Triton flyby... The just-released movie at right shows a robotic space explorer's flyby of Triton, Neptune's moon. If you follow these things, as I do, you might be startled to hear that, as there are currently no explorers anywhere near Neptune! The movie was made from a collection of still photos taken by Voyager 2, in 1989, as it zoomed past Neptune on its way to interstellar space. Via
APOD, of course...
