Absolutely LOVE looking at new impacts on planetary bodies. This one is on the Moon, as seen by the LROC-NAC instrument, and happened in 2012. The new crater is about 70 m across, and would definitely hurt.

@PlanetaryAnna So good to see the corona database being updated! I helped Ellen and Sue with the 2001 version as an undergrad, yikes!

@AyrtekCricket Ha! I'm 45 and did exactly the same thing on Monday night. Very dangerous, as I'm now going to think this is a shot I can actually play for real...

The final resting place of the @NASAPersevere Ingenuity helicopter on Mars. Sat near the crest of a sand ripple, which might (eventually) bury her. What an achievement. (Image upscaled, sharpened, cleaned, Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/ASU/P Grindrod)

@this_is_tckb @stim3on @NASAAmes @AndrewAnnex @NASA I’m afraid not. I only use ASP very occasionally (and basically) and with .cub’s. We use commercial SocetSet after pre-processing in USGS ISIS.

Wow, screen grab from the SLIM update. I think this is the view from the lunar surface by the LEV2 rover.

Wow! I hadn't seen this before - thermal camera view of the OSIRIS-REx reentry through Earth's atmosphere. Just a single frame from a video. Watch the tail evolve from 11:16

@gwent_robbins @ClaireCousins10 @MadMattGunn I think we can, but overseas tuition fees are not covered by the studentships I'm afraid, which would be ~£20k per year.

@AlexStoken @CVPR I saw your work courtesy of @stim3on - it is so cool! As a planetary scientist, who spends waaaay too much time georeferencing images, my mind is racing at the impact a similar approach (on a much simpler problem) could have!

@sfjcody But were they 66 million years ago?! :) The Indian plate has been moving at a fair old lick to get where it is today.
