NGC 1672: Barred Spiral Galaxy from Hubble
Many spiral galaxies have bars across their centers. Even our own Milky Way Galaxy is thought to have a modest central bar. Prominently barred spiral galaxy NGC 1672, featured here, was captured in spectacular detail in an image taken by the orbiting Hubble Space Telescope. Visible are dark filamentary dust lanes, young clusters of bright blue stars, red emission nebulas of glowing hydrogen gas, a long bright bar of stars across the center, and a bright active nucleus that likely houses a supermassive black hole. Light takes about 60 million years to reach us from NGC 1672, which spans about 75,000 light years across. NGC 1672, which appears toward the constellation of the Dolphinfish (Dorado), is being studied to find out how a spiral bar contributes to star formation in a galaxy's central regions.

This odd site, located in the hills above a valley, is the subject of a recent archaeological investigation. What was it?
Peixe cai do céu e atinge mulher no rosto
Uma mulher na Philadelphia alega que estava andando quando um grande peixe caiu do céu em cima dela.
Lisa Lobree tinha saído de uma aula de ginástica quando, ao ouvir um barulho nas árvores acima dela, viu um grande peixe cair e bater no rosto.
“Achei que estava pirando!”, disse ela. “Depois senti o cheiro nojento.”
Felizmente, o peixe-gato, tinha cerca 30 cm de comprimento e causou apenas ferimentos leves.
“Foi uma experiência não divertida”, disse Lobree. “Mas há tantas coisas piores que poderia ter acontecido”.
“É provavelmente uma das coisas mais estranhas que aconteceram na minha vida.”

“Split the pigeon in half – add other meat.
Prepare the water, add fat and salt to taste;
Breadcrumbs, onion, samidu, leeks, and garlic
(first soak the herbs in milk)
When it is cooked it is ready to serve.”
- One of the earliest recipes. It was found on an Old Babylonian tablet dating to around 1800 BCE. Though seemingly simple, the minimalist instructions mean the recipe would only have been useful to experienced chefs working in the high echelons of society who could fill in the gaps.

A Streamlined Form in Lethe Vallis, Mars
This image shows a portion of Lethe Vallis, an outflow channel that also transported lava. This is one of only a few places on Mars where these pristine-appearing landforms have been identified. The channel formed by catastrophic floods, during which it produced the prominent crater-cored, teardrop-shaped island in the middle.
