Fresh from Mars! 🔴 Updated Mars MRO CTX HiPS with V01 data from @caltech.edu Murray Lab now available: 👉 alasky.cds.unistra.fr/CDS_P_Mars_M... If you want to explore the Red Planet in a fun way, try Mars Roulette, every reload creates new random: 🎲 aladin.cds.unistra.fr/AladinLite/s...

We just published at @cdsportal.bsky.social a color HiPS for Hubble Space Telescope images, combining 18 individual HiPS. This data product gives an accurate preview of the HST archive content, spatially and spectrally. Explore it interactively in Aladin Lite: alasky.cds.unistra.fr/HST-hips/col...

WIP: Plan oblique HiPS map of Alsace region. Elevation data from @ignfrance.bsky.social RGE ALTI - Water ways data from @openstreetmap.bsky.social High-resolution image of the map: filesender.renater.fr?s=download&t... Final goal is to deliver a similar interactive map for the whole France.

While at CDS, the Aladin project mainly deals with deep sky images, we also map planetary surfaces. We released the HiPS of China's Tianwen-1 MoRIC images, a true-color map of Mars at 76m resolution. Interact with this awesome dataset in Aladin Lite at alasky.cds.unistra.fr/Planets/CDS_...

A nice press release. Check the #AladinLite visualization in the web page, comparing the Einstein cross of the background galaxy as seen by ALMA with the HST near-infrared image of the foreground galaxies. astro.unistra.fr/en/2025/09/1...

I arrive here having finished a major, multi-month project: creating a posters in a hachure style reminiscent of centuries past. Have a look: terrainlines.etsy.com. There's a free ebook, too! somethingaboutmaps.wordpress.com/2024/10/31/a... If you could share them around, I would be grateful!

@vrubinobs.bsky.social First Look images are amazing. We created a page with image cutouts of all 80,000+ SIMBAD objects in the published fields: alasky.cds.unistra.fr/rubin-firstl... Click on an object thumbnail to explore further interactively in Aladin Lite. cc @lsst-france.bsky.social

Vous avez probablement vu les premières images spectaculaires du Vera C. Rubin telescope publiées cette semaine. Mais saviez-vous que leur visualiseur Skyviewer repose sur #AladinLite, développé par le @cdsportal.bsky.social ? Plongez-vous dans ces nouvelles données : cds.unistra.fr/fr/news/2025...

The HiPS for V. Rubin observatory @VRubinObs First Lookup images is available in the HiPS network. It encompasses the two fields "Cosmic Treasure Chest" and "The Trifid and Lagoon Nebulae". alasky.cds.unistra.fr/Rubin/CDS_P_... #IVOA #AladinLite

Very nice visualization of Rubin first images, powered by Aladin Lite

I strongly recommend playing with @vrubinobs.bsky.social's just released Skyviewer app, which has a tour and the Virgo data loaded. Go play here: skyviewer.app
