Mission New Worlds: The New Worlds mission is a space mission proposal being studied by NASA. Its concept is based on the association of a space telescope with a large occulter (starshade) which places in space a long distance from it (several tens of thousands of kilometres) and designed to block the light of the central star in order to observe its exoplanets. Observations could be made with an existing space telescope, such as the James-Webb Space Telescope (JWST) once launched. A space telescope observes planets orbiting a distant star whose glare has been blocked by a flower-shaped screen the size of a football field. In reality, the starshade would be almost as far from the telescope as the moon is from earth.

Its concept is based on the association of a space telescope with a large occulter (starshade) which places in space a long distance from it (several tens of thousands of kilometres) and designed to block the light of the central star in order to observe its exoplanets. Observations could be made with an existing space telescope, such as the James-Webb Space Telescope (JWST) once launched. A space telescope observes planets orbiting a distant star whose glare has been blocked by a flower-shaped screen the size of a football field. In reality, the starshade would be almost as far from the telescope as the moon is from earth.

Planetary system around Trappist-1 - Artist's impressions of the TRAPPIST-1 planetary system: Artist's view of extrasolar planets around the red dwarf star TRAPPIST-1. At least seven exoplanets the size of the Earth are orbiting this star 40 light years ago in the constellation Aquarius. All could contain water. This artist's impression shows several of the planets orbiting the ultra-cool red dwarf star TRAPPIST-1. New observations, when combined with very sophisticated analysis, have now yielded good estimates of the densities of all seven of the Earth-sized planets and suggest that they are rich in volatile materials, probably water

Artist's view of the asteroid 2060 Chiron: (2060) Chiron, also designed as 95P/Chiron, is a centaur type cometary asteroid, an ice body of 166 kilometres of diameter orbiting around the Sun between Saturn and Uranus. 2060 Chiron, also known as 95P/Chiron, is a minor planet in the outer Solar System, orbiting the Sun between Saturn and Uranus. Discovered in 1977 it was the first-identified member of a new class of objects now known as centaurs - bodies orbiting between the asteroid belt and the Kuiper belt. Besides the four giant planets, Chiron and 10199 Chariklo, also a centaur, are the only other bodies in the Solar System known to have rings. Although it was initially called an asteroid and classified only as a minor planet with the designation “” 2060 Chiron””, it was later found to exhibit behavior typical of a comet. Today it is classified as both a minor planet and a comet, and is accordingly also known by the cometary designation “” 95P/Chiron””

HIRISE is a 50 cm telescope that observes visible and near infrared. Dunes within a crater on Mars are visible in this HiRise image. This crater is located in the southern hemisphere where it was winter at the time this image was taken on November 25, 2006. This observation documents new seasonal processes occurring on dunes at this latitude, as well as other interesting phenomena. The bright tones are interpreted as carbon dioxide or water frost. This is generally concentrated on the east - facing slopes of the dunes, which are in shadow and therefore cooler. Some dark spots on the dunes may be areas that have defrosted more than surrounding terrain. Landslides and dark - toned streaks are seen on many of the west -

While the surface of Enceladus is as reflective as new fallen snow, it would probably appear leaden about an hour before sunrise with a crescent Saturn as the only source of illumination. Like all of Saturn's major satellites, Enceladus always keeps the same side facing its host planet. From the perspective of a stationary observer on Enceladus, Saturn would always appear in the same position in the sky, cycling through its phases in about one - and - half Earth days.

The coldest place on Mars - Coolest place on Mars: Detail of the ice cap of the southern pole of Mars, composed mainly of carbon dioxide. This dry ice accumulates on the surface mainly in winter, the temperature of this area can sometimes drop to 130 degrees Celsius below zero. Image obtained on August 29, 2016 by the HIRISE camera on board the Mars Reconnaissance orbiter probe. HIRISE is a 50 cm telescope that observes visible and near infrared. The polar cap is made from carbon dioxide (dry ice), which does not occur naturally on the Earth. The circular pits are holes in this dry ice layer that expand by a few meters each Martian year. New dry ice is constantly being added to this landscape by freezing directly out of the carbon dioxide atmosphere or falling as snow. Freezing out the atmosphere like this limits how cold the surface can get to the frost point at -130 degrees Celsius (-200 F). Nowhere on Mars can ever get any colder this, making this coolest landscape on Earth and Mars

Comete Hale - Bopp - Comet Hale - Bopp C/1995 - Comete Hale - Bopp seen on April 2, 1997, one day after his passage to the perihelie. The Hyades cluster is visible at the top left, then to the right, the Pleiades, Persee, Andromede and Cassiopee. Mercury lies on the mountains at the bottom left of the picture. Comet Hale - Bopp is seen here on April 2, 1997, one day after Perihelion. This is a wide angle shot with the Hyades on the far upper left, then the Pleaides, Perseus, Andromeda and Cassiopeia. Mercury is setting just over the mountains at lower left. Cassel Observatory, New Buffalo, PA, US

Neptune - Voyager 2 - Image of Neptune obtained by the Voyager 2 probe on August 14, 1989 at 14.8 million km from the planet. Neptune has an equatorial diameter of about 49,000 kilometres. Its blue color is due to the abundance of methane in its atmosphere. On this photo, on the right, the Great Dark Spot, which is the size of the Earth where winds are blowing at 300 m/s. This spot has now disappeared but other dark spots have been detected since then. This contrast enhanced color photograph of Neptune was produced from images taken through the orange, green, and violet filters of the narrow angle camera. As Voyager 2 approaches Neptune, rapidly increasing image resolution is revealing striking new details in the planet's atmosphere, and this picture shows features as small as a few hundred kilometers in extent. Bright, wispy “” cirrus - type”” clouds are seen overlying the Great Dark Spot (GDS) at its southern (lower) margin and over its northwest (upper left) boundary. This is the fi

Moon Formation: Another Hypotheses of Giant Impact - Moon Formation: Hit-and-run Giant Impact Scenario: The hypothesis of giant impact suggests that the Moon was created from material ejected by a collision between the young Earth and a body the size of Mars named Theia 4.5 billion years ago. This scenario is widely accepted, but analyses of lunar samples have shown a major problem with this theory: the Moon should be composed mainly of Theia materials. The elements of the Moon and the Earth show remarkable similarities. Researchers explored a new collision geometry, changing the impact configuration. Their simulation also integrates a more energetic impact (called “hit and run”) that could tear more matter from Earth and make the pre-lunar debris disc dominate by terrestrial matter - The giant-impact hypothesis, sometimes called the Big Splash, or the Theia Impact suggests that the Moon formed out of the debris left over from a collision between Earth and a body of the size of Mars, a
