So then, could you say that Nothing = Everything ?
I guess that nothing would be the space in between everything that is something. And all things that are something combined together with nothing = Everything
You definitely must have been the teacher's pet in class
Waiting for those pics too!
Yes...It will be great to see some pics and data on our mysterious Jupiter planet, which many refer to as a star that never got massive enough to ignite. I wasn't a teacher's pet (whatever that is)

Well just thought you must have been the smartest guy in the class, the teachers always love those well behaved studious types!
Here's a great photo of Jupiter that everyone may enjoy, while we are waiting on photos from Juno

Cool Nebula http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap160715.html
-
^That is a beautiful nebula! Just saw this today, a bit worrying... that's an awfully big hole on the sun!! Hope it doesn't toast us, it's feeling pretty warm here already!
There's nothing we can do http://www.news.com.au/technology/science/space/nasa-is-monitoring-an-enormous-dark-region-spreading-across-the-surface-of-the-sun/news-story/09ee8292bfb45461d1f33773a06d303b

This is such a cool video, going between visible light spectrums, to infrared ... In the Orion Nebula
-
That ESO link looks pretty cool! Am going to have to check it out more when I have time.

A Round Ball Of 100,000 Stars 150 Light Years Wide (which is how far light would travel in 150 years at 186,000 miles per second) Beyond Comprehension! http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap160727.html

"Space telescope saw bright comet plunge toward the sun on Aug. 3-4, reaching speeds of nearly 1.3 million miles per hour Comet was torn apart and vaporized by the intense forces near the sun" Short video here... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3724208/Watch-amazing-moment-comet-crashes-fiery-death-passes-past-sun-1-3-MILLION-miles-hour.html?ITO=1490

Wow, saw that video, but that was an interesting link explaining it! Also amazing was the Coronal Mass Ejection CME shooting off to the left! Hard to imagine how fast that comet was traveling!!
Over a million MPH!!! I thought the snowy ice ball theory was going to change, after that almost failed landing where it didn't land properly because the comet wasn't a snowy ice type landing!? More CME's on APOD http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap160731.html

That comet could have traveled from here to the moon in around 15 minutes. They had 3 landing options when they tried to land on the other comet here awhile back, but an unusual event occurred. It was spewing out material as I remember. It didn't land in a very stable manor and was also blocked from the amount of sunlight it needed to function
-
I thought I remember reading that they were going to have crampons at the bottom of the landing feet, considering they thought it was going to be landing on a "snowball" Good thing, because how I'm remembering it... if they did have crampons, it would have bounced around on landing. It also landed in a particularly shaded area. I think one solar panel may not have deployed... so it eventually didn't get enough sunlight to keep the one solar panel, running things. I'm wondering if it was the comet shown that was the size of LA? That one had a shady pocket in the middle.

The harpoons failed to deploy and secure it to the comet. When in doubt...YOUTUBE!
Lots of other cool videos there about it too...

Have had trouble finding info on Juno! Any good photos from Juno?
Just watched the long video, that was really interesting, thanks for posting that one! As it wakes up, if Philae is still attached to Rosetta, then it ought to get really interesting ! As for the size, the photo next to LA is really surprising to me!

Here's the best pics and info links I could find on Juno so far... http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/spaceimages/details.php?id=PIA20701 http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/juno/main/index.html And this one also has Juno cam... https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/

Thanks so much for those links!
Didn't realize the scope of the mission and saw a couple of confusing articles! This is so exciting, I want to paint the red spot of Jupiter! So are you watching the Perseid Meteor Shower tomorrow? Wish I could see it from a mountaintop in Colorado! http://www.nasa.gov/topics/solarsystem/features/watchtheskies/perseid-meteor-shower-aug11-12.html

Thanks, for the head up on the persieds! I watched them one night way out in the country on a delivery run several years ago. One little streak of light after another. Did you see that cool counter at the bottom of the misionjuno link? Time Since Arrival 0037 Days 17:34:45 hrs.

I did, it was a relief, I didn't realize. There was a great chart, I'll have to see if I can find it!
