This is a picture of a planet that is in a decaying orbit around its sun. In about a million years, the planet will plunge into the star. But until then, we have pictures like this to ponder thanks to NASA.

Wow! From the look of it, that planet might be a gas giant like Jupiter, though I’d think all the flammable gasses would have burned off already. What a picture.
Yes, that picture is pretty spectacular, Rick. You might be right about the planet being a gas giant. Can you image what it will be like when that planet actually hits that star?
A lot of military expenditures strike me as wrong. NASA seems like our last best hope.
I feel exactly the same, Patti. NASA gives me a “sense of wonder.”
