Mount Etna eruption in images: See Europe's largest active volcano blow from different angles

Mount Etna by Athanasius Kircher (1665)

"Illustration found in Athanasius Kircher's Mundus Subterraneus (1665), a book detailing his theories about life beneath the Earth's crust. With his enormous range of scholarly pursuits the 17th-century polymath Athanasius Kircher has been hailed as the last Renaissance man and "the master of hundred arts"." from Public Domain Image Archive

I recently visited the ALMA observatory in Chile. While I was poking around the telescopes, ALMA researchers released amazing new views of planet-forming disks around young stars.

These are the most detailed images yet of new solar systems being born.

I breathed in all the green around me today as if it was air. I paddled in the mountain stream and felt the cool, clear water. My ears were filled with birdsong and the rustling of leaves. I feel the deepest of connections to this place where I've lived all my life. I know it and I feel it knows me. To walk amongst these trees is to be amongst family. #hiraeth #belonging #love #nature #trees #home

Some serendipitous space beauty to start your weekend.

NASA's new PUNCH mission, designed to study the solar wind, just took this ethereal image of the Moon passing the (blocked out) Sun. The Moon's night side is facing us, but it's beautifully lit by Earthshine.

https://science.nasa.gov/blogs/punch/2025/05/12/nasas-punch-catches-first-rainbow-and-other-new-images/ #science #art #nature

$During commissioning, PUNCH’s NFI instrument captured this image of the new Moon as it passed by the Sun in the sky on April 27, 2025. The new Moon appears full, because it is illuminated by Earthshine (sunlight reflected off Earth). The image helped the PUNCH team confirm that the Moon will not obscure NFI’s view of the corona and solar wind. The dark circle near the bottom is the shadow of NFI’s occulter, which hides the Sun. The occulter, which was not yet fully aligned with the Sun, is surrounded by a narrow bright ring of diffracted light. Around that is a large, hazy circle of stray light glinting off the occulter (the Moon is inside that circle). Outside that is a small, dimmer region of the sky that is less affected by glint.$

You only die twice:

Recent theoretical models suggested that some stars could destroy themselves in two, successive supernova explosions. Now we have direct visual evidence that such doubled stellar deaths really happen.

https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso2511/ #space #astronomy #science #nature

This image, taken with ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), shows the supernova remnant SNR 0509-67.5. These are the expanding remains of a star that exploded hundreds of years ago in a double-detonation – the first photographic evidence that stars can die with two blasts.

The data were captured with the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) instrument at the VLT. MUSE allows astronomers to map the distribution of different chemical elements, displayed here in different colours. Calcium is shown in blue, and it is arranged in two concentric shells. These two layers indicate that the now-dead star exploded with a double-detonation. Hydrogen (H alpha) is shown in orange.

Alien Landscape at Sunset

#AlicePics #Landscape #Nature #Sunset #Photography

An expanse of water and sand. The low tide has left sandy mudflats with rippling patterns and spiderwebs of little rivers receding into the water. The orange sunset reflects off the wet surfaces, making it look like an alien landscape, bathed in orange light.

I wanted to get a picture of a puffin with the mountains in the background instead of the sea. Without a wide-angle lens, this was the best I could pull off lol. I'm still kind of proud of it, though.

This summer I'm offering several one-day photography tours on Vancouver Island. Spend the day in the temperate rainforest amongst giant moss-covered trees and lush fern and on the rugged coast where wildlife is busy caring for their offspring.

Tours are limited to 3 participants for a better experience and reduced impact on the wildlife and ecosystems. Learn more: https://www.catherinebabault.com/workshops

The picture shows a section of green fern leaves. The leaves are filigree and arranged in a fan shape, with many small, rounded individual leaves that sit on thin, dark stems. The structure appears delicate and light, the leaves partially overlap and form a dense, lively pattern. The colour is a strong, fresh green, reminiscent of a shady forest. Other blurred fern leaves can be seen in the background, emphasising the main motif.

As we kick off into summer, I always like to think back to just a few months ago when summer was just a dream, and cold was the present reality.

It's so easy to forget, especially in the heat of summer, that nature has her seasons, with different features in each one. Cold in winter, hot in summer, BUT, because nature and weather are unpredictable, surprises aren't unexpected.
