US Space Program - a thread

. .
@waz @LeGenD can we remove all the non-US Space Program nonsensical spam stuff mixed into @Galactic Penguin SST posts. He is ruining a very nice serious sticky thread created 6 years ago that we have put a lot of effort keeping nice. Apparently he is an angry Iranian who just has to be childish in posting crap outside the Iran threads.

What does Russian planes, Soldiers with guns, and Godzilla pictures have to do with the US Space Program???

BTW I thought the title was "NASA, a thread". Suddenly it was changed to "US Space Program, a thread" (probably requested by Galactic Penguin himself so he could post crazy military conspiracy stuff here)

Can we put the title back.

It might look like a postcard from Arizona, but this snapshot shows something much more exotic: the planet Mars, as seen by NASA's Curiosity rover.

The image is a combination of 21 individual photographs the rover took recently to study a strange type of wispy cloud over its Gale Crater home. Scientists realized two Earth years ago that the cloud type was forming earlier in the Martian year than they expected. So this Martian year, Curiosity was watching for the early clouds, and it was not disappointed. The clouds did indeed show up beginning in late January, when the robotic skywatcher began documenting the wispy, ice-rich clouds scattering sunlight in sometimes-colorful displays.

"I always marvel at the colors that show up: reds and greens and blues and purples," Mark Lemmon, an atmospheric scientist with the Space Science Institute in Colorado, said in a NASA statement. "It's really cool to see something shining with lots of color on Mars."
