Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2004 May 26 At the Summit of Olympus Mons Credit: G. Neukum FU Berlin et al. DLR ... ESA Explanation: From martian orbit, the Mars Express cameras looked down on the largest volcano in the solar system. The result was this stunningly detailed overhead view of the caldera or summit crater region of Olympus Mons . Fittingly named for the lofty abode of the gods of Greek mythology, Olympus Mons rises 21 kilometers above the surrounding plain or to about 3 times the height of Mt. Everest . The area pictured is 102 kilometers across and the caldera pits are up to 3 kilometers deep. For comparison, hawaiian volcanic calderas range up to 18 kilometers in diameter. Outlined by steep cliffs , Olympus Mons itself is about 600 kilometers in diameter. Tomorrow's picture: 2 comets Archive Index Search Calendar ... USRA NASA Official: Jay Norris.

15. ASTRONOMY In DENDERA ZODIAC And In SENMUT TOMB The zodiac in Senmut's tomb implies the existence of an unknown planet. http://mujweb.cz/Veda/senmut/

ASTRONOMY IN DENDERA'S ZODIAC AND IN SENMUT'S TOMB (Slovenská verzia nasleduje za anglickou) author: RNDr. Pavel Smutný E-mail: p.smutny@stonline.sk Secret of Dendera's Zodiac Secret of this zodiac is in his astronomical meaning. It could be an important astronomical discovery. Original Dendera's Zodiac is placed in museum in Louvre, Paris. Copy of this zodiac is in Dendera. Persons, animals, signs which are inside of zodiac are celestial bodies as planets, Sun, tenth planet (X), constellations... They can also simply show directions and shapes of orbits of planet X, when these one is crossing or is to near to orbit of particular planet of our solar system. picture denderasouth On Dendera’s Zodiac are painted positions of planet X exactly, as were seen on sky. If X was seen (records were done probably during days (nights) of Spring and of Autumn equinoxes ) for example 25 degrees above constellation of Capricorn, so also record of this position was done in zodiac 25 degrees above sign of Capricorn in direction toward center of zodiac. First sign which is discovered from outer orbit is Lion. It is standing on sign of water, that would represent water of comets and asteroids from Kuiper cloud. This cloud is some milliards km behind the orbit of Pluto and was discovered only some tents years ago. Every person, sign, animal has got more significations. Important is who or what is it and also the direction of movement, which are showing hands, feet, face or other body parts. When we have paths of planets in our solar system during normal conditions, these paths have on sky and in zodiac shape of geometrical circular patterns, which can not go through central part of whole big Dendera's Zodiac. Here we have but paths of celestial bodies crossing central part of this big zodiac, where are circumpolar constellations.

It's still returning really cool pictures... like this one . At the bottom of the crater in that image is what looks like... A HUMAN BRAIN (cue creepy music). For those with slow links, I show the picture here, next to a real human brain (not actual size). I checked, and the "brain crater" is a quarter of the way around Mars from "The Face" , but I don't think that will stop some goofy people from claiming it's yet another sign of intelligence on Mars. But if there were signs of intelligence, a brain might be a good one. :-)
