APOD: Evidence of an Active Volcano on Venus (2020 Jan 14)

Evidence of an Active Volcano on Venus
Explanation: Are volcanoes still active on Venus? More
volcanoes are known on Venus than Earth, but when
Venusian volcanoes last erupted is not directly known.
Evidence bolstering very recent volcanism on Venus has recently been uncovered, though, right here on Earth.
Lab results showed that images of
surface lava would become dim in the infrared in only months in the dense Venusian atmosphere, a dimming not seen in ESA's
Venus Express images. Venus Express entered orbit around
Venus in 2006 and
remained in contact with Earth until 2014. Therefore, the
infrared glow (shown in false-color red) recorded by Venus Express for
Idunn Mons and featured here on a NASA
Magellan image indicates that this volcano erupted very recently -- and is still active today. Understanding the
volcanics of
Venus might lead to insight about the
volcanics on Earth, as well as
elsewhere in our Solar System.

We had a Mulberry Tree that was pretty tall! As kids we would climb it and eat a lot of berries! Sometimes we picked a bunch and Mom mixed them with cream; mmmm good!

Scrambled jam toast, possibly mulberry.
Art, that's totally whimsically funny, and I can see the letters forming the word "Venus" there, somewhat scrambled.
But what are the Ms, J and P doing there?

Thanks for the link. That's quite a work of art and so much that went into it. I would like to see a video on the making of the video.

It's an unforgettable mnemonic for astronomy students of my generation.

So, an unforgettable mnemonic for the current generation might be ...
Many Volcanic Eruptions Might Just Swallow Unwanted Neighbors
(and we can discern who the unwanted one was that got swallowed).

What is it that you were supposed to remember?
I mean, "Oh, Be A Fine Girl (Guy), Kiss Me" is a mnemonic whose purpose is to make you remember the stellar classifications from O to M and put them in the right order from hottest to coolest. (Yes, I know they have added a couple of brown dwarf classifications at the end, but I couldn't care less.)
What's the volcano jam sandwiches supposed to make you remember?

Now that we have found:
- 1) Ice cap/Mosture on Mercury and
2) Volcanoes on Venus
we need to continue our exploration/exploitation and bring back :
- 3) Mulberry trees from Mars and
4) Sandwiches from Saturn, etc.
Stratford-upon-Avon is rapidly running out of
mulberry wood
and Dagwood Bumstead is running out of
sandwiches ![Exclamation :!:](./images/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif)
