One hell of a photographer.
He's definitely got some nerves to be right in the middle of a battle taking a picture of Rudolph. Then again, he is Russian....
USS New Jersey (BB-62) firing all 16" guns simultaneously - 1986. I've been on this ship before and I wouldn't want to be anywhere near this thing when the guns go off. That thing is 🤬 massive. One of the world's biggest.

Sorry for the small size, but this is just awesome.
The angle of both rear wings reminds me of this... The lockheed XFV-1, a vertical takeoff aircraft from the early 1950s.

^Oh yeah, forgot about that thing for a second. Such a cool concept.
This is how much bigger bombers got over the course of about 7 years. They call the one on the right the "Peacemaker"

Hammond you idiot, you've put the engines on backwards! 
There is something very unusual in this picture of the Earth -- can you find it? A fleeting phenomenon once thought to be only a legend has been newly caught if you know just where to look. The above image was taken from the orbiting International Space Station (ISS) in late April and shows familiar ISS solar panels on the far left and part of a robotic arm to the far right. The rarely imaged phenomenon is known as a red sprite and it can be seen, albeit faintly, just over the bright area on the image right. This bright area and the red sprite are different types of lightning, with the white flash the more typical type. Although sprites have been reported anecdotally for as long as 300 years, they were first caught on film in 1989 -- by accident. Much remains unknown about sprites including how they occur, their effect on the atmospheric global electric circuit, and if they are somehow related to other upper atmospheric lightning phenomena such as blue jets or terrestrial gamma flashes.

The photo of Mars is also color-timed to look more like formations here. Apparently done for the geologists to get a better idea of the strata layers on the mountains.
At the end of the day, though, Mars is still a rocky planet just like Earth. Aside from life, the only thing it's really missing is water. So it's not surprising that they would look very similar if you could find a similar environment here on Earth (and there's no shortage of different environments here).
