Telescope E - ELT - Artist's view - European Extremely Large Telescope - Artwork - Artist's view of the E - ELT (European Extremely Large Telescope), a telescope project measuring 42 metres in diameter. The construction of this European project is expected to start at the end of 2010 and will be inaugurated around 2018. Its main mirror will consist of 906 hexagonal mirrors assembled together, and its total surface will be equal to that of a football field. With a 42 - m diameter primary mirror, the present baseline, its total rotating mass is 5500 tons. The two platforms on each side of the structure hold large instruments. The E - ELT features a novel, innovative design, based on 5 mirrors. The primary 42 - m mirror is composed of 906 segments, each 1.45 m wide, while the secondary mirror is as large as 6 m in diameter. A tertiary mirror, 4.2 m in diameter, relays the light to the adaptive optics system, composed of two mirrors: a 2.5 - m mirror supported by 5000 or more actuators so

Earth Formation - Artist View - Earth is born - Artist view - Earth was formed 4.6 billion years ago from a gigantic cloud of gas and dust. These dust accreted to form our planet, and it was subjected to a large bombardment of meteorites. 4.6 billion years ago the Sun and the planets coalesced from a vast nebular cloud of gas and dust. About a million years later the Sun began shining when it accrued enough mass to ignite its hydrogen fusion furnace. The ensuing solar wind purged the infant solar system of much of its nebular origins, while leaving dust and debris, including asteroids and planetoids, in the plane of the ecliptic to be swept up by the forming planets. This rendering suggests how the newly formed Earth and sun may have appeared shortly after the Sun's heat and solar wind cleared the inner solar system of cooler gases. The entire Earth is molten due to radioactive heating and frequent, heat - generating collisions with the remaining debris. Far above and below the Earth's

The Formation of the Earth - Artist's View - Meteorite strike on infant Earth - The Earth was formed 4.6 billion years ago from a gigantic cloud of gas and dust. These dust accreted to form our planet; it was subjected to a large bombardment of meteorites. A molten, infant Earth is impacted by an object about 10 miles in diameter, releasing 200 million times a much energy as the largest manmade explosion. While this collision appears negligible when compared to the scars of much larger encounters, a similar impact four billion years later may have resulted in the extinction of the dinosaurs. The Earth accrued the majority of its mass during the 100 million years following the formation of the Sun, a period referred to as the cosmic bombardment. During this era of frequent impacts and radioactive heating, the entire Earth remained molten long enough for the heavy metals iron and nickel to settle to the center of the Earth while lighter silicates floated to the surface. Today, over four

The Phoenix probe on its landing site - Phoenix landing site - Mosaic of images in vertical projection showing the Phoenix probe placed on Martian soil. The black circle corresponds to the position of the probe camera. The hundreds of clicks needed to make this image were taken between June 5 and July 12, 2008. Phoenix landed on a vast plain north of Mars, in the Vastitas Borealis region. This view is a vertical projection that combines hundreds exposures taken by the Surface Stereo Imager camera on Nasa's Mars Phoenix Lander and projects them as if looking down from above. The black circle on the spacecraft is where the camera itself is mounted on the lander, out of view in images taken by the camera. North is toward the top of the image. The height of the lander's meteorology mast, extending towards the southwest, appears exaggerated because that mast is taller than the camera mast. This view is in approximately true color. The landing site is at 68.22 degrees north latitude, 234.25

Telescope E - ELT - Artist's view - European Extremely Large Telescope - Artwork - Artist's view of the E - ELT (European Extremely Large Telescope), a telescope project measuring 42 metres in diameter. Construction of this European project could start in 2010, with a planned inauguration around 2017. Its main mirror will consist of 906 hexagonal mirrors assembled together, and its total surface will be equal to that of a football field. With a 42 - m diameter primary mirror, the present baseline, its total rotating mass is 5500 tons. The two platforms on each side of the structure hold large instruments. The telescope features a novel, innovative design, based on 5 mirrors. The primary 42 - m mirror is composed of 906 segments, each 1.45 m wide, while the secondary mirror is as large as 6 m in diameter. A tertiary mirror, 4.2 m in diameter, relays the light to the adaptive optics system, composed of two mirrors: a 2.5 - m mirror supported by 5000 or more actuators so as to be able to

This exoplanet has about 6 times the mass of Jupiter and its distance from its star 70 Virginis is almost the same as that of Mercury from the Sun. A ringed 70 Vir B presides over the hot and airless terrain of a hypothetical moon. While it is not known if 70 Vir B has rings, it is certainly possible. 70 Vir B's rings would have no ice in them due to is proximity to its sun. Such rings would likely be less than 100 million years old and could have been formed from the shattered remnants of an asteroid that wondered too close to this giant planet. 70 Vir B's eccentric orbit would increase the likelihood of its encountering other objects in orbit around 70 Virginis. About 78 light years from the Earth astronomers believe that there is a large planet orbiting 70 Virginis, a type G5V

Mercury seen by the Messenger probe - Mercury seen by Messenger spacecraft - Image of Mercury, obtained by the Messenger probe on October 6, 2008. The bright crater in the middle of the picture down is the Kuiper crater. The large striations north and east of the crater are observed for the first time by a space probe. Recolorised image. The spectacular image shows the departing planet taken about 90 minutes after the spacecraft's closest approach to Mercury on October 6, 2008. The bright crater just south of the center of the image is Kuiper, identified on images from the Mariner 10 mission in the 1970s. For most of the terrain east of Kuiper, toward the limb (edge) of the planet, the departing images are the first spacecraft views of that portion of Mercury's surface. A striking characteristic of this newly imaged area is the large pattern of rays that extend from the northern region of Mercury to regions south of Kuiper.

Here, the ship is approaching a satellite stationed at a point in Lagrange. Illustration. An Orion class Crew Exploration Vehicle (AKA Deep Space Vehicle) is paired with a Soyuz TMA-M manned spacecraft for a joint deep space rendezvous with a satellite parked in a gravitationally stable Lagrangian point about 1 million miles beyond the orbit of the Earth's Moon. At this position, in this case a Lagrangian point 2, or L2, the Earth is between the spacecraft and the Sun resulting in the Earth eclipsing much of the Sun's light, however at this distance the Earth does not subtend an angle large enough to cover the entire disk of the Sun.

Spiral galaxy NGC 7331 in Pegase - Spiral galaxy NGC 7331 in Pegasus: The galaxy NGC 7331 is located about 45 million light years away from Earth. Image obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope. NGC 7331 is located about 45 million light-years away in the constellation of Pegasus (The Winged Horse). Facing us partially edge-on, the galaxy showcases it's beautiful arms which swirl like a whirlpool around its bright central region. Astronomers took this image using Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3), as they were observing an extraordinary exploding star - a supernova - which can still be faintly seen as a tiny red dot near the galaxy's central yellow core. Named SN2014C, it rapidly evolved from a supernova containing very little Hydrogen to one that is Hydrogen-rich - in just one year. This rarely observed metamorphosis was luminous at high energies and provides unique insight into the poorly understood final phases of massive stars.

Permanent station project between Mars and the Earth - Artist view - Mars Cycler - Artist view - Artist view of the Mars Cycler project, a space station placed in cylindrical orbit between Mars and Earth; this project defended by Edwin Aldrin would make a permanent connection between the two planets. A Mars cycler is a permanently orbiting vehicle with a path that alternately brings it near Earth and Mars. Once a cycler has been accelerated into orbit it continues on its own momentum, going back and forth between the two planets, only requiring propellant for occasional course adjustments. A one-way trip between Earth and Mars involves six to eight months of space travel, therefore a large and well-equipped Mars cycler would offer space explorers, and possibly even space tourists, better accommodations for these long journeys. Smaller spacecraft would ferry travelers between the planets and the cycler. A Mars cycler is a permanently orbiting vehicle with a path that alternately brings

Phobos and Mars - Illustration - Phobos and Mars - Illustration - Artist's view of Phobos, the largest of Mars's two satellites. This is how Mars and its tiny satellite Phobos might appear from a distance of about 100 miles from Phobos' surface. Phobos is over the low martian plains of Syrtis Major. Below the plains extending down to Mars' terminator and beyond is the heavily cratered Terra Sabaea. Clouds of water - ice crystals are forming at the terminator between light and dark. Looking more like a common potato than a celestial body, Phobos is actually the larger of Mars' two satellites, with a length of about 16 miles and about 11 miles across its smallest dimension. Phobos does not have enough mass for gravity to pull it into a uniform sphere like the larger satellites and planets in the Solar System. Phobos may be an asteroid long ago captured by Mars' gravity, orbiting a mere 5,800 miles above Mars' surface, making it the closest satellite to its host planet in the Solar System

Tethys, Saturn satellite, seen by the Cassini probe - Saturn's moon Tethys seen by Cassini spacecraft - The Tethys satellite photographed by the Cassini probe on August 30, 2007 at a distance of 97,000 km. Tethys is about 1070 km in diameter. At the top left of the picture is the gigantic impact crater Odysseus, which measures 450 km in diameter. The vast expanse of the crater Odysseus spreads out below Cassini in this mosaic view of Saturn's moon Tethys. The crater (450 kilometers or 280 miles across) is a remarkably well - preserved example of an ancient multi - ringed impact basin: the outer ring is defined by steep, cliff - like walls that descend to generally broad internal terraces. The inner ring is formed by a prominent, crown - shaped, 140 - kilometer (88 - mile) diameter circular band of icy mountains. Multi - ring basins are seen on rocky bodies as well as icy ones. The complex internal structure and multi - ringed nature of these very large basins are believed to arise from

New Horizons closest approach to Pluto - Artist's view of the New Horizons probe near Pluto and its largest satellite Charon. The New Horizons probe was launched on 19 January 2006 to Jupiter, then Pluto and Charon, which it will reach in 2015 and Kuiper's objects in 2020. Nasa's New Horizons unmanned spacecraft flies into the shadow of dwarf planet Pluto and its moon Charon. New Horizons has been en route to Pluto since its launch from Earth in 2006 and is scheduled to make its closest approach on 14 July 2015. New Horizons will be traveling at a velocity relative to Pluto of 30,800 mph, far too fast for it to enter orbit around and become a satellite of Pluto. Instead after passing Pluto, New Horizons will continue farther into the Kuiper belt searching for other objects with diameters of 30 to 60 miles.

Saturn rings seen in ultraviolet by Cassini - Saturn's rings in utraviolet - Saturn rings seen in ultraviolet by the Cassini probe. The colours indicate a different distribution of the material within the rings. This false - color image of Saturn's main rings was made by combining data from multiple star occultations using the Cassini ultraviolet imaging spectrograph. During occultations, scientists observe the brightness of a star as the rings pass in front of the star. This provides a measurement of the amount of ring material between the spacecraft and the star. Cassini has given scientists the most detailed view yet of Saturn's densely packed B ring. Cassini found that this part of the rings is densely packed with clumps, called self - gravity wakes, separated by almost empty gaps. These clumps in Saturn's B ring are neatly organized and constantly colliding, which surprised scientists. The clumps in Saturn's B ring, 30 to 50 meters (100 to 160 feet) across, are too small to be see

This image gives the first clear view of the faint boundary of the Crab Nebula's X - ray - emitting pulsar wind nebula. The nebula is powered by a rapidly rotating, highly magnetized neutron star, or pulsar (white dot near the center). The combination of rapid rotating and strong magnetic field generates an intense electromagnetic field that creates jets of matter and anti - matter moving away from the north and south poles of the pulsar, and an intense wind flowing out in the equatorial direction.

Cheju Island, is an oval - shaped volcanic landmass covering 1,845 square kilometers (712 square miles) off the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula. Geologists estimate the island's age at 2 million years, and archaeological finds suggest that people have lived on the island since prehistoric times. Today, Cheju is both a tourist attraction and home to an UNESCO World Heritage site. The Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus on Nasa's Landsat - 7 satellite captured this image of Cheju Island on April 6, 2000. In this photo - like image, cloudless skies allow a clear view of the island and the swirling blue hues of the surrounding waters. Urbanized areas, such as the capital city, Cheju

The galactic center seen by Spitzer Space Telescope - The galactic center region seen by Spitzer satellite. The area photographed extends over 890 light-years and over 640 light-years high. In visible light, this area is hidden by a large amount of interstellar dust. This picture in false colors shows the old and cold stars in blue, and the red regions the hot and massive stars. Dark and bright filamentous clouds are star-forming regions. The brightest area in the center of the image is the center of our galaxy which houses a supermassive black hole. This infrared image from Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope shows hundreds of thousands of stars crowded into the swirling core of our spiral Milky Way galaxy. In visible-light pictures, this region cannot be seen at all because dust lying between Earth and the galactic center blocks our view.

Gl 581c: discovery of a habitable planet - Gl 581c: discovery of an habitable planet - Artist's view of the exoplanet Gliese 581c. Gliese 581c, with a radius of 1.5 times that of the Earth, is the first exoplanet gathering the necessary elements to imagine the existence of a possible extra-terrestrial life. From its surface, its star, about 100 times less bright than our Sun, must be large in the sky because of its proximity to the planet. In April 2007 the Geneva Observatory in Switzerland announced the discovery of a “super - earth”” extrasolar planet orbiting the red dwarf star Gliese 581. Dubbed Gliese 581 c, it's been called a super - earth because it is one of the few known extrasolar planets that has a mass near Earth's, and the only one to occupy its sun's “” habitable zone.”” Gliese 581 c is believed to be about five times more massive than the Earth with a diameter about half - again as large as Earth's.

Orion nebula centre - Trapeze - Orion nebula center - Mosaic of images obtained by the space telescope in 1994 and 1995 showing the center of Orion nebula, the region around the Trapeze, a cluster of 4 very young and massive stars that make this nebula shine. The picture shows a churning turbulent star factory set within a maelstrom of flowing, luminescent gas. Although this 2.5 light - years wide view is still a small portion of the entire Orion nebula, it includes almost all of the light from the bright glowing clouds of gas and a star cluster associated with the nebula. Hubble reveals details as small as 4.1 billion miles across. Hubble Space Telescope observing time was devoted to making this panorama because the nebula is a vast laboratory for studying the processes which gave birth to our own Sun and solar system 4.5 billion years ago.

Infrared view of the Andromeda galaxy - Infrared view of the Andromeda galaxy - This image shows the difference in infrared radiation between the light emitted by the aged stars (blue) and that emitted by the dust (star-forming zone, red). By measuring the infrared radiation emitted by a galaxy, more or less important depending on the nature of the stars, the mass of that galaxy can be reduced. According to this method, the mass of stars in the Andromede galaxy would be 110 billion times that of the Sun, which means that this galaxy would have 1 trillion stars (our galaxy had 400 billion). In this image we distinguish the two satellite galaxies of Andromede, M32 at the bottom and NGC 205 (M110) at the top. Infrared composite at the following wavelengths: 3.6 and 4.5 microns: sensitive to star light (blue and green), and 8 micron sensitive to dust in red. 3000 different poses obtained by the Spitzer space telescope in January and August 2005 were required to achieve this complete view o

Flying Star Zeta Ophiuchi - Runaway Star Zeta Ophiuchi - The blue star near the center of the image is Zeta Ophiuchi, a very massive star moving at 24 km per second. It is a “” fleeing star”, a star ejected by the explosion of his companion star. In this infrared image obtained by the WISE (Wide - field Infrared Survey Explorer) satellite, the interstellar dust traversed by the star appears, as well as an arc-shaped shock wave caused by the powerful stellar winds that the star breaks. The blue star near the center of this image is Zeta Ophiuchi. When seen in visible light it appears as a relatively dim red star surrounded by other dim stars and no dust. However, in this infrared image taken with Nasa's Wide - field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, a completely different view emerges. Zeta Ophiuchi is actually a very massive, hot, bright blue star plowing its way through a large cloud of interstellar dust and gas.

Our galaxy-position of the Sun -Artist's view - Our galaxy, the Milky Way - Artwork - Representation of our galaxy, the lactee path, with the position of our Sun. Following observations made in infrared by the Spitzer space telescope, astronomers believe that our galaxy is a spiral galaxy consisting of two main arms (Scutum-Centaurus and Perseus) visible from the extremities of a large central bar. Two smaller arms (Norma and Sagittarius) are located between the main arms. The main arms contain the highest densities in stars, the other two are essentially gas. A new spiral arm, called the arm of the kiloparsec Far-3, runs along the bar of the galaxy. Our sun is close to a small interrupted arm called Orion's arm, located between the arms of Sagittarius and Persee. The Lactee Way was previously thought to have four main arms. Using infrared images from Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope, scientists have discovered that the Milky Way's elegant spiral structure is dominated by just two arms w
