA.

M82

From APOD, 7/4/13.  This is the M82 Starburst Galaxy with a Superwind by Ken Crawford.

I have not yet had the time yet to really get into a review or really to get to anything else of consequence due to some family commitments.  That said, I think this more than fills in for my writing.

I don’t believe I need to write more.  This image is absolutely stunning on its own.  It comes from Astro Picture of the Day on Twitter and the photograph is created to NASA and the Solar Dynamics Observatory.  For more information go here.

Inspiration of the Day: A view of the earth from the ISS

Time-lapsed footage is an amazing technique that allows for very informative imagery.  This is no exception.  A marveling, dizzying journey that reveals just how small we truly are and to me just how special our little blue marble is…

Music: Freedom Fighters (Two Steps from Hell).  This is from 31 March 2013 Astro Pic of the Day on Twitter.
