CASSINI LOOKS OUT FROM SATURN Image Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech, Space Science Institute



This is what Saturn looks like from inside the rings. Last week, for the first time, NASA directed the Cassini spacecraft to swoop between Saturn and its rings. During the dive, the robotic spacecraft took hundreds of images showing unprecedented detail for structures in Saturn's atmosphere. Looking back out, however, the spacecraft was also able to capture impressive vistas. In the featured image taken a few hours before closest approach, Saturn's unusual northern hexagon is seen surrounding the North Pole. Saturn's C ring is the closest visible, while the dark Cassini Division separates the inner B ring from the outer A. A close inspection will find the two small moons that shepherd the F-ring, the farthest ring discernable. This image is raw and will be officially verified, calibrated and released at a later date. Cassini remains on schedule to end its mission by plunging into Saturn's atmosphere on September 15.

JAMES BLUNT
"Don't Give Me Those Eyes"


Staring at you naked
Hotel room in Vegas
I love you but I hate it
And we can't tell anyone

Take this love and break it
I don't think I can take it
Go back to him and fake it
Don't tell him what you've done

But when we're caught in this feeling
And I taste your love, and I taste your love
Whatever the meaning
Well it's not enough, no it's not enough
I want to believe in
In a thing called love, in a thing called love
Caught in this feeling
In this feeling, in this feeling

Don't give me those eyes cause you know me and I can't say no to you
We can't have each other even if we wanted to
In another life, darling, I'll do anything to be with you
We can't have each other even if we wanted to

Don't give me those eyes, don't give me those eyes

Cross your heart and square it
Hotel room in Paris
Kills me that you're married
Cause we know this should be done

But when we're caught in this feeling
And I taste your love, and I taste your love
Whatever the meaning
Well it's not enough, no it's not enough
I want to believe in
In a thing called love, in a thing called love
Caught in this feeling
In this feeling, in this feeling

Don't give me those eyes cause you know me and I can't say no to you

SOLAR TORNADO


A tornado of magnetized plasma is dancing along the sun's northeastern limb today. To see the twister in action, play this movie from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory and keep an eye on the circled plume:







Solar tornadoes are not uncommon, although they are often overlooked. This one is visible because it is jutting above the edge of the sun in profile, easy to see against the black space behind it. If a solar tornado over-rotates, magnetic fields inside the seething vortex can criss, cross, and explode, producing a type of solar flare that requires no sunspot.


JAMES BLUNT - BARTENDER ♥ ♪


JAMES BLUNT 
"Bartender"

It's a little after midnight
There's a couple in the corner
And I wonder what he said because she's crying
And I guess they won't remember
When they wake up in the morning
With a headache from the whiskey and the wine
I know that I have said things I regret when I'm sober
Cause we always hurt the ones we love the most
I messed up and I know it if I hurt you girl I'm sorry
But it's good to see the girl I used to know

We can dance but I can't dance
Maybe we can stick to holding hands
Or should we raise a glass
And forget the past?

If we keep on drinking we're gon' fall back in love
So fill it up, fill it up
We must not be thinking 'cause we can't get enough
So fill it up, fill it up
Bartender can you pour some love?
Bartender can you pour some love?

We can talk about a future, we don't wanna reminisce
Because we both know it was me who got it wrong
But fuck it's good to see you
You look awesome and I miss you
Baby listen now, they're playing our song

We can dance but I can't dance
Maybe we can stick to holding hands
And let's raise a glass
And forget the past

If we keep on drinking we're gon' fall back in love
So fill it up, fill it up
We must not be thinking 'cause we can't get enough
So fill it up, fill it up
Bartender can you pour some love?
Bartender can you pour some love?

And it's closing time, back to yours or mine?
After all this time, you still blow my mind
And it's closing time, back to yours or mine?
After all this time, after all this time

If we keep on drinking we're gon' fall back in love
So fill it up, fill it up
We must not be thinking 'cause we can't get enough
So fill it up, fill it up
Bartender can you pour some love?
Bartender can you pour some love?

 "Camarero"


Un poco después de la medianoche, 
hay una pareja en el rincón, 
y me pregunto qué habrá dicho él,
porque ella está llorando.
Y supongo que no se acordaran
cuando se despierten por la mañana
con dolor de cabeza por el whisky y el vino.
Sé que he dicho cosas 
de las que me arrepiento cuando estoy sobrio, 
porque siempre herimos a aquellos
a los que más queremos.
La he fastidiado y lo sé, 
si te hice daño, chica, lo siento, 
pero me alegro de ver a la chica que solía conocer.
Podríamos bailar, pero yo no sé bailar, 
tal vez podemos limitarnos a tomarnos de las manos.
O ¿deberíamos levantar un vaso
y olvidar el pasado?
Si seguimos bebiendo 
nos vamos a volver a enamorar, 
así que llena la copa, llena la copa.
No debemos estar pensando 
porque no nos saciamos, 
así que llena la copa, llena la copa.
Camarero, ¿puede servir un poco de amor? 
Camarero, ¿puede servir un poco de amor?
Podemos hablar de un futuro, 
no queremos evocar el pasado, 
porque amos sabemos
que fui yo quien se equivocó.
Pero, j*der, me alegro de verte, 
te ves impresionante y te echo de menos, 
cariño, escucha, están tocando nuestra canción.
Podríamos bailar, pero yo no sé bailar, 
tal vez podemos limitarnos a tomarnos de las manos.
O ¿deberíamos levantar un vaso
y olvidar el pasado?
Si seguimos bebiendo 
nos vamos a volver a enamorar, 
así que llena la copa, llena la copa.
No debemos estar pensando 
porque no nos saciamos, 
así que llena la copa, llena la copa.
Camarero, ¿puede servir un poco de amor? 
Camarero, ¿puede servir un poco de amor?
Y es la hora de cerrar, 
¿volvemos a tu casa o la mía?
Después de todo este tiempo, aún me fascinas. 
Y es la hora de cerrar, 
¿volvemos a tu casa o la mía?
Después de todo este tiempo. 
Después de todo este tiempo.
Si seguimos bebiendo 
nos vamos a volver a enamorar, 
así que llena la copa, llena la copa.
No debemos estar pensando 
porque no nos saciamos, 
así que llena la copa, llena la copa.
Camarero, ¿puede servir un poco de amor? 
Camarero, ¿puede servir un poco de amor?







JAMES BLUNT - LOVE ME BETTER ♥ ♪


JAMES BLUNT LYRICS
"Love Me Better"

People say the meanest things
Yeah I've been called a dick, I've been called so many things
I know I've done some shit that I admit deserves it, but that
That don't mean it doesn't sting
Saw you standing outside a bar
Would have said you're beautiful but I've used that line before
Now I've had my share of shallow nights
'Cause I was scared to get it right
So I was hanging with whoever

But baby then you
You love, love, love me, love me better
You love, love, love me, love me better
There's been times I gave myself
To someone else, to someone lesser than you
Love, love, love me, love me better

Love me better

When I met you I was treading water
And baby I know you know I got an eye that wanders
But right now in this car that we're driving to your sister's
All I'm lookin' for is something that's forever

Baby then you...
You love, love, love me, love me better
You love, love, love me, love me better
There've been people that I've loved before
But they were something lesser, 'cause you
Love, love, love me, love me better

Love me
Love me better
Love me
Love me better

People say the meanest things
Yeah, but truth be told, I don't care what they think
I got someone who is lying in my bed right next to me
Yeah she love, love, loves me
Love, love, loves me
Better

Loves me better

There's been times I gave myself
To someone else, to someone lesser than you
Love, love, love me, love me better







LETRA 'LOVE ME BETTER (EN ESPAÑOL)


La gente dice cosas más malas 
Sí, me han llamado pene, me han llamado tantas cosas 
Sé que he hecho muchas cosas malas que admito merecer, pero 
Eso no significa que sienta 
Te vi parada fuera de un bar 
Habría dicho que eres hermosa, pero he usado esas palabras antes 
Ahora he compartido mis noches superficiales 
Porque tuve miedo de hacerlo bien 
Así que estaba colgando con quienquiera 

Pero cariño, entonces tu 
Tú me amas, me amas, me amas mejor 
Tú me amas, me amas, me amas mejor 
Ha habido veces que me ofrecí 
A alguien más, a alguien menos que tú 
Ámame, ámame, ámame mejor 



Ámame mejor 

Cuando te conocí estaba pisando agua 
Y nena, sé que sabes que tengo un ojo que vaga 
Pero ahora en este auto que estamos conduciendo hacia tu hermana 
Todo lo que busco es algo que es para siempre 

Pero cariño, entonces tu 
Tú me amas, me amas, me amas mejor 
Tú me amas, me amas, me amas mejor 
Ha habido veces que me ofrecí 
A alguien más, a alguien que vale menos que tú 
Ámame, ámame, ámame mejor 

Ámame 
Ámame mejor 
Ámame 
Ámame mejor 

La gente dice las cosas más malas 
Sí, pero a decir verdad, no me importa lo que piensen 
Tengo a alguien que está acostada a mi lado en la cama 
Si, ella me ama, ama, me ama 
Ámame, Ámame 
Mejor 

Ámame mejor 

Ha habido veces que me ofrecí 
A alguien más, a alguien que vale menos que tú 
Ámame, ámame, ámame mejor

ARCHES OF SPRING Image Credit & Copyright: Ondrej Kralik



Two luminous arches stretched across the dome of the sky on this northern spring night. After sunset on March 29, the mountain view panorama was captured in 57 exposures from Chopok peak in central Slovakia at an altitude of about 2,000 meters. The arc of the northern Milky Way is visible toward the right, but only after it reaches above the terrestrial lights from the mountain top perspective. Though dusk has passed, a bright patch of celestial light still hovers near the horizon and fades into a second luminous arch of Zodiacal Light, crossing near the center of the Milky Way. Dust in the ecliptic plane reflects sunlight to create the Zodiacal glow, typically prominent after sunset in clear, dark, skies of the northern spring. Almost opposite the Sun, Jupiter shines brightly near the horizon toward the left. Since Jupiter lies near the ecliptic, it appears within the slight brightening of the Zodiacal band also opposite the Sun called the Gegenschein.

EXPLORING THE ANTENNAE Image Credit & Copyright: Data; Subaru, NAOJ, NASA/ESA/Hubble - Assembly and Processing; Roberto Colombari



Some 60 million light-years away in the southerly constellation Corvus, two large galaxies are colliding. Stars in the two galaxies, cataloged as NGC 4038 and NGC 4039, very rarely collide in the course of the ponderous cataclysm that lasts for hundreds of millions of years. But the galaxies' large clouds of molecular gas and dust often do, triggering furious episodes of star formation near the center of the cosmic wreckage. Spanning over 500 thousand light-years, this stunning view also reveals new star clusters and matter flung far from the scene of the accident by gravitational tidal forces. The remarkable mosaicked image was constructed using data from the ground-based Subaru telescope to bring out large-scale and faint tidal streams, and Hubble Space Telescope data of extreme detail in the bright cores. The suggestive visual appearance of the extended arcing structures gives the galaxy pair its popular name - The Antennae.


CASSINI CAPTURES CLOSEST IMAGES OF SATURN'S ATMOSPHERE

CRESCENT SUPERMOON Taken by Ulrich C. Beinert on April 27, 2017 @ Oberursel, Germany



The clouds cleared just in time for sunset and the subsequent crescent Supermoon, just 31 hours after new Moon. I caught it next to the tower and antennas on the Großer Feldberg northwest of Frankfurt, Germany.



" SUPER LUNA CRECIENTE " DESDE ROSARIO - ARGENTINA //// FOTOS: ESMERALDA SOSA


CRESCENT SUPERMOON: In recent years, we've heard a lot about supermoons--full Moons that are extra big and bright because they occur on the perigee side of the Moon's elliptical orbit. 

Now, let us introduce you to the crescent supermoon.

 On Thursday, April 27th, the crescent Moon occurs at perigee, making it as much as 14% wider and 30% brighter than other crescent Moons of the year.







LYRIDS IN SOUTHERN SKIES Image Credit & Copyright: Yuri Beletsky (Carnegie Las Campanas Observatory, TWAN)




Earth's annual Lyrid meteor shower peaked before dawn on April 22nd, as our fair planet plowed through dust from the tail of long-period comet Thatcher. Seen from the high, dark, and dry Atacama desert a waning crescent Moon and brilliant Venus join Lyrid meteor streaks in this composited view. Captured over 5 hours on the night of April 21/22, the meteors stream away from the shower's radiant, a point not very far on the sky from Vega, alpha star of the constellation Lyra. The radiant effect is due to perspective as the parallel meteor tracks appear to converge in the distance. In the foreground are domes of the Las Campanas Observatory housing (left to right) the 2.5 meter du Pont Telescope and the 1.3 meter Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) telescope.
