R Aquarii is a pair of a white dwarf star that steadily burns at a relatively cool temperature and a highly variable red giant, according to NASA. The white dwarf pulls material from the red giant onto its surface as they orbit each other | Photo: NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory

Cassiopeia A is a supernova remnant. Chandra’s observations of the cosmic object have shown how individual elements from the exploded star are being cast off into space. In the picture, X-rays reveal silicon (red), sulfur (yellow), calcium (green), and iron (light purple). | Photo: NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory

PSR B2224+65 is a pulsar found near the structure nicknamed the “Guitar Nebula” due to its shape in optical light (blue), and astronomers see jets of X-rays coming from it. | Photo: NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory

The composite image of Abell 2597 includes X-rays from Chandra (blue), optical data from the Digitized Sky Survey (orange), and emission from hydrogen atoms in optical light from the Las Campanas Observatory in Chile (red). | Photo: NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory

Nasa’s old map of Jupiter, which reminds many of dosa, has gone viral once more

Certain images or videos frequently resurface on the Internet, leaving people speechless. When those clips or pictures are shared again on one social media platform or another, they create a buzz. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) created and posted this image of a map of Jupiter online a few years ago. After being shared on Twitter, the image drew a lot of attention this time. And, as usual, the image made people think of dosa, a popular South Indian dish.

The image was shared by the Twitter account Latest in Space. “From the very bottom of Jupiter, I’m looking up. While tweeting the image, they wrote, “Seen by NASA Cassini.” The images from the Cassini spacecraft’s narrow-angle camera were used to create this out-of-this-world image, which is part of a coloured map series produced by the space agency.

The article was published a few days ago. The tweet has received nearly 20,000 likes since it was shared, and the number is growing. The tweet has been retweeted more than 2,000 times. Take a look at some of the comments to see how the image of Jupiter looks like dosa.

A Twitter user commented, “Looks like a designer dosa.” “When I rush to pick up a call, this is what happens to my dosa on the dosa pan,” one joked. “This is how my mother makes Dosa,” a third said. “Jupiter in the making,” wrote a fourth, along with a photo of someone preparing – you guessed it – dosa.
