Image of Arp 147, also known as IC 298, from the Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies by Halton Arp (1966).

In the original catalog, it was in the category: Amorphous galaxies - Associated rings. The clumpy ring in the galaxy on the right likely formed when the companion galaxy to the left crashed through its center.

Painting with Jupiter

In digital brush strokes, Jupiter's signature atmospheric bands and vortices were used to form this interplanetary post-impressionist work of art. The creative image from citizen scientist Rick Lundh uses data from the Juno spacecraft's JunoCam. To paint on the digital canvas, a JunoCam image with contrasting light and dark tones was chosen for processing and an oil-painting software filter applied. The image data was captured during perijove 10. That was Juno's December 16, 2017 close encounter with the solar system's ruling gas giant. At the time the spacecraft was cruising about 13,000 kilometers above northern Jovian cloud tops. Now in an extended mission, Juno has explored Jupiter and its moons since entering orbit around Jupiter in July of 2016.

A close up of the latest abrasion patch on Mars. The diameter of the patch is ~5cm (2 inches). Perseverance rover acquired this image using its SHERLOC WATSON camera, located on the turret at the end of the rover's robotic arm.

This image was acquired on April 18, 2025 (Sol 1479) at the local mean solar time of 12:54:46.

Les milliardaires touristes de l'espace sont des nuisibles égocentrés et participent au crime contre l'humanité appelé :" non action climatique et contribution à l'accélération du dérèglement avec extinction de la vie humaine."
Donc oui, se constituer en partie civile et porter plainte car ces riches sont nos bourreaux et on joue les victimes et se laisse faire.
