Venus was at superior conjunction a few days ago (January 6th). Mars is at conjunction today (January 9th), and Jupiter will be at opposition tomorrow (January 10th). The close timing of these events results in the planetary alignment depicted in this view of the Solar System.🔭

The open star cluster is only 444 light years from earth which makes it the nearest Messier object to earth.

The rest of Congress' budget is good news for NASA: Trump had requested halving NASA's science spending, which would have killed dozens of existing missions (see this story from last May). Congress disagreed, maintaining NASA science at 99% of last year. #planetsci 🔭🧪

Mars Sample Return - a planned mission to retrieve the rocks collected by the Perseverance rover and bring them to Earth for lab analysis - has been effectively cancelled by US Congress.

The budget does provide some funding for technology development of a future replacement mission. #planetsci 🔭🧪
My latest: The compromise spending bill is mostly full of good news for NASA science. But there is one off note: Mars Sample Return, as it's been currently devised, has no way forward.

Commentary: Power grab may energize Newsom and Democrats. But it won't fix their bigger problem
Partisan redistricting may stick it to Republicans, but does nothing to address Democrats' lack of a more resonant message. Newsom seems only to care about his presidential hopes.
