And now, pets.
Just because. Rosa not pictured, because she can be hard to get nice pictures of! She keeps a lower profile and when she’s around she’s acting weird. I’ll keep trying, though!
Starbirth, in progress
I saw this image on one of NASA’s Flickr streams and I had to share it. It’s a Hubble image of a star-forming region called the “Chameleon Cloud Complex”. Look how gorgeous this is! Here’s some explanation: The segment in … Continue reading
