Kelly Warm Springs
Slightly Northeast of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, just past the town of Kelly, there is a small pond called Kelly Warm Springs. You’ll never see more than about seven people there at once since it is somewhat out of the way of the main roads. It’s not the biggest hot spring in the area with Yellowstone just about an hour North of it, and it’s also not the hottest one averaging only 81º Fahrenheit (27.2º Celsius) year round. The pool is perfect for summer swimming with a gorgeous backdrop of the Grand Tetons visible from the whole pool.

Comments of the Week #180: From the planets Kepler missed to the NASA photos that changed the world
“Everything is subject to revision. I have no doubt that if we continue to do science at the rate that we’ve done it over the past few hundred years, then by time the year 3,000 rolls around, we’ll look at much of our modern understanding of things the way we look at Copernicus’ or even Ptolemy’s “Universe” today: as quaint, as the beginnings of science, but full of bad ideas and assumptions that we didn’t even recognize. But we may look at it only as we look at Newton’s: as incredibly good, and fundamentally flawed and limited in a few ways, but super successful for its time and what it did nonetheless.
We are always learning and growing.”
There is so much that’s out there in the Universe that we have not seen; that we cannot be certain of with 100% evidence. But thanks to what we know, and the theories we can lay atop the evidence we have, we can make some incredibly powerful predictions, and that’s my favorite part of any scientific theory.
Also, my new book, Treknology, is out today! #Celebrate

Magnetosphere of Jupiter
The magnetosphere of Jupiter is the cavity created in the solar wind by the planet’s magnetic field. Extending up to seven million kilometers in the Sun’s direction and almost to the orbit of Saturn in the opposite direction, Jupiter’s magnetosphere is the largest and most powerful of any planetary magnetosphere in the Solar System, and by volume the largest known continuous structure in the Solar System after the heliosphere. Wider and flatter than the Earth’s magnetosphere, Jupiter’s is stronger by an order of magnitude, while its magnetic moment is roughly 18,000 times larger. The existence of Jupiter’s magnetic field was first inferred from observations of radio emissions at the end of the 1950s and was directly observed by the Pioneer 10 spacecraft in 1973.
