Venus Makes Oxygen During The Day

Venus Makes Oxygen During The Day

Venus makes Oxygen During the Day

Ok, it's little more than an excuse to show a beautiful image of a fascinating planet, but in a recent scientific study, it was discovered in the upper atmosphere of Venus, during the day (which lasts a little longer than our day, at 243 Earth Days !!) Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide is broken down by sunlight into it's Carbon and Oxygen. The oxygen then moves around the planet, and over to the night side too, where it plays an important role in the upper atmosphere of the planet.

Amusingly, a full year on Venus is only 225 Earth days, making a day on Venus longer than a year on Venus.

I guess the upshot of this is, every day is your Birthday on Venus, so Happy Venusian Birthday to you all !

NGC 2170: Angel Nebula Abstract Art Image Credit & Copyright: David Moulton

Explanation: Is this a painting or a photograph? In this celestial abstract art composed with a cosmic brush, dusty nebula NGC 2170, also known as the Angel Nebula, shines just above the image center. Reflecting the light of nearby hot stars, NGC 2170 is joined by other bluish reflection nebulae, a red emission region, many dark absorption nebulae, and a backdrop of colorful stars. Like the common household items that abstract painters often choose for their subjects, the clouds of gas, dust, and hot stars featured here are also commonly found in a setting like this one – a massive, star-forming molecular cloud in the constellation of the Unicorn (Monoceros). The giant molecular cloud, Mon R2, is impressively close, estimated to be only 2,400 light-years or so away. At that distance, this canvas would be over 60 light-years across.
