ITALY - ROMA - VATICAN - VATICAN GARDENS : LOCATED IN THE OLDEST PART OF THE GARDENS, VILLA PIA (CASINA DI PIO IV) NOW HOUSES THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE PONTIFICAL ACADEMIES. THIS BUILDING WAS TO SERVE BOTH AS A SUMMER RESIDENCE OF THE POPE AND AS A HUNTING LODGE IN THE MIDDLE OF A NATURE THAT, AT THAT TIME, WAS STILL RICH IN GAME. THE SET CONSISTS OF FOUR BUILDINGS, PLACED AROUND AN ELLIPTICAL COURTYARD PAVED WITH MARBLE. ON BACKGROUND, THE DOME OF SAINT PETER'S BASILICA. Photo by Stephane Compoint/Only World/ABACAPRESS.COM

An Elliptical Crater Basin in The Gobi in Hami

An Elliptical Crater Basin in The Gobi in Hami

HAMI, CHINA - OCTOBER 15, 2023 - An elliptical crater basin is seen in the Gobi in Hami, Xinjiang province, China, October 15, 2023. Its shape is a standard oval with a long half-axis of about 5 km and a short half-axis of about 3 km. According to geological data, the crater left by the Carboniferous volcanic eruption in the Elliptic basin is the outer layer of the elliptic magmatic rock and the mountain is the remnant of the crater, and the interior is distributed with large and small jet cones and black and metallic pyroclastic rocks everywhere.

NASA's MAVEN Spacecraft Acquired Stunning Views Of Mars

NASA's MAVEN Spacecraft Acquired Stunning Views Of Mars

Handout photo - The first image was taken in July 2022 during the southern hemisphere’s summer season, which occurs when Mars passes closet to the Sun. The summer season is caused by the tilt of the planet’s rotational axis, similar to seasons on Earth. Argyre Basin, one of Mars’ deepest craters, appears at bottom left filled with atmospheric haze (depicted here as pale pink). Scientists have shown off the Red Planet in a new light with the unveiling of two incredible images of Mars. NASA’s MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN) mission acquired "stunning views" of Mars in two ultraviolet images taken at different points along our neighbouring planet’s orbit around the Sun. By viewing the planet in ultraviolet wavelengths, scientists say they can gain insight into the Martian atmosphere and view surface features in remarkable ways. MAVEN’s Imaging Ultraviolet Spectrograph (IUVS) instrument obtained these global views of Mars in 2022 and 2023 when the planet was near opposite ends of its elliptical orb

Handout photo - The second image is of Mars’ northern hemisphere and was taken in January 2023 after Mars had passed the farthest point in its orbit from the Sun. The rapidly changing seasons in the north polar region cause an abundance of white clouds. The deep canyons of Valles Marineris can be seen in tan at lower left, along with many craters.
