NASA Goddard – NASA | A View From The Other Side
A number of people who’ve seen NASA’s annual lunar phase and libration videos have asked what the other side of the Moon looks like, the side that can’t be seen from the Earth. This video answers that question. The imagery was created using Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter data.

See the Future of SpaceX – Super cool video animation of Falcon Heavy liftoff and flight!!
Falcon Heavy | Flight Animation
When Falcon Heavy lifts off later this year, it will be the most powerful operational rocket in the world by a factor of two. Thrust at liftoff is equal to approximately eighteen 747 aircraft operating simultaneously.

A climate triptych: This is what the melting arctic ice cap looks like!! @wiredscience
Nick Stockton at Wired.com has put together a compilation of 3 different ways to visualize the melting arctic ice cap. Above is one example:
The gallery of strange figures you see above represents the outlines of Arctic sea ice extent month by month from 1979 to the present.
… generated from National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) north pole sea ice extent. The images are arranged in a grid with the years across the top from 1979 to 2014 and the months running down the image from January to December. Click image for full resolution.

Ever wonder what the sun looks like during a coronal mass ejection? #GIF #science
ENLIL Model of March 5, 2013 CME – Space weather models combined with real time observations help scientists track CMEs. These images were produced from a model known as ENLIL named after the Sumerian storm god. It shows the journey of a CME on March 5, 2013, as it moved toward Mars.

A March 5, 2013, CME as seen by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory. Combining the information gleaned from such imagery with state-of-the-art models helps scientists better understand how CMEs move toward, and affect, Earth.
