Prometheus Prominence

CamillaSDO, noticed this prominence had an uncanny resemblance to that critter in the movies. She posted this on FB and I thought I'd share it here as well
She has the best job in the world.

You mean, she gets to sit at a computer all day and find shapes in cosmic entities?

How do I become a pareidoliagist?!?!

She also gets to ride in ballons to the edge of space and back.
She's ridden in the Vomit Comet.
She been to Switzerland and the UK with her work.
She's has her own custom made Pressure Suit.
She's personal friends with over a dozen astronauts.
And yes, she gets to sit in front of a computer and look for humorous anomalies.
Best job in the world.
