Now this was a view with a thrill. From Mount Tschirgant in the Alps, you can see not only nearby towns and distant Tyrolean peaks, but also, weather permitting, stars, nebulas, and the band of the Milky Way Galaxy. What made the arduous climb worthwhile this night, though, was another peak — the peak of the 2018 Perseids Meteor Shower. As hoped, dispersing clouds allowed a picturesque sky-gazing session that included many faint meteors, all while a carefully positioned camera took a series of exposures. Suddenly, a thrilling meteor — bright and colorful — slashed down right next to the nearly vertical band of the Milky Way. As luck would have it, the camera caught it too. Therefore, a new image in the series was quickly taken with one of the sky-gazers posing on the nearby peak. Later, all of the images were digitally combined. via NASA https://ift.tt/J81kYf7

Sky’s defence and security analyst Professor Michael Clarke says Russian president Vladimir Putin’s credibility is “draining away” following reports he met with Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin five days after he led an abortive revolt against Russia’s military hierarchy.

FRANCE 24’s Douglas Herbert unpacks the growing paranoia among Russia’s ruling class as Putin weeds out those he deems potentially disloyal following the Wagner Group’s abortive mutiny.
This stunning infrared image was released one year ago as the James Webb Space Telescope began its exploration of the cosmos. The view of the early Universe toward the southern constellation Volans was achieved in 12.5 hours of exposure with Webb’s NIRCam instrument. Of course the stars with six spikes are well within our own Milky Way. Their diffraction pattern is characteristic of Webb’s 18 hexagonal mirror segments operating together as a single 6.5 meter diameter primary mirror. The thousands of galaxies flooding the field of view are members of the distant galaxy cluster SMACS0723-73, some 4.6 billion light-years away. Luminous arcs that seem to infest the deep field are even more distant galaxies though. Their images are distorted and magnified by the dark matter dominated mass of the galaxy cluster, an effect known as gravitational lensing. Analyzing light from two separate arcs below the bright spiky star, Webb’s NIRISS instrument indicates the arcs are both images of the same background galaxy. And that galaxy’s light took about 9.5 billion years to reach the James Webb Space Telescope. via NASA https://ift.tt/bHGFUT9

Fears are growing that Russia won’t extend its grain deal with Ukraine after it expires later this Monday. The move would affect millions of people across the globe who are struggling with hunger and dependent on the grain and other foods that come out of Ukraine. Ukraine is a major supplier of crops such as maize, wheat and barley and also sunflower oil.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is threatening to walk away from the Black Sea grain deal unless some sanctions are lifted. The year-long deal has guaranteed safe shipping routes and enabled Ukraine to export grain to the world. With the deal set to expire on Monday, Putin is using the pressure to demand western countries end blockages on some Russian exports and payments.
And: The war in Ukraine has split many families, with women and children scattered across Europe and beyond, and most men in Ukraine. With the conflict well into its second year, the distance is taking its toll, experts say, on the very fabric of society.
For more on the grain deal and the situation for Ukrainian we speak to DW’s Special Correspondent Aya Ibrahim, who joins us from Kyiv.
