POPSMars canyon in HD Hebes Chasma is a very prominent Mars feature just north of the huge Valles Marineris system (a.k.a. the "Grand Canyon of Mars"). Hebes is described as an enclosed trough, with a high, flat-top mountain range right in the centre. The canyon is over 8 km deep in places, and the central mountain ascends to this height, at the same level as the surrounding plains

POPSWarm and Fuzzy Continued: (from the clip) PS. The response to this video has been nothing short of overwhelming and touching. Hugs to every single one of you who messaged. There has been thousands of emails from all over the world by people seeking to participate in the Free Hugs campaign and asking for permission. You do not need permission. This is the peoples movement, this is *your* movement. With nothing but your bare hands you can make THE difference.

POPSSaturn, Rings, and Moons More breathtaking images can be seen at the NASA Cassini-Huygens website. Cassini is 1.4 billion kilometers from earth. That makes these images all the more awe inspiring.

POPSAmazing Close Up Views Of Tornados This one is for my mom. She absolutely is terrified and fascinated by tornadoes she is absolutely going to love these photos. They are just fantastic. Mother Nature will never cease to be an amazing and awe inspiring joy to watch. While I will never feel anything but sympathy for the terror and destruction that these storms leave in their path from these photos I can see the reason why my mother is glued to the TV anytime live video of these monsters comes up. Enjoy, I know my mom will ;)

POPSSimply amazing - star leaving a "comet tail" This is a star, travelling at roughly 82 miles per second. The tail you see is caused by mass being ejected due to the conditions under which its fuel is burning (thin shell helium fusion), making the star almost pulse with energy, throwing off gas, which is glowing in the ultra-violet spectrum. The tail is 13 light-years long and represents 30 millennia of travel for the star in question, which has been named Mira (my-rah), translated as "wonderful". Truly awe-inspiring.
