Happy Monday! Here are three Aztec stone snakes for you. The greenish one (13th-16th century) is from the Cleveland Museum of Art and the other two (15th-early 16th century) are from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, two open access collections on JSTOR.

How a Total Solar Eclipse Ended Video Credit & Copyright: David Duarte

Explanation: How does a total solar eclipse end? Yes, the Moon moves out from fully blocking the Sun, but in the first few seconds of transition, interesting things appear. The first is called a diamond ring. Light might stream between mountains or through relative lowlands around the Moon’s edge, as seen from your location, making this sudden first light, when combined with the corona that surrounds the Moon, look like a diamond ring. Within seconds other light streams appear that are called, collectively, Bailey’s beads. In the featured video, it may seem that the pink triangular prominence on the Sun is somehow related to where the Sun begins to reappear, but it is not. Observers from other locations saw Bailey’s beads emerge from different places around the Moon, away from the iconic triangular solar prominence visible to all. The video was captured with specialized equipment from New Boston, Texas, USA on April 8, 2024.

The Eyes in Markarian’s Galaxy Chain Image Credit & Copyright: Mike Selby

Explanation: Across the heart of the Virgo Galaxy Cluster lies a string of galaxies known as Markarian’s Chain. Prominent in Markarian’s Chain are these two interacting galaxies, NGC 4438 (left) and NGC 4435 - also known as The Eyes. About 50 million light-years away, the two galaxies appear to be about 100,000 light-years apart in this sharp close-up, but have likely approached to within an estimated 16,000 light-years of each other in their cosmic past. Gravitational tides from the close encounter have ripped away at their stars, gas, and dust. The more massive NGC 4438 managed to hold on to much of the material torn out in the collision, while material from the smaller NGC 4435 was more easily lost. The remarkably deep image of this crowded region of the universe also includes many more distant background galaxies.

HiPOD: Gullies in a Crater near Newton Crater

The objective of this observation is to observe gullies in a crater. Pictures like this will help us increase our knowledge of the distribution of Martian gullies. Some of the gullies have quite wide, branched alcoves, and there are ridges of material at the base. Some researchers have suggested that the ridges are from former glaciers that came before the gullies. The floor of this crater is covered with pits and contains some small ring mold craters. (Grayscale cutout is less than 5 km across; enhanced color is less than 1 km.)

HOTEL WARRE

On the edge of the center of one of the most touristic towns in the Belgian Ardennes, we found this abandoned hotel. The building is not a classified heritage site and is not an architectural heritage. So there is absolutely nothing to be found about its history...

The "problem" with these types of locations (and also the reason why I usually avoid them) is that heaps of left-behind stuff encourage some people to create "pretty scenes". These staged scenes are abundant here, which makes the location rather uninteresting.

The hotel was on our way back from France, where we spent a day admiring abandoned industrial heritage. To end the day we made a quick stop here and, after some hesitation, decided to take a few pictures, since we were already there anyway...
