ALT A self-portrait photo of the Perseverance rover on the surface of Mars, taken with a camera on its robotic arm. The six-wheel rover sits in a rocky desert landscape. Its robotic "head" is pointed down to one rock where there is a small hole drilled, along with a small pile of light-colored tailings from the drill.
ALT A close-up photo of layered rocks. Between two layers, in reddish mudstone, are small, dark spots, slightly lighter at the middle of each spot.
ALT A digital planetarium projection of the sky above the Vera Rubin Observatory. Above the telescope building in the foreground, lines are drawn between the stars to show the constellations. The telescope appears to be looking towards Virgo.
ALT A fulldome image showing the area outside the Vera Rubin Observatory while it works at night. Overhead, the Milky Way runs through the densely packed stars, interlaced with dark dust and pink clouds of hydrogen gas (normally invisible to the unaided eye). The white telescope turret and various outbuildings can be seen around the horizon.
