Kosmos-428-SA has most likely reentered by now. Have not heard any reports of observations. Space Force will at some point issue a reentry estimate - nothing yet.

Old friend, Lagoon Nebula rising in the east. Rushing with the brightening dawn sky. Managed to get 15 minutes total exposure.
Used the star removal tool in the DwarfLab app. Not bad!

Now that Universe Today is totally ad-free, we can do whatever we want.
And what we want is a 5-part overview of the new science coming from JWST's Cycle 4.

Yes. FL too short for planets. Maybe slightly good for moon and sun. but mainly for wide angle and deepsky. Itβs more similar to a DSLR with lens. I got this mainly for portability. getting lazy to drag full AP gear π€

The chance of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting out planet in 2032 is now 1.5%, or 1 in 67.
The OVERWHELMING likelihood is that the asteroid will miss Earth.
But for the first time ever, we might have to seriously consider a deflection mission soon.
Let me explain. π§΅ (1/x)
Sure. Thatβll awesome!

But how does it get launched from the Sun in the first place? Thanks to @ESASolarOrbiter, we now have a surprising answer π www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed...
