Stars cluster in the Nebula of the Eagle - Young stars in the Eagle nebula - Detail on young stars located in the cluster of stars NGC 6611 of the Nebula of the Eagle (M16). Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. A spectacular section of the well - known Eagle Nebula has been targeted by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. This collection of dazzling stars is called NGC 6611, an open star cluster that formed about 5.5 million years ago and is found approximately 6500 light - years from the Earth. It is a very young cluster, containing many hot, blue stars, whose fierce ultraviolet glow make the surrounding Eagle Nebula glow brightly. The cluster and the associated nebula together are also known as Messier 16. Astronomers refer to areas like the Eagle Nebula as HII regions. This is the scientific notation for ionised hydrogen from which the region is largely made. Extrapolating far into the future, this HII region will eventually disperse, helped along by shockwaves from superno

Remains of the supernova Kepler in Ophiuchus - Nasa's three Great Observatories - - the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer Space Telescope, and the Chandra X - ray Observatory - joined forces to probe the expanding remains of a supernova, called Kepler's supernova remnant, first seen 400 years ago by sky watchers, including famous astronomer Johannes Kepler. The combined image unveils a bubble - shaped shroud of gas and dust that is 14 light - years wide and is expanding at 4 million miles per hour (2,000 kilometers per second). Observations from each telescope highlight distinct features of the supernova remnant, a fast - moving shell of iron - rich material from the exploded star, surrounded by an expanding shock wave that is sweeping up interstellar gas and dust. Each color in this image represents a different region of the electromagnetic spectrum, from X - rays to infrared light. The X - ray and infrared data cannot be seen with the human eye.

Richat structure - Mauritania - satellite view - Richat structure, Mauritania, seen by satellite - Richat structure is a geological formation of volcanic origin in Mauritania. This “eye” measures 50 km in diameter. This image is a combination of an image obtained by the Landsat satellite in 1987 and a radar image obtained from the Space Shuttle (SRTM) in 2000. The relief is exaggerated by about 6 times. The picture covers an area of 68 km by 112 km. This prominent circular feature, known as the Richat Structure, in the Sahara desert of Mauritania is often noted by astronauts because it forms a conspicuous 50 - kilometer - wide (30 - mile - wide) bull's - eye on the otherwise rather featureless expanse of the desert. Initially mistaken for a possible impact crater, it is now known to be an eroded circular anticline (structural dome) of layered sedimentary rocks. Extensive sand dunes occur in this region and the interaction of bedrock topography, wind, and moving sand is evident in this

Mimas, satellite of Saturn, seen by the Cassini probe on 13/02/2010 - Saturn's moon Mimas seen by Cassini spacecraft - February 13 2010 - The Mimas satellite seen in false colours by the Cassini probe on 13 February 2010 has a distance of 16,000 km from the satellite. Color differences reveal differences in terrain nature. Mimas is about 400 km in diameter. At the right centre is the large impact crater Herschel, 130 km wide. Subtle color differences on Saturn's moon Mimas are apparent in this false - color view of Herschel Crater captured by Nasa's Cassini spacecraft during its closest - ever flyby of that moon. The image shows terrain - dependent color variations, particularly the contrast between the bluish materials in and around Herschel Crater (130 kilometers, or 80 miles, wide) and the greenish cast on older, more heavily cratered terrain elsewhere. The origin of the color differences is not yet understood, but may be caused by subtle differences in the surface composition betwe

Detail of the Tarantula nebula (NGC 2070) in the Dorado - Detail of the Tarentula nebula in Dorado - Image of a detail of the Tarantula nebula obtained in December 2001 with the WFI instrument of the ESO/MPG 2.2 telescope - m at the La Silla Observatory. The Tarantula Nebula (or 30 Dorada) is the largest star-forming region of the Great Magellan Cloud, a galaxy adjacent to ours. It is located 170,000 light years ago in the constellation Dorado (southern hemisphere). This image shows the turbulent region around the ring - shaped nebula DEM L 299 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way system. It was produced by combining three monochromatic images obtained in December 2001 with the Wide - Field - Imager (WFI) at the ESO/MPG 2.2 - m telescope at the La Silla Observatory. North is up and East is left. The coloured rings seen near some of the brighter stars in the field result from light reflections in the telescope optics. The Tarantula Nebula is one of the most

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. Astronomers theorize that this stellar juggernaut was likely once part

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

Star field in the halo of the Andromede galaxy - Deep field image in the halo of Andromeda galaxy - Deep field in the halo of the Andromede galaxy obtained by the Hubble space telescope in 2003. 300,000 stars as well as thousands of background galaxies are visible. Astronomers using Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope (HST) have reliably measured the age of the spherical halo of stars surrounding the neighboring Andromeda galaxy (M31). To their surprise, they have discovered that approximately one - third of the stars in Andromeda's halo formed only 6 to 8 billion years ago. That's a far cry from the 11 - to - 13 billion - year age of the stars in the Milky Way's halo. Why the difference in halo ages? Apparently, M31 must have gone through a major “” corporate merger”” with another large galaxy, or a series of mergers with smaller galaxies, billions of years ago. Astronomers cannot yet tell whether this was one tumultuous event or a more continual acquisition of smaller galaxies. The newly d

Southern constellations around the Clock - Southern constellations around Horologium - Southern constellations around the Clock. The two bright stars are Canopus (bottom) and Achernar. This wide angle image includes Horologium, Phoenix and Pictor, insignificant constellations roughly centred on an arc of delination 50* south, but at a scale too small to show the star identifications and stick figures. Horologium, the Pendulum Clock (originally l'Horloge and then Horologium Oscillitorium), was a constellation introduced by Abbe Nicolas Louis de Lacaille during his stay at the Cape of Good Hope between 1751 and 1752. It was named to honor Christian Huygens as the inventor of this type of clock, but the idea for such a method of regulating time came from Galileo. Lacaille's constellation drawing shows a remarkably detailed dial, weights and a pendulum that has little apparent connection with the scattering of faint stars in this part of the sky.

Europe - Jupiter Satellite - View of the surface of the Europe satellite obtained from images made by the Galileo probe in 1995 and 1998. Jupiter's icy moon Europa looms large in this newly - reprocessed color view, made from images taken by Nasa's Galileo spacecraft in the late 1990s. This is the color view of Europa from Galileo that shows the largest portion of the moon's surface at the highest resolution. To create this new version, the images were assembled into a realistic color view of the surface that approximates how Europa would appear to the human eye. The scene shows the stunning diversity of Europa's surface geology. Long, linear cracks and ridges crisscross the surface, interrupted by regions of disrupted terrain where the surface ice crust has been broken up and re - frozen into new patterns. Color variations across the surface are associated with differences in geologic feature type and location. For example, areas that appear blue or white contain relatively pure water

Planetary nebula NGC 6543 in the Dragon/HST - This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image shows one of the most complex planetary nebulae ever seen, NGC 6543, nicknamed the “Cat's Eye Nebula.””” Hubble reveals surprisingly intricate structures including concentric gas shells, jets of high - speed gas and unusual shock - induced knots of gas. Estimated to be 1,000 years old, the nebula is a visual “” fossil record”” of the dynamics and late evolution of a dying star. A preliminary interpretation suggests that the star might be a double - star system. The dynamical effects of two stars orbiting one another most easily explains the intricate structures, which are much more complicated than features seen in most planetary nebulae. (The two stars are too close together to be individually resolved by Hubble, and instead, appear as a single point of light at the center of the nebula.) According to this model, a fast “” stellar wind””” of gas blown off the central star created the elongated shell o

Estimated to be 1,000 years old, the nebula is a visual “” fossil record”” of the dynamics and late evolution of a dying star. A preliminary interpretation suggests that the star might be a double - star system. The dynamical effects of two stars orbiting one another most easily explains the intricate structures, which are much more complicated than features seen in most planetary nebulae. (The two stars are too close together to be individually resolved by Hubble, and instead, appear as a single point of light at the center of the nebula.) According to this model, a fast “” stellar wind””” of gas blown off the central star created the elongated shell o

The Hanger and Nebula SH2 - 83 - Coathanger and nebula SH2 - 83 in Vulpecula - The Hanger cluster or Brocchi cluster (left) is not a true cluster of stars but an asterism located in the constellation of Little Fox. Towards the center of the image, a small nebula emitted, Sh2 - 83. Little Fox Constellation. Brocchi's Cluster (also known as the Coathanger or Collinder 399) is an asterism located in the constellation Vulpecula. It was first described by the Persian astronomer Al Sufi in his Book of Fixed Stars in 964 and was independently rediscovered by Giovanni Hodierna in the seventeenth century. In the 1920s, D. F. Brocchi, an amateur astronomer and chart maker for the American Association of Variable Star Observers, created a map of this object for use in calibrating photometers. The asterism is made up of ten stars ranging from fifth to seventh magnitude which form the conspicuous Coathanger, a straight line of six stars with a “” hook””” of four stars on the south side.

Field of distant galaxies - Hubble eXtreme Deep Field (XDF) - Distant galaxies - Hubble eXtreme Deep Field (XDF) - Image of distant galaxies obtained in infrared by the Hubble space telescope in the constellation of the Furnace. The farthest galaxies visible in this image are 13.2 billion light years away. Called the Extreme Deep Field, or XDF, the photo was assembled by combining 10 years of NASA Hubble Space Telescope photographs taken of a patch of sky at the center of the original Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The XDF is a small fraction of the angular diameter of the full Moon. The Hubble Ultra Deep Field is an image of a small area of space in the constellation Fornax, created using Hubble Space Telescope data from 2003 and 2004. By collecting faint light over many hours of observation, it revealed thousands of galaxies, both nearby and very distant, making it the deepest image of the universe ever taken at that time. The new full - color XDF image reaches much fainter galaxies, and i
