Happy Halloween 2022 From NASA!

It might be Halloween, but we have plenty of “Easter Eggs“ from this video to share. The building’s mural might say Galaxy of Horrors, but it is also a galaxy of wonders. Here, you can learn about all the images painted on the building: The Sun as seen by our orbiting Solar Dynamics Observatory: Tarantula Nebula: Witch Head Nebula: Black Widow Nebula: Helix Nebula: Colliding galaxies: Dead comet: The Andromeda Galaxy: The cat’s eyes get their own nebula (Cat Eye Nebula): Did you notice who signed the mural? That’s Artemis, goddess of the Moon. Our #Artemis I mission is scheduled to launch around the Moon and back on November 14: Whose portraits are in the building? Lyman Strong Spitzer, the renowned astrophysicist for whom the Spitzer Space Telescope was named: Nancy Grace Roman, the astronomer who is considered the “mother“ of the Hubble Space Telescope: Posters on the buildings: The original Galaxy of Horrors.
