NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

Magnificent spiral galaxy NGC 4565 is viewed edge-on from planet Earth. Also known as the Needle Galaxy for its narrow profile, bright NGC 4565 is a stop on many telescopic tours of the northern sky, in the faint but well-groomed constellation Coma Berenices. This sharp, colorful image reveals the galaxy's boxy, bulging central core cut by obscuring dust lanes that lace NGC 4565's thin galactic plane. NGC 4565 itself lies about 40 million light-years distant and spans some 100,000 light-years. Easily spotted with small telescopes, sky enthusiasts consider NGC 4565 to be a prominent celestial masterpiece Messier missed.

What Once Was, Perhaps

Age has a way of,
making us more visually
appealing when your eyes,
start to fail.

Awaiting

Awaiting a sunny
day after all the rain.

A Loss

A loss of memory,
A loss of love,
The pain, intense,
coming from above.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

What if you saw your shadow on Mars and it wasn't human? Then you might be the Perseverance rover exploring Mars. Perseverance has been examining the Red Planet since 2021, finding evidence of its complex history of volcanism and ancient flowing water, and sending breathtaking images across the inner Solar System. Pictured here in February of 2024, Perseverance looks opposite the Sun and across Neretva Vallis in Jezero Crater, with a local hill visible at the top of the frame. The distinctively non-human shadow of the car-sized rover is visible below center, superposed on scattered rocks. Perseverance, now working without its flying companion Ingenuity, continues to search Mars for signs of ancient life.

This writing discussed when I was
a 20 year old US Navy member.
We visited this Island for some R&R,
or rest and relaxation while dropping off
medical supplies. 1954 or 1956.
Enjoy.

To age, is to succeed in life.
Not aging is our end.
Enjoy life to the fullest,
loving what and who you know now.

Reality

There are sometimes,
in this life we lead,
where reality feeds,
into a fantasy.
