Sunglint on the Alabama River
In this June 26, 2023, photo taken from the International Space Station, sunlight shines off the smooth waters of the Alabama River in a phenomenon known as sunglint. When photographing Earth, astronauts often take advantage of sunglints tendency to increase the contrast between water surfaces and surrounding land surfaces. In the 1960s, the Alabama River 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/image...#nasa #space #news #nasa_earth #nasa_earth_science #nasa_science_activation #nasa_find_your_place #nasa_learning_resources #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_lenticular_galaxies #nasa_missions #nasa_the_universe #nasa_blogs #nasa_organizations #nasa_planetary_science

Hubble Observes a Peculiar Galaxy Shape
This NASAESA Hubble Space Telescope image reveals the galaxy, NGC 4694. Most galaxies fall into one of two basic types. Spiral galaxies are young and energetic, filled with the gas needed to form new stars and sporting spiral arms that host these hot, bright youths. Elliptical galaxies have a much more pedestrian look, and their . https://science.nasa.gov/m...#nasa #space #news #nasa_earth #nasa_earth_science #nasa_science_activation #nasa_find_your_place #nasa_learning_resources #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_lenticular_galaxies #nasa_missions #nasa_the_universe #nasa_blogs #nasa_organizations #nasa_planetary_science
