The wildfire season is upon us in Alaska. Tell tale signs was the very red sun accompanying the sting of the air when taking a breath last week.

That reminds me of the solar eclipse observed from NASA's Perseverance Rover:

Well spotted Akira  -  that eclipse was really cool, and sort of surprising when one are used to the moon having a round shape.

Thanks Keith, as annoying the wildfire smoke is, it is good that one can at least get some nice sunsets out of it. It has temporarily cleared up, but others are in the coming.

Nice & moody Øivind

The UK had dust spread from the Sahara at the weekend, with dramatic pink skies & curious rainbows

Thanks Akira too.
I have now learned that Phobos is Mars’ potato-shaped moon!

Colin, thank you, from me as well, for the link.  The pink sunset and red/yellow rainbow are impressive!
