NASA astronaut Chris Cassidy uses a 400mm lens on a digital still camera to photograph a target of opportunity on Earth, 250 miles below, on June 3, 2013. The many-windowed Cupola is the best place on the International Space Station for taking pictures. Cassidy has been aboard the orbital outpost since late March and is due to return to Earth in September.
The Inspired by kumakey’s “roBa,” the moNa2 is a small wireless split keyboard developed by shakupan and pooh.polo, designed to keep a desk feeling open and unclaimed. Two compact halves sit apart with a quiet gap between them, leaving room for a notebook or tools without forcing a single, monolithic footprint.
The layout is restrained: low, close spacing with a built-in thumb-controlled ball that keeps basic navigation under the hand instead of pushing you toward a mouse. The whole object reads as light hardware rather than a centerpiece, favors packing and redeploying—such as magnets on the underside so the halves can join together for transport.
It runs wire-free and is meant to be adjusted over time rather than treated as a fixed appliance. Typical usage notes describe it lasting roughly a couple of weeks of frequent daily use before needing attention again, with the exact cadence depending on how it’s set up and used.
Gordon von Steiner’s “Troya” is a visually striking short film set in the Troieshchyna neighborhood of Kyiv, known for its stark Soviet-era architecture. The film explores themes of urban isolation and resilience through a series of compelling and gritty vignettes. Von Steiner’s direction captures the raw and unembellished aesthetics of Troieshchyna, highlighting its dense clusters of monotonous apartment buildings and the lives of its residents. The film juxtaposes the area’s bleak physical environment with moments of unexpected beauty and humanity, creating a powerful narrative that resonates with the viewer .

On May 19, 2005, NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit captured this stunning view as the Sun sank below the rim of Gusev crater on Mars. This Panoramic Camera mosaic was taken around 6:07 in the evening of the rover's 489th Martian day, or sol.
Sunset and twilight images are occasionally acquired by the science team to determine how high into the atmosphere the Martian dust extends, and to look for dust or ice clouds. Other images have shown that the twilight glow remains visible, but increasingly fainter, for up to two hours before sunrise or after sunset. The long Martian twilight (compared to Earth's) is caused by sunlight scattered around to the night side of the planet by abundant high altitude dust. Similar long twilights or extra-colorful sunrises and sunsets sometimes occur on Earth when tiny dust grains that are erupted from powerful volcanoes scatter light high in the atmosphere.
The Spec Pant ensures the wearer is invisibly armed for everyday wear despite their apparent tailored simplicity. This design is extremely adaptable, with a side pocket array that's easily accessible but visually concealed, while a cotton/poly twill WINDSTOPPER® fabric with a cotton/poly tricot backer offers superior protection.
