Neptune - Voyager 2 - Image of the Great Dark Spot on Neptune obtained by the Voyager 2 probe on August 23, 1989. The Great Dark Spot is the size of the Earth and winds are blowing at 300 m/s. This spot has now disappeared but other dark spots have been detected since then. Date: 08/23/89 Range: 2.8 million km. (1.7 million miles) Smallest Resolvable Feature: 50 km or 31 miles This Voyager 2 image shows the last face on view of the Great Dark Spot that Voyager 2 will take with the narrow angle camera. It was made 45 hours before the closest approach to Neptune. the image shows feathery white clouds that overlie the boundary of the dark and light blue regions. the pinwheel (spiral) structure of both the dark boundary and the white cirrus suggest a storm system rotating counterclockwise. Periodic, small - scale patterns in the white clouds, possibly waves, are short - lived and do not persist from one Neptunian rotation to the next. This color composite was made from the clear and green

Sarcosuchus & crocodiles compared - The Sarcosuchus or Sarcosuchus imperator was a reptile of the order of crocodilians that was between 11 and 14 metres long and weighed nearly 10 tonnes. He lived about 110 million years ago in the cretace. It was one of the biggest crocodiles that existed on Earth. It is here compared to a Crocodylus porosus, on the left, and a Gavialis gangeticus, on the right. An adult crocodyliform reptile of the genus Sarcosuchus from 110 million years ago is compared to a modern saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) on the left and a modern gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) on the right.

Elliptical galaxy NGC 4881 and distant galaxies - Elliptical galaxy NGC 4881 and distant galaxies - The elliptical galaxy NGC 4881 (upper left) is about 300 million years away - light from Earth. NGC 4881 is located in the Coma galaxy cluster that contains at least 1,000 galaxies and is five times farther from us than the Virgin's cluster. Almost all the objects visible in this photo are located far behind the Coma cluster, except for the spiral galaxy to the right of Ngc 4881. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1994.

Carboniferous flora and fauna - Carboniferous riverbank - Carboniferous landscape with its ferns, giant lycopods, sigillaria (sigillaria), calamites. Among the fauna are an amphibian, a scorpion and insects that dominated the landscape, such as the Meganeura, giant dragonfly with a wingspan of more than 80 cm, or the 2-metre-long arthropleura climbing here in a tree. Ferns, seed ferns, and giant lycopods (primitive moss - like plants with long slender leaves) flourished during the Carboniferous period, from about 360 to 300 million years ago. Some lycopods, such as the arboreal Sigillaria illustrated here, grew as high as 130 feet. (100 feet is considered tall for a modern Maple tree). Other tree - like plants included many varieties of the Calamites, extinct ancestors of modern horsetails. While the first dinosaurs were not to appear for another 130 million years, the Carboniferous forests were home to a plethora of terrestrial animals, including many species of invertebrates and some

Constellation of Lyra - Constellation of Lyra - Constellation of Lyra with bright star Vega. Lyra, The Lyre is one of the 48 constellations listed by Ptolemy, and represents a stringed musical instrument widely used in Greek classical times. Apparently, the young god Hermes (Mercury) created the lyre from the body of a large tortoise shell covered with animal hide sporting antelope horns. The instrument is associated with the virtues of moderation and equilibrium, and was given by Hermes to his half - brother Apollo, who in turn gave it to his son Orpheus. Lyra is a small constellation, but rather obvious to the eye. Its principal star, Vega, is the second brightest star in the northern hemisphere and is also interesting because it is seen almost pole - on and is one of the most rapidly rotating stars known, so it could see it from a different direction it would appear distinctly flattened. Because of precession, Vega is destined to be the Pole Star in about 12,000 years. Entirely unco

Eogyrinus - Eogyrinus was one of the largest tetrapods of Carbonifere. It could reach 4.6m in length. His fossils were found in England. He was part of the Anthracosaur amphibian group that survived as far as Permian. It is believed that these amphibians were the ancestors of the group from which the reptiles were derived. In the background, a Meganeura, a giant dragonfly whose wingspan could exceed 80 cm. A 15 foot long, 200 pound prehistoric amphibian from the genus Eogyrinus swims down a Carboniferous tributary 300 million years ago in what is today western Europe. Further up the tributary another Eogyrinus prepares to enter the water. Eogyrinus was one of the largest predators of its time, and perhaps the largest of the family Eogyrinidae. It probably spent most of its time in the water, and like modern crocodiles probably fed on fish and other swimming vertebrates. Also in this image, on the upper left on the trunk of a Sigillaria scutellata is a giant millipede and cockroach. Fly

The European launch vehicle Vega - Illustration - European Vega Launcher - Illustration - Vega is a European Space Agency (ESA) launcher capable of placing a payload of up to 2 tonnes in low orbit. It is expected that it will join from 2010 the range of launchers of the space agency, which includes launchers Soyuz and Ariane. Under development since 1998, the Vega launcher is an all - solid three - stage vehicle with a liquid - fuelled injection module, based on proven technologies from Ariane 5 booster stages and Fiatavio's Zefiro solid rocket motor. Vega will be marketed and operated by Arianespace, in parallel to Ariane 5. Vega is designed to loft single or multiple payloads to orbits up to 1,500 km in altitude. Its reference payload capability is about 1,500 kg to a circular 500 - km - high Sun - synchronous orbit but it can also loft satellites from 300 kg to more than 2 metric tons, as well as piggyback microsatellites of less than 100 kg each.

Malaspina Glacier can be seen just left of the center of this northeast - looking, low - oblique photograph. Located in southern Alaska on the shore of the Gulf of Alaska, Malaspina Glacier is a classic example of a piedmont glacier lying at the foot of a mountain range - - in this case, the Saint Elias Mountains (just north of the glacier). The glacier covers an area of 1500 square miles (3900 square kilometers) on the coastal plain, is almost 60 miles (97 kilometers) long, and is more than 1000 feet (300 meters) thick. The Seward Ice Field is the main source of ice for the glacier. The glacier moves in surges that push earlier - formed moraines outward into expanding concentric patterns, which you can see along the flanks of the ice mass. To the northwest of Malaspina Glacier is the curved and pointed Agassiz Glacier, which is also fed

At the top of the picture, the foggy plains of northern India, at the bottom the Tibetan plateau. The Himalaya Mountains provide a formidable physical barrier between the hazy environmental conditions of north central India (top) and Nepal (middle), and the clear atmosphere of the Tibetan Plateau (lower third of image). Elevation disparities in this region of the world are tremendous. For example the elevations on the Gangetic Plain in India averages about 300 feet (92 meters) above sea level, the foothills (dark - looking features that run laterally across the image) in Nepal average about 2500 feet (762 meters), and finally the snow capped Himalayas average around 24000 feet (7315 meters).

Clusters of distant galaxies RDCS1252.9 - 2927 - Distant galaxy cluster RDCS1252.9 - 2927 - This cluster of galaxies is 9 billion years old - light in the constellation Hydra, and is the most massive known to date. It probably contains several thousand galaxies. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope and the VLT. The image shows the entire galaxy cluster (1/15 of a degree, corresponding to about 7 million light - years, across). The cluster probably contains many thousands of galaxies. Most of the other galaxies in the image, including most of the blue galaxies, are foreground or background galaxies. The image, which is made with an additional infrared exposure taken with the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, shows mature galaxies in a massive cluster that existed when the cosmos was 5000 million years old. The cluster, called RDCS1252.9 - 2927, is as massive as '300 trillion' suns and is the most massive known cluster for its epoch. Dominating the core are a

Center of the particular galaxy Arp 220 in the Serpent - Heart of the galaxy Arp 220 - The galaxy Arp 220 (IC 4553) is about 250 million years away - light from Earth. Designee in the 1960s as a particular galaxy, today it is defined as an ultra-aluminous infrared galaxy. The Hubble space telescope photographed its heart in April 1997 in infrared light and discovered that its nucleus had two spiral galaxies colliding. The two nuclei (the two light points in the center) are 1200 light years apart and orbit around each other. This collision caused a tremendous flare of new stars. The Hubble Space Telescope's Near Infrared Camera and Multi - Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) has uncovered a collision between two spiral galaxies in the heart of the peculiar galaxy called Arp 220. The collision has provided the spark for a burst of star formation. The bright, crescent moon - shaped object is a remnant core of one of the colliding galaxies. The core is a cluster of 1 billion stars. The core's hal

Dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX in the Great Bear - Dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX in Ursa Major - The dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX is located 12 million years - light from Earth in the constellation of the Great Bear, just above the spiral galaxy M81. Of the 20,000 stars visible on this image obtained by the Hubble space telescope, more than 90% are young stars aged between 10 and 200 million years. The proximity of other galaxies, including M81, is believed to be at the origin of this recent star formation. This loose collection of stars is actually a dwarf irregular galaxy, called Holmberg IX. It resides just off the outer edge of M81, a large spiral galaxy in Ursa Major. This image was taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys in early 2006.
