I am not a huge space enthusiast, but I have often wondered what would the night sky look like if the moon was replaced by one of our solar system’s planets? Well Ron Miller answers this question with his collection of manipulated images station planets, from the relatively minute Mercury to the enormous Jupiter, in

Mickey Mouse Spotted on Mercury
The resemblance is uncanny…Could be after all these years we find out Mickey Mouse is an alien? This image was just captured by NASA’s Messenger spacecraft, now orbiting Mercury. This scene is to the northwest of the recently named crater Magritte, in Mercury’s south. The image is not map projected; the larger crater actually sits
