The sun was just 10 degrees above the horizon when NASA's Perseverance rover captured this morning view of Nili Planum yesterday. The rim of Jezero crater is casting a long shadow over the rover and foreground landscape.

Possible chemical signature of life found on Mars!
These claims are hugely exciting--and, as always, complex and somewhat ambiguous. The NASA press conference just wrapped, but the news coverage is already coming out:

🌚 NASA Finds Evidence That Mars Devoured Huge Chunks of Other Planets
「 Some of these smithereens are so large, the researchers say, that they're effectively protoplanets — moon-sized objects in the early stages of becoming a planet proper. In other words: Mars could be stuffed with the dead embryos of failed worlds 」
Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 is humanity’s farthest emissary, over 15 billion miles (24.8 billion km) from Earth, racing at 38,000 mph (17 km/s). It still carries the Golden Record, a time capsule of Earth’s culture, into the uncharted depths of the cosmos.

Crossing into interstellar space in 2012, Voyager 1 marked a milestone in exploration. Yet on a galactic scale, its motion is almost imperceptible. Even after drifting for a million years, it would remain within the Orion Spur, close to its origins.

To grasp the vastness of space, Voyager 1 will pass near Gliese 445 in about 40,000 years. Yet even then, it will hardly have traveled across the galaxy. One full orbit of the Milky Way would require over 400 million years—an unimaginable timescale.

🌏 It's Official: NASA Is Giving Up on Climate Change Science
"All the climate science and all of the other priorities that the last administration had at NASA we’re going to move aside, and all of the science that we do is going to be directed towards exploration, which is the mission of NASA," he said. "That’s why we have NASA — is to explore, not to do all of these Earth sciences."

If you can't measure it, it must not exist. Truly a concerted effort to spread ignorance and return to the Dark Ages:
"Destroying the spacecraft, however, will hamstring climate research for decades..."
