Mars surface seen by the rover Curiosity 04/2015 - Martian surface seen from the rover Curiosity 04/2015 - Panorama of the surface of Mars on Mount Sharp. Mosaic of images obtained by the rover Curiosity and his camera Mastcam on 10 and 11 April 2015. A southward - looking panorama combining images from both cameras of the Mast Camera (Mastcam) instrument on Nasa's Curiosity Mars Rover shows diverse geological textures on Mount Sharp. Three years after landing on Mars, the mission is investigating this layered mountain for evidence about changes in Martian environmental conditions, from an ancient time when conditions were favorable for microbial life to the much - drier present. Gravel and sand ripples fill the foreground, typical of terrains that Curiosity traversed to reach Mount Sharp from its landing site. Outcrops in the midfield are of two types: dust - covered, smooth bedrock that forms the base of the mountain, and sandstone ridges that shed boulders as they erode. Rounded but

Galaxy UGC 10214 in the Dragon - Galaxy UGC 10214 in Draco - The galaxy UGC 10214 is about 420 million years away - light from Earth. The shape of this galaxy is due to a collision with another galaxy, the small galaxy, blue, visible in the upper left corner of the image. Powerful gravitational forces are responsible for the formation of the tail, consisting of stars of dust and gas, which stretches over nearly 28,000 light years and is composed of recently formed and extremely bright blue stars. In the background, more than 6000 galaxies are visible, some more than 12 billion years apart - light. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in April 2002. This picture of the galaxy UGC 10214 was taken by the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), which was installed aboard Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope in March during Servicing Mission 3B. Its distorted shape was caused by a small interloper, a very blue, compact galaxy visible in the upper left corner of the more massive Tadpole. The Tad

Centaur Omega globular cluster - NGC 5139 Omega Centauri globular cluster - Visible to the naked eye in the southern hemisphere, Centaurus Omega is the most massive globular cluster in the galaxy. About 17,000 light years ago, millions of stars nearly 12 billion years old are concentrated here. This image obtained by the Spitzer space telescope reveals in yellow and red the big red stars, whose dust radiates infrared, and in blue the smaller and less evoluted stars. Omega Centauri is the biggest and brightest of the more than 150 similar objects, called globular clusters, that orbit around the outside of our Milky Way galaxy. Stargazers at southern latitudes can spot the stellar gem with the naked eye in the constellation Centaurus. While the visible - light observations highlight the cluster's millions of jam - packed stars, Spitzer's infrared eyes reveal the dustier, more evolved stars tossed throughout the region. Globular clusters are some of the oldest objects in our universe. The

Centaurus A Elliptical Galaxy (NGC 5128) in the Centaur - Galaxy Centaurus A - The NGC 5128 galaxy is about 11 million years away - light from Earth. This image from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) shows the star flames that occur in the dark band of the galaxy. This giant galaxy is a powerful radio source known as Centaurus A. It is an active galaxy whose energy comes from a supermassive black hole. Centaurus A, also known as NGC 5128, is well known for its dramatic dusty lanes of dark material. Hubble's observations, using its most advanced instrument, the Wide Field Camera 3, are the most detailed ever made of this galaxy. They have been combined here in a multi - wavelength image that reveals never - before - seen detail in the dusty portion of the galaxy. As well as features in the visible spectrum, this composite shows ultraviolet light from young stars, and near - infrared light, which lets us glimpse some of the detail otherwise obscured by the dust.

The Hubble Space Telescope's Near Infrared Camera and Multi - Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) has captured a glimpse of a brief stage in the burnout of NGC 7027, a medium - mass star like our sun. THE INFRARED VIEW - - The composite color image of NGC 7027 (on the left) is among the first data of a planetary nebula taken with NICMOS. This picture is actually composed of three separate images taken at different wavelengths. The red color represents cool molecular hydrogen gas, the most abundant gas in the universe. The image reveals the central star, which is difficult to see in images taken with visible light. Surrounding it is an elongated region of gas and dust cast off by the star. This gas (appearing as white) has a temperature of several tens of thousands of degrees Fahrenheit. The object has two “” cones”” of cool molecular hydrogen gas (the red material) glowing in the infrared. The gas has been energized by ultraviolet light from the star - a process known as fluorescence. Most of

Galaxy of the Wheel of the Charette in the Sculptor - The Cartwheel Galaxy - The ring galaxy of the Wheel of the Charette is about 500 million years away - light from the Earth. It is surrounded by a ring of 150,000 years - light of diameter composed of young and very bright stars. This particular form is the result of a collision, probably with one of the two galaxies on the right. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in October 1994. A rare and spectacular head - on collision between two galaxies appears in this NASA Hubble Space Telescope true - color image of the Cartwheel Galaxy, located 500 million light - years away in the constellation Sculptor. The details of star birth resolved by Hubble provide an opportunity to study how extremely massive stars are born in large fragmented gas clouds.

Crab Nebula seen in different wavelength - The Crab Nebula in multi wavelength: M1, the Crab Nebula, is the rest of a supernova that exploded on July 4, 1054. It is located about 6500 light years from Earth in the constellation Taurus. At the heart of this nebula is a pulsar. To obtain this photo, different observatories and telescopes combined their observations; the VLA provided the radio image (in red), the Spitzer telescope the infrared image (in yellow), the Hubble telescope for the visible part (here in green), XMM-Newton the ultraviolet image (in blue) and the Chandra telescope for X-ray data (purple). The pulsar is the bright spot in the center of the image. The unusual image was produced by combining data from telescopes spanning almost the entire electromagnetic spectrum, from radio waves to X-rays. The Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) provided information about the nebula gathered in the radio regime (colored in red). Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope took images in the in

Spiral Galaxy M66 in the Lion - Spiral galaxy M66 in Leo - M66 (NGC 3627) is a spiral galaxy located at a distance of about 35 million years - light. M66, with its neighbors M65 and NGC 3628, forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. The unusual spiral galaxy, Messier 66, is located at a distance of about 35 million light - years in the constellation of Leo. Together with Messier 65 and NGC 3628, Messier 66 is one third of the Leo Triplet, a trio of interacting spiral galaxies, part of the larger Messier 66 group. Messier 66 wins out in size over its fellow triplets - - it is about 100 000 light - years across. Messier 66 is the proud owner of exclusive asymmetric spiral arms which seem to climb above the galaxy's main disc and an apparently displaced nucleus. This asymmetry is unusual; most often, dense waves of gas, dust and newly born stars wind about the galaxy's centre in a symmetric way. Astrono

Elliptical galaxy NGC 1275 in Persee - Elliptical galaxy NGC 1275 in Perseus - This image obtained by the Hubble space telescope in 1995 shows a system of two colliding galaxies; in the foreground, a spiral galaxy seen almost from the edge, with many stars forming in the background, a giant, very bright elliptical galaxy, special because it has a spiral structure in its center. Its core probably houses a black hole. NGC 1275 is located about 230 million years ago - light; it belongs to the large cluster of galaxies of Persee. These images, taken with Hubble's Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2), show traces of spiral structure accompanied by dramatic dust lanes and bright blue regions that mark areas of active star formation. Detailed observations of NGC 1275 indicate that the dusty material belongs to a spiral system seen nearly edge - on in the foreground. The second galaxy, lying beyond the first, is actually a giant elliptical with peculiar faint spiral structure in its nucleus.

Star Formation in the DR21 Region - Star Formation in the DR21 Region - This star-forming region is about 6200 years old - light. Hidden in light visible by interstellar dust, this region rises in infrared light. Gas filaments appear in red; they emphasize the presence of aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons (PAH); they are organic molecules composed of carbon atoms and hydrogen that could be the germs on which the first bricks of life appeared. Image obtained by the Spitzer space telescope in 2003. Hidden behind a shroud of dust in the constellation Cygnus is a stellar nursery called DR21, which is giving birth to some of the most massive stars in our galaxy. Visible light images reveal no trace of this interstellar cauldron because of heavy dust obscuration. This image from Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope allow us to peek behind the cosmic veil and pinpoint one of the most massive natal stars yet seen in our Milky Way galaxy.

Planetary nebula CRL 2688 dans le Swan/HST - This image of the Egg Nebula, also known as CRL2688 and located roughly 3,000 light - years from us, was taken in red light with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) aboard Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope.The image shows a pair of mysterious “” searchlight” beams emerging from a hidden star, criss - Yeah. crossed by numerous bright arcs. This image sheds new light on the poorly understood ejection of stellar matter which accompanies the slow death of Sun - like stars. The image is shown in false color. The central star in CRL2688 was a red giant a few hundred years ago. The nebula is really a large cloud of dust and gas ejected by the star, expanding at a speed of 20 km/s (115,000 mph). A dense cocoon of dust (the dark band in the image center) enshrouds the star and hides it from our view. Starlight escapes more easily in directions where the cocoon is thinner, and is reflected towards us by dust particles in the cloud, giving it its

The Trifid Nebula is a giant star - forming cloud of gas and dust located 5,400 light - years away in the constellation Sagittarius. The false - color Spitzer images reveal a different side of the Trifid Nebula. Where dark lanes of dust are visible trisecting the nebula in the visible - light picture, bright regions of star - forming activity are seen in the Spitzer pictures. All together, Spitzer uncovered 30 massive embryonic stars and 120 smaller newborn stars throughout the Trifid Nebula, in both its dark lanes and luminous clouds. These stars are visible in all the Spitzer images, mainly as yellow or red spots. Embryonic stars are developing stars about to burst into existence. Ten of the 30 massive embryos discovered by Sp

Detail of the nebula NGC 3324 in the Carene - Detail of nebula NGC 3324 in Carina - Detail of the nebula NGC 3324 obtained by the Hubble space telescope. This nebula is located in the southern hemisphere, close to the great Carene nebula about 7200 light years from Earth. The image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope shows a gas wall at the edge of a cavite created by the radiation and stellar winds blown by young warm stars. Hubble space telescope image shows the edge of a giant gaseous cavity within the star - forming region called NGC 3324. The glowing nebula has been carved out by intense ultraviolet radiation and stellar winds from several hot, young stars. A cluster of extremely massive stars, located well outside this image in the center of the nebula, is responsible for the ionization of the nebula and excavation of the cavity. The image also reveals dramatic dark towers of cool gas and dust that rise above the glowing wall of gas. The dense gas at the top resists the bliste
