Re: What is it? Space mystery object #39.
I deleted my post because I realized that its content was copyrighted and, as bystander said, the image must be from APOD.
May bad.

Re: What is it? Space mystery object #39.
Its definetley an APOD, i never clicked through, its in the full list of original APODs so no cheating on my part. Your right though, the image does contain a belt of venus, but it also contains a sunset and sunrise. SOMEONE must get it now!

It sure looks like the Belt of Venus. Could it be a sunset on Mars (though they tend to be bluish)?

i would say it was a sunset near a pole somewhere?
Re: What is it? Space mystery object #39.
Could it be a noctilucent cloud?
Re: What is it? Space mystery object #39.
Welcome to the game, let me explain the rules. The object is to guess which APOD the crop comes from. Whoever guesses right gets to post the next one.
Re: What is it? Space mystery object #39.
I vote for closing this one. Any volunteers to post the next one?

Re: What is it? Space mystery object #40.
Well, I see this primarily black and yellow picture is not obvious..that's good. I purposely picked a crop that would have buried information in it, but I feared it might be too much. That appears not to be the case. Unless any of you are foaming at the synapses for an immediate clue, I'll provide one in a few days.

I don't think I'm giving away the farm here, but here is a clue. Those yellow things? Our buddy harry would likely call them roos ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: What is it? Space mystery object #40.
Given you're stuck on what next to do,
Yes, it's time for another clue -
Let's not despair and this image abort,
Instead what's up with that yellow roo,
And just why does it appear to distort?
In this crop, an insidious click-thru

Thanks for the positive perspective, but no, I failed miserably...makc wrote:you failed (unless you wanned it to be just a little, tiny bit less frustrating).alter-ego wrote:I wanted something ... little less frustrating
There were one or two "easy" keywords that I thought would take you there, but they don't. I'm actually bummed that it was this hard (and likely frustrating).
I'll give another clue: The cropped graphic illustrates a process that might help find exoplanets.

Re: What is it? Space mystery object #40.
does it have some reference to the transit method?
