Oh my! "Transcendent" really is a fitting title for this video.

Not long ago got a 100-400 and 1.4x extender off MPB. Was disappointed how little it did for zooming to the moon on my R6M2. I ended up doing a quick camera sensor comparison while waiting for a dark sky.
In short: don't use full frame sensors for astro if you like zooming in. :)

Only antimatter provides the energy we need for interstellar travel
This Earth Day, some dream of saving the Earth, while others dream of leaving it.
Here's why using antimatter as fuel is humanity's best bet for interstellar travel.

Only antimatter provides the energy we need for interstellar travel
Our dream of journeying to other star systems has a big obstacle to overcome: the vast interstellar distances. Can antimatter get us there?

Today is Earth Day, so let me tell you that our home world is the weirdest one in the solar system, and the competition is pretty stiff.

#PPOD: No, this photo, taken from the International Space Station, does not reveal a massive fire. Instead, the clouds reflect the sunset light, creating the illusion of flame. ESA astronaut Sophie Adenot captured this stunning view on April 9, 2026, posting: 🧪 🔭 👩🔬

From Earth, we can study the Sun only from the side. ESA's Solar Orbiter lets us look down from above, revealing another side of how the Sun works.
This new image shows magnetic fields wrapped around the Sun's south pole, which help drive the 11-year solar cycle. 🔭🧪

After all these years, we're are still learning fundamentally new things about the Sun & how it interacts with Earth.
NASA's PUNCH mission is creating 3D "tomographic" maps of how solar eruptions blow past our planet & spread out through the solar system. 🧪🔭
