This portion of a Magellan radar image strip shows a small region on Venus 20 km (12.4 mi.) wide and 75 km (50 mi.) long on the east flank of a major volcanic upland called Beta Regio. The image is centerd at 23 degrees north latitude and 286.7 degrees east longitude. The ridge and valley networkin the middle part of the image is formed by intersection faults which have broken the Venusian crust into a clomplex, deformed type of surface called tessera, the Latin word for tile. The parallel mountains and valleys resemble the Basin and Range Province in the western United States. The irregular dark patch near the top of the image is a smooth surface, probably formed by lava flows in a region about 10 km (6 mi.) across. Similar dark surfaces within the valleys indicate lava flows that are younger than the tessera giving an indication of the geologic time relationships of the events that formed the present surface. The image has a resolution of 120 meters (400 feet).

Flora, fossilis, formationis, oolithicae, Padova, Tip. del Seminario, 1856/1868-1873/1885, Jurassic, paleobotany, The illustration showcases a collection of fossilized fern prints along with a few stylized representations of their features. Positioned in a grid layout, the upper two sections highlight detailed impressions of fern fronds etched into rock surfaces. The first features elongated, pointed leaves arranged in a symmetrical pattern, while the second showcases a more robust, broader-leaved fern, both indicating the rich diversity of prehistoric vegetation. Below, the two smaller depictions offer simplified outlines of the ferns, enhancing the understanding of their shapes and structures. This representation combines scientific documentation with artistic interpretation, emphasizing the significance of these ancient plants in Earth's geological history.

STS077-705-012 (20 May 1996) --- Following its deployment from the Space Shuttle Endeavour, the Inflatable Antenna Experiment (IAE) portion of the Spartan 207 payload is backdropped over Earth as it continues its inflation process. The view was photographed with a handheld 70mm camera during the first full day of orbital operations by the six-member crew. Managed by Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), Spartan is designed to provide short-duration, free-flight opportunities for a variety of scientific studies. The Spartan configuration on this flight is unique in that the IAE is part of an additional separate unit which is ejected once the experiment is completed. The IAE experiment will lay the groundwork for future technology development in inflatable space structures, which will be launched and then inflated like a balloon on-orbit.
