Our walk had the potential to be a miserable soggy experience….. instead the clouds blew over and the sun came out 🥰

Feeling very fortunate to have seen this! Cameras enhance the colours but I was able to see with just my own eyes the subtle pinks and the stripes before I took the photo 🥰

Never forget that in 1861 Charles Darwin wrote in a letter to a friend…

“But I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything"

50 years after it was first dreamt up by Douglas Hofstadter, this fascinating fractal butterfly has been found in a real physical system (in graphene, no less)!

I’ve been reading scifi for over 40 years. Back then I found it inspiring and longed for a future where those technologies existed. Nowadays I’m not so sure, and wish for a simpler life…

📷 This NASA/ESA #Hubble Space Telescope image shows spiral galaxy NGC 4900 and a prominent star. They appear to be close to each other, but the star is in our own galaxy, a mere 7109 light-years away, and the galaxy is about 45 million light-years away 🔭
