Pluto - Pluto - The dwarf planet Pluto seen by the Hubble space telescope. These images, recomposed by computer from cliches obtained in 2002 and 2003, are not sufficiently precise to show Pluto's surface in detail but reveal color differences. This is the most detailed view to date of the entire surface of the dwarf planet Pluto, as constructed from multiple NASA Hubble Space Telescope photographs taken from 2002 to 2003. Hubble's view isn't sharp enough to see craters or mountains, if they exist on the surface, but Hubble reveals a complex - looking and variegated world with white, dark - orange, and charcoal - black terrain. The overall color is believed to be a result of ultraviolet radiation from the distant Sun breaking up methane that is present on Pluto's surface, leaving behind a dark, molasse - colored, carbon - rich residue. The center disk (180 degrees) has a mysterious bright spot that is unusually rich in carbon monoxide frost. This region will be photographed in the high

It shows that the disk is warped, which is often the result of a gravitational encounter with another galaxy; clumpy areas spotted in the far edges of the ring indicate young star - forming regions. Spitzer detected infrared emission not only from the ring, but from the center of the galaxy too, where there is a huge black hole, belie

Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope has captured stunning infrared views of the famous Andromeda galaxy to reveal insights that were only hinted at in visible light. Spitzer's 24 - micron mosaic is the sharpest image ever taken of the dust in another spiral galaxy. This is possible because Andromeda is a close neighbor to the Milky Way at a mere 2.5 million light - years away.

Globular cluster G1 (Mayall II) - Globular cluster G1 (Mayall II) - The G1 globular cluster is the brightest globular cluster in the group of about thirty galaxies known as the Local Group (including the Lactee Way). It is orbiting the Andromede galaxy and contains at least 300,000 stars. This image is a composite of visible and near infrared images obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in July 1994. Hubble Space Telescope has captured a view of a globular cluster called G1, a large, bright ball of light in the center of the photograph consisting of at least 300,000 old stars. G1, also known as Mayall II, orbits the Andromeda galaxy (M31), the nearest major spiral galaxy to our Milky Way. Located 130,000 light - years from Andromeda's nucleus, G1 is the brightest globular cluster in the Local Group of galaxies. The Local Group consists of about 20 nearby galaxies, including the Milky Way. A glimpse into the cluster's finer details allow astronomers to see its fainter helium - burning

Barree spiral galaxy NGC 1300 in Eridan - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 1300 in Eridanus - The galaxy NGC1300 is located about 60 million years ago - light and extends over about 85 000 years - light. This image was obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in September 2004. NGC 1300 is considered to be prototypical of barred spiral galaxies. Barred spirals differ from normal spiral galaxies in that the arms of the galaxy do not spiral all the way into the center, but are connected to the two ends of a straight bar of stars containing the nucleus at its center. At Hubble's resolution, a myriad of fine details, some of which have never before been seen, is seen throughout the galaxy's arms, disk, bulge, and nucleus. Blue and red supergiant stars, star clusters, and star - forming regions are well resolved across the spiral arms, and dust lanes trace out fine structures in the disk and bar. Numerous more distant galaxies are visible in the background, and are seen even through the densest regio

Group of Galaxies HCG 31 - Hickson Compact Group 31 - This group of interacting galaxies is located 166 million years of light from Earth in the constellation Eridan. Dwarf galaxies are merging causing intense star formation. This long fusion process will lead to the birth of a large elliptical galaxy. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on August 8, 2006. These four dwarf galaxies waited billions of years to come together, setting off a fireworks show as thousands of new star clusters come to life. The distorted galaxies are quickly producing massive, hot, young stars that are pumping out ultraviolet radiation, heating up surrounding gas clouds, and causing them to glow. Such encounters between dwarf galaxies are normally seen billions of light - years away and therefore occurred billions of years ago. But these galaxies, members of Hickson Compact Group 31, are relatively nearby, only 166 million light - years away. In this image, taken by Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope, the

Planetary nebula M57 (NGC 6720) in Lyra - The Ring nebula M57 in Lyra - The planetary nebula of Lyra (M57) is located about 2000 years - light from Earth. A planetary nebula is a gas shell from a small late-life star whose heart collapsed to become a white dwarf and expelled the outer layers of its matter. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. This close - up, visible - light view by Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope reveals new details of the Ring Nebula. The object is tilted towards Earth so that astronomers see the ring face - on. The Hubble observations reveal that the nebula's shape is more complicated than astronomers thought. The blue gas in the nebula's center is actually a football - shaped structure that pierces the red doughnut - shaped material. Hubble also uncovers the detailed structure of the dark, irregular knots of dense gas embedded along the inner rim of the ring. The knots look like spokes in a bicycle.

Spiral Galaxy NGC 3079 in the Great Bear - Spiral galaxy NGC 3079 - NGC 3079 is a spiral galaxy distant about 50 million years - light from Earth. His disc measures about 70,000 years - light. This false-colored image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1998 shows that a huge gas bubble escapes from the galaxy. This bubble rises more than 3500 years ago - light above the disk of the galaxy. It is a wind from hot stars and blends with very hot gas from supernovae explosions that would cause this bubble. The picture shows the bubble in the center of the NGC 3079 galaxy's disk. The structure is more than 3,000 light - years wide and rises 3,500 light - years above the galaxy's disk. Astronomers suspect that the bubble is being blown by “” winds”” (high - speed streams of particles) released during a burst of star formation. Eventually, this gas will rain down upon the galaxy's disk where it may collide with gas clouds, compress them, and form a new generation of stars. The two white
