Moon Crazy. The bright full Moon in the night sky.
Transit of Venus Ridgecrest, California This moment is called "second contact." It is the point where Venus has ingressed into the interior of the sun. Even though completely inside, there is a momentary illusion that Venus is still touching the sun's limb. This illusion is called a "black drop effect" or to a lesser extent, the "teardrop effect." You can create the same illusion but very nearly touching your thumb and any other finger of your choosing. Right before they make contact, they will appear to touch. Go ahead and try it, you know you want to! The next tranist of Venus will be in 2117 (not a typo) so start planning ahead.&nbsp; There will be a transit of Mercury in 2016.
Worlds Without End PB Framed Black-Blue 24x18J As of 3-22-13, 861 planets outside our solar system (exoplanets) have been identified--in less than a decade. In the Milky Way Galaxy alone, there may be 100-400 billion exoplanets. Astronomers report that "at least 17 billion" Earth-sized exoplanets are present in the Milky Way Galaxy. While not all of these may be located in hospitable, life-promoting orbits around their parent star, the so-called "Goldilocks Zone," it is not unreasonable to expect that many millions of planets in our galaxy will support life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrasolar_planet. I find this an exciting, but mind-boggling possibility: a stylized depiction of this possibility is shown above. An endless number of exoplanets. This fractal is comprised of sphere and diamond fractal patterns and nested spheres. Viewing at the original size permits a better appreciation of this fractal pattern at various sizes.
