That image is giving me some serious pareidolia. I'm imagining the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man just as he's beginning to melt.
 
If you're reading this thread then you must like animals. If you want to participate in a Thunderdome featuring them then nominations are still open:

AestheticallyPleasingAnimalsDome nominations - beauty and beast, all in one

Animals. We share our world with them and in the process we find them pleasing to our senses. For this Dome nominate up to 4 animals that please your senses (but mostly just sight and/or sound because that's all that can really be conveyed over the Internet). Everyone's nominations will face off...

Southern_Celestial_Pole.jpg

From Astronomy Picture of the Day
Explanation: If you live in the northern hemisphere, you may have learned how to locate the North Star, Polaris, in the night sky. It can be used to find north, and it approximately marks the northern celestial pole. If you live in the southern hemisphere, there is no bright star marking the southern celestial pole, but the Southern Cross can be used to find south. The featured image was taken in Padre Bernardo (GO), Brazil.It shows the apparent motion of the stars around the apparently empty southern celestial pole over 2 hours, on August 20, 2018. Each star takes about 24 hours to make a complete turn around the pole in the sky. Padre Bernardo is located in the Cerrado region, a tropical savanna that occupies most of central Brazil and supports rich biodiversity. The barren branch that apparently supports this sky wheel of rotating stars is a common sight there in the dry season during the southern winter.
