• The German city of Frankfurt was decorated with lights on March 10 to celebrate the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, in what local media said was a nationwide first.

    A large sign reading "Happy Ramadan" and a display of lights in the shape of stars, lanterns and crescent moons were formally unveiled in an evening ceremony, illuminating a pedestrianised street in the city centre lined with restaurants and cafes.

    According to local officials and German media, it was the first time a German city had put up street illuminations for Ramadan.

    The western city of Frankfurt, Germany's financial hub with a population of more than 750,000 people, is home to around 100,000 Muslims.

  • Did you know that Saturn has 146 moons, ranging from larger than Mercury to as small as a sports arena? ⁠

    Some of Saturn's moons are so bright that they can be seen from Earth through a telescope! Imagine looking up at the night sky and being able to spot Titan, Rhea, Tethys, Dione, Enceladus, Iapetus, or Mimas. It's truly a remarkable sight to behold! ⁠

    Saturn is in constant competition with Jupiter for having the most moons. As of early 2024, Saturn has the most moons of any planet in the Solar System.⁠

    In this picture, you can see some of Saturn’s moons. To explore all of them, use the stargazing app Sky Tonight: https://vitotechnology.com/apps/sky-tonight⁠

  • Uranus has never looked better. NASA recently released the most detailed image of Uranus with bright atmospheric features and dramatic rings. The James Webb Space Telescope captured 11 of the ice giant’s 13 known rings and 27 known moons.

    Uranus is characterized as an ice giant because its core is surrounded by “icy” materials of water, methane, and ammonia. Photos of Uranus’ rings had only previously been captured by the Voyager 2 spacecraft as it flew past the planet in 1986.
