Nelots, w Phobos: Doomed Moon of Mars

I mean in the grand scheme of things, all moons, planets, and even stars are doomed eventually. For a species with an average life expectancy of 80-some years, there ain’t much of a difference in 50 million and 5 billion years anyway.

guy,

Our moon is escaping us though

Nelots,

True, though as far as I’m aware our sun will destroy Earth and its moon long before it manages to break free.

This seems to be the source:

…nasa.gov/…/global-image-of-io-true-color/

Thanks! My opinion is that images from NASA, ESA etc should always link to the source. They always include interesting information about what is in the image. It is also nice if I don’t need to search the database for ages.

Yeah… I kind of wish it was a request of the channel. I’ve found a few of the sources now and it’s mostly on this channel people seem to post other people’s images with no references

I guess OP found this in yesterday’s ‘Astronomy Picture of the Day’, which includes the link you sent. Would’ve cost a second to include it in the post.

I wonder what we can do to help motivate including links to sources

I messaged the moderator asking if we could update the channel description but haven’t heard back

Not true color. This is an “enhanced” photo.

Mac,

Indeed.

This color mosaic uses the near-infrared, green and violet filters (slightly more than the visible range) of the spacecraft’s camera and approximates what the human eye would see.

bear,

It world also appear much darker.

I didn’t think about that. It almost looks metallic, or like the shading you see with 3d modelling software

sukhmel,

The source claims that enhanced is this one: …nasa.gov/…/global-image-of-io-false-color/

What is Io’s footprint?

fartographer,

Round

Sequentialsilence, w Over 40,000 near-Earth asteroids have been detected since 1990

@Innerworld could you please add the link to the source(s) to your posts?

I guess you are just pasting the Astronomy Picture of the Day in here, which is nice. But maybe link to the relevant post (or its original source), so that people not aware of this can learn from the added context the sources provide.
