Workers mount giant trampoline like ‘fishnet’ attached to four massive arms onto SpaceX’s nose cone catching ship named Mr. Steven on Feb 14, 2019 docked in Port Canaveral, FL. The giant net will try to catch falling payload fairings with a giant catchers mitt mid-air before they are damaged by splashdown in the ocean. Mr Steven arrived in port on
Opportunity rover at Perseverance Valley – Farewell view Featured on Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) on Feb. 15, 2019. This pre-dust storm panoramic mosaic view was one of the last ones taken by NASA’s Opportunity rover and shows the spectacular view from her approximate current position as of June 2018 after traveling halfway down the fluid carved slope of
Opportunity rover explores around the rim of 70 meter wide Santa Maria Crater on the long trek from Victoria Crater to Endeavour crater in January 2011 on the 7th anniversary of her landing on the Red Planet. The rim of Endeavour – her final resting place – is visible in the mosaic on the horizon at the right, just above
Opportunity rover looks south from the top of Perseverance Valley along the rim of Endeavour Crater on Mars in this partial self portrait including the rover deck and solar panels. Perseverance Valley descends from the right and terminates down near the crater floor. This navcam camera photo mosaic was assembled from raw images taken on Sol 4736 (20 May 2017)
SpaceX’s nose cone catching ship named Mr. Steven sailed into Port Canaveral, FL, on Feb. 11, 2019. The ship will use a giant net to catch falling payload fairings with a giant catchers mitt before they are damaged by splashdown in the ocean. Two fairings sit on deck in this photo.
