Mars Set for Amazing Close Encounter with Earth
Mars grows dramatically in brightness and size this month and is visible by 10 30 p.m. by month end.
The best views are in the early morning hours. Earth's closest approach with Mars is only a month away. It's the closest Mars has been to us since 2003.
On June 27 Mars opposition occurs. That's when Mars, Earth and the sun all line up, with Earth directly in the middle.
Four days later on July 31 Mars and Earth are nearest to each other in their orbits around the sun. Mars is over 200 thousand miles closer to Earth at closest approach than at opposition. But you won't see much change in the diameter and brightness between these two dates.
As Mars comes closer to Earth in its orbit, it appears larger and larger and brighter and brighter.
During this time Mars rises after the sun sets. The best time to see Mars at its brightest is when it is highest in the sky, around midnight in July and a little earlier in August.
Through a telescope you can make out some of the dark features on the planet, some of the lighter features and sometimes polar ice and dust storm-obscured areas showing very little detail.
After close approach, Earth sweeps past Mars quickly.
So the planet appears large and bright for only a couple weeks.

A possible explanation for varying measurements of Venus's rotation rate - A trio of researchers with the University of California and Sorbonne Universités has found a possible explanation for why Venus probes have found different day lengths for the planet. In their paper published in the journal Nature Geoscience, T. Navarro, G. Schubert and S. Lebonnois describe a theory they have developed based on observational data.

There are always a bunch of ways to see things, this is the complete opposite from the previous shot from here which was a vertical pano - a bit like life really, depending on which way you looking at things will depend on what you see...

The cost of holding migrant children who have been separated from their parents in newly created "tent cities" is $775 per person per night, according to an official at the Department of Health and Human Services — far higher than the cost of keeping children with their parents in detention centers or holding them in more permanent buildings.

"Astronomers now have the 1st direct image of a black hole ripping apart a star. The star-stuff goes into a disk surrounding the hole, and it’s also ejected back to space in powerful jets."

Could aliens harness stars to keep ahead of expanding universe? - Dan Hooper, a senior scientist with Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory has written a paper outlining a way future aliens could keep their civilizations alive in spite of the isolation due to an expanding universe. In his paper uploaded to the arXiv preprint server, he suggests they might consider collecting and storing stars.
