Texto - Meu Brasil brasileiro
Esta noite sobrevoando Nova Iorque, quase ia acordando desfazendo meu sonho...
Mas no assento do lado o vizinho ressonava. Voltei ao meu sonho de paz e serenidade. Havia nuvens escondidas no céu e meu pensamento deslizava puro, sem intromissões mesmo de lights que iam desaparecendo...
Nem via aquela lua tão linda iluminando os rostos de pessoas alheias ao voo ...
Confesso que voar de noite sem ruidos parasitas, alheio a tudo que interfira com sonhos, é um previlégio, uma felicidade!
Do fundo das estrelas do Paraíso, que as primeiras luzes da Manhã iriam apagar, já nascia o sol; a vida, apagava o sonho. Os motores da nave iriam confundir-se, dentro de instantes, com os rumores sobrevoados…
Difícil deixar um sonho; mas, maravilha! Agora "O Corcovado", Guanabara, o Pão de… Acucar! Que doçura deliciosa… Estava chegando ao Brasil. Terra amada; tal Pedro Alvares Cabral senti um perfume de paraíso que jamais esquecerei. Meu Rio, meu Janeiro, meu Brasil brasileiro. "Minha saudade"!

Explanation: What if you climbed up on a rock and discovered the Universe? You can. Although others have noted much of it before, you can locate for yourself stars, planets, and even the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy. All you need is a dark clear sky -- the rock is optional. If you have a camera, you can further image faint nebulas, galaxies, and long filaments of interstellar dust. If you can process digital images, you can bring out faint features, highlight specific colors, and merge foreground and background images. In fact, an industrious astrophotographer has done all of these to create the presented picture. All of the component images were taken early last month on the same night within a few meters of each other. The picturesque setting was Sand Beach in Stonington, Maine, USA with the camera pointed south over Penobscot Bay.

Astronomy picture of the day - 2016 August 2 - A Rocket Booster Falls Back to Earth
Video Credit & Copyright: Matthew Holt
Explanation: What's that crossing the sky? Although it looked a bit like a large meteor, it was actually the booster of a Chinese rocket returning to Earth after its launch two days earlier. On the night of July 27, the rocket component heated up and broke up into glowing pieces as it re-entered Earth's atmosphere. The path of the falling booster took it over several US states, moving west to east, from California to Utah. Space debris can usually be distinguished from meteors by its slow speed and expansive break up. The featured video was taken in front of the Provo City Library in Utah, which was coincidently occupied by over 100 people -- many with smartphones already out of their pockets playing Pokémon GO.

Explanation: What's behind Saturn? The first answer is the camera itself, perched on the Cassini spacecraft currently orbiting behind the planet with the most grand ring system in our Solar System. The unusual perspective places Cassini on the far side of Saturn from the Sun so that more than half of Saturn appears dark -- a perspective that no Earth-based observer could achieve. Behind Saturn, in the context of the featured infrared image, is Saturn's moon Tethys, visible as the small speck above the unusual hexagonal cloud pattern that encompasses Saturn's North Pole. Tethys actually orbits Saturn right in the ring plane, which places the 1000-km moon much farther from Cassini than the planet itself. Cassini has been studying Saturn and its moons for 12 years, but, unfortunately, its amazing mission will soon come to an end. In order to protect life that may exist on or inside Saturn's moons, the robotic spacecraft will be directed to crash into Saturn's thick atmosphere next September.

Luke Aikins, o primeiro a saltar a mais de 7 km de altitude sem paraquedas (Video)
O norte-americano Luke Aikins tornou-se a primeira pessoa do mundo a saltar 25 mil pés (7620 metros) sem paraquedas, depois de se lançar de um helicóptero.
Segundo a imprensa, citada pela agência EFE, o homem de 42 anos alcançou uma velocidade de 193 quilómetros por hora no salto de durou dois minutos e caiu numa enorme rede de segurança instalada por vários metros no solo em Simi Valley, onde o esperava a sua família.
No local da "aterragem" tinham sido realizados testes com manequins de 90 quilos, que decorreram com normalidade, embora um deles não tivesse acertado no alvo. Esperava-se que tal não acontecesse ao paraquedista, mas para prevenir qualquer incidente a Fox emitiu o salto com um ligeiro atraso, de forma a poder parar a emissão em caso de tragédia.
