Trouble around Mars and Jupiter: this week in space

This spectacular panoramic view combines a new image of the field around the Wolf?Rayet star WR 22 in the Carina Nebula (right) with an earlier picture of the region around the unique star Eta Carinae in the heart of the nebula (left). The picture was created from images taken with the Wide Field Imager on the MPG/ESO 2.2-metre telescope at ESO?s La Silla Observatory in Chile. This image is available as a mounted image in the ESOshop. #L
Extraterrestrial exploration has 99 problems, and Schiaparelli and Juno are two. Thankfully there's a new deep zoom into Eta Carinae in which we can drown our collective sorrows.
