Germany’s 19th Century ‘Devil’s Bridge’ Reflection Draws A Perfect Circle In The Water

Saturn and rings

This raw, unprocessed image of Saturn was taken on 12 August 2017 and received on Earth 13 August 2017.

The camera was pointing toward Saturn at approximately 938955 kilometres away, and the image was taken using the CL1 and RED filters.

The image has not been validated or calibrated. A validated/calibrated image will be archived with the Planetary Data System in 2018.

The Cassini Solstice Mission is a joint United States and European endeavor.

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C.

The Cassini orbiter was designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging team consists of scientists from the US, England, France, and Germany.

The imaging operations center and team lead (Dr. C. Porco) are based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colo.

Things I Love, part one

I love history. I think it’s important to understand and remember the past because history is what made the human race the human race. I love planet Earth. I think everyone should see the world because no two places are the same, just like the people in these places. No place is just like your place, and no one is just like you. I love people. I think human beings are fascinating. Every brain works and thinks differently. The human consciousness is incredibly interesting. Sometimes two people’s consciousness will clash and fight, sometimes they will decide they like the company of each other, and sometimes they fall in love with each other and feel lost without the other. I love my faith. I think it is impossible to understand the concepts above without believing that something created it on purpose. The history of the universe didn't just happen. Earth didn't just poof into existence. The human brain would not be as detailed and intricate and amazing if a higher power was not responsible. My faith makes the world make sense to me. I may not share the same beliefs with everyone, and that’s ok. It works for some people, but not everyone, and that’s ok. Another thing I love: peace. The ability to coexist nonviolently with others is a beautiful gift that few possess.

These are some of the things I love.

cute date idea: we sit by the river and watch the sky. you talk about the universe and I can’t help but grin at the fact your eyes shine brighter than the sun rising in the background. you are my universe. i want to love you forever.

Ama şu Kızkulesinin aklı olsa

Galata kulesine varır

Bir sürü çocukları olur.”
