Luna-FGL.jpgRising...125 visiteDomenica 5 Agosto, 2012, Oliviero, Pap della nostra Grande Amica e, da tempo, Partner della nostra Fondazione, Ivana Tognoloni, ha lasciato questa Dimensione (sovente, ahinoi, fatta di Sofferenza) e si avviato lungo il Cammino che, auspicabilmente, conduce a Nuovi Lidi e Nuove Esistenze, da qualche parte, oltre i nostri Orizzonti Visibili. Tutta l'Astronave "Lunar Explorer" ed il suo Equipaggio, salutano Oliviero, nella Speranza che Ivana possa accettare l'Inevitabile e farsene una Ragione, e con la Certezza che, un giorno, Ivana ed Oliviero si ritroveranno ancora. Da qualche parte.
Con infinito affetto, Paolo C. Fienga & Lunar Explorer Italia

Iridescent_Clouds.pngA Pileus Iridescent Cloud Over Ethiopia (by Esther Havens - Light the World) 232 visite"...Le creature che non hanno altre virt, se non la loro viscida meschinit, la lurida perfidia, la cieca ferocia e l'inesauribile ed insaziabile dedizione al crimine ed alla rovina degli altri e del Mondo, al pari dei parassiti, di qualunque specie e classe esse sano, non vanno comprese: devono solo essere messe in condizione di non nuocere.
E se questa opzione non fosse percorribile, allora devono essere eliminate. Perch questa la Giustizia, questo il Bene Comune e, in ultima analisi, questo il Volere di Dio..."

Suns.jpgTwo Suns in the Sunset...270 visiteIn my rear view mirror, the Sun is going down
Sinking, behind bridges in the road...
And I think of all the good things
That we have left undone,
And I suffer premonitions,
Confirm suspicions,
Of the holocaust to come...
The rusty wire that holds the cork
That keeps the anger in,
Gives way,
And suddenly, it's day again!
The Sun is in the East,
Even though the day is done,
Two Suns in the sunset...
Hmmmmmmmmm....
Could be the Human Race is run?!?
Like the moment when your brakes lock
And you slide toward the big truck,
And stretch the frozen moments with your fear...
And you'll never hear their voices!
And you'll never see their faces!
You have no recourse to the law anymore!...
And as the windshield melts,
And my tears evaporate...
Leaving only charcoal to defend,
Finally I understand
The feelings of the few:
Ashes and Diamonds,
Foe and Friend,
We were all equal in the end...

Solar_Green-Flash.jpgA "Green Flash" from the Sun112 visiteDalla Rubrica "NASA - Picture of the Day" del giorno 4 Gennaio 2011:"Many people think it is just a myth. Others think it is true but its cause isn't yet known. Adventurers pride themselves on having seen it.
What is it?
It's a "Green Flash" from the Sun. The truth is the Green Flash does exist and its cause is well understood.
Just as the setting Sun disappears completely from view, a last glimmer appears startlingly green.
The effect is typically visible only from locations with a low, distant horizon, and lasts just a few seconds. A Green Flash is also visible for a rising Sun, but takes better timing to spot.
A dramatic Green Flash, as well as an even more rare Blue Flash, was caught in the above photograph recently observed during a Sunset visible from Teide Observatory at Tenerife, Cannary Islands, Spain.
Obviously, the Sun does not partly turn either green or blue: the effect is caused by different layers of the Earth's Atmosphere, together acting like a prism".MareKromium

Retrograde_Mars-TT-2010.jpgRetrograde Mars78 visiteDa "NASA - Picture of the Day" del giorno 13 Giugno 2010:"Why would Mars appear to move backwards? Most of the time, the apparent motion of Mars in Earth's Sky is in one direction, slow but steady in front of the far distant stars. About every two years, however, the Earth passes Mars as they orbit around the Sun. During the most recent such pass late last year and early this year, Mars as usual, loomed large and bright.
Also during this time, Mars appeared to move backwards in the sky, a phenomenon called "Retrograde Motion".
Pictured above is a series of images digitally stacked so that all of the stars images coincide. Here, Mars appears to trace out a loop in the sky. At the center of the loop, Earth passed Mars and the retrograde motion was the highest. Retrograde Motion can also be seen for other Planets of the Solar System". MareKromium

FaithFullMoon090409_westlake.jpgObscuring the Moon...77 visiteCaption NASA:"October's bright Full Moon is also known as the "Harvest Moon".
Traditionally, the Harvest Moon is the Full Moon closest to the Autumnal Equinox. But in this snapshot, the Full Moon could be called the "Old Faith-Full Moon".
Taken on September 4, 2009, the picture combines the regularly occurring lunar phase with Old Faithful Geyser in Yellowstone National Park, named for its dependable eruptions.
Shining on the well-known geyser's towering pillar from behind, the moonlight creates an eerie halo surrounding convoluted shapes.
Faithfully, the Full Moon itself is bright enough to be seen through the dense swirling steam near the top".MareKromium

Venus.jpgDaytime Venus74 visiteDa "NASA - Picture of the Day" del giorno 9 Aprile 2009:"This remarkable picture of a slender crescent Venus was made during daylight hours on March 26, 2009.
Venus was then very near Inferior Conjunction, its closest approach to a point on a line directly between Earth and the Sun. So, daylight was a good time to carefully record the telescopic view when both Venus and Sun were high in the daytime sky.
Near Inferior Conjunction, Venus is closest to us and at its largest apparent size, but Venus is also strongly backlit by Sunlight, presenting its night side partially outlined by a narrow crescent.
What makes the image remarkable are the faint arcs extending beyond the sunlit crescent around to the night side of Venus, due to sunlight filtering through the Planet's dense Atmosphere.
Astronomer Eddie Guscott reports from his site in Essex, England, that the faint extensions came and went as the Earth's atmospheric blurring changed. His image was constructed from 85 of the sharpest frames chosen from thousands taken with a webcam and telescope".MareKromium
