And here's a question for the #photography crowd. I often have problems with washout (like the top of this image) on cloudy days like today. I usually try to resolve this by going to "pro" mode (Motorola phone) and messing with sliders. Usually the "shutter speed" (whatever that means on a camera with no mechanical shutter). Is there a better approach? What does that setting even mean for a phone camera?

Lift-off

"Huddled in a Zodiac boat in icy waters off the Antarctic peninsula, I waited patiently for an Adélie penguin to propel itself from the water to the safety of an iceberg. Persistence delivered as I captured this penguin in an almost levitational-like state, as if posing for the camera”

NASA’s climate crisis visualization is a reality check

The planet is getting hotter. Fast.

One from last week I didn't get round to posting.

Believe me, you need this bit of space ASMR today:

You are looking at the largest and most detailed image ever made of our Milky Way galaxy’s centre in visible light.

Scientifically, the data will be used for microlensing surveys to find exoplanets - and is now fully publicly available. As are the pretty images if you want them as a desktop backgrounds, of course!

Climate.us is officially live! After NOAA ended Climate.gov’s day-to-day operations in 2025, former team members built Climate.us to carry that work forward. Their explanations and graphics have always stood out to me as clear, accessible, and transparent. I’m really looking forward to this reboot.
