Namely, Death Stars and the Gamma Ray Bursts associated with them.
Gamma ray bursts are the most luminous electromagnetic events in the universe since the Big Bang.

Haloscan is being abolished and the only way to remove from the blog it was to change the template. So I have reverted to a classic template and will be installing something more flashy soon.

The Greatest Jupiter Portrait
Published January 25, 2010 Cassini-Huygens mission , Jupiter , Ralph Buttigieg 1 CommentFrom CICLOPS Jupiter as you see it:
This true color mosaic of Jupiter was constructed from images taken by the narrow angle camera onboard NASA’s Cassini spacecraft starting at 5:31 Universal time on December 29, 2000, as the spacecraft neared Jupiter during its flyby of the giant planet. It is the most detailed global color portrait of Jupiter ever produced; the smallest visible features are ~ 60 km (37 miles) across. The mosaic is composed of 27 images: nine images were required to cover the entire planet in a tic-tac-toe pattern, and each of those locations was imaged in red, green, and blue to provide true color. Although Cassini’s camera can see more colors than humans can, Jupiter here looks the way that the human eye would see it………..
