Venus Surface - Artist View - Venus from ground level - Artist view - A visit to Venus 'surface would reveal a wasteland of vast proportions. While Venus is nearly as large as the Earth, it has over three times the land mass (most of the Earth's surface is under water). The conditions are so dry and hostile to life as we know it the surface of Venus is likely as sterile as an autoclave. Venus' surface is actually hotter than Mercury's, despite being nearly twice as far from the Sun. It is so hot that the stony venusian ground itself may be slightly plastic and emit a red glow at night. The closest the Earth comes to matching this combination of extreme pressure and temperature is in the realm of deep undersea volcanic vents

M66, with its neighbors M65 and NGC 3628, forms a remarkable triplet of galaxies, called the Lion Triplet or the M66 Group. NGC 3627, also known as Messier 66, is a beautiful spiral with a well - developed central bulge. It also displays large - scale dust lanes. The galaxy forms, together with its neighbours M65 and NGC 3628, the so - called “Leo Triplet””; they are located at a distance of about 35 million light - years. M 66 is the largest of the three. Its spiral arms appear distorted and displaced above the main plane of the galaxy. The asymmetric appearance is most likely due to gravitational interaction with its neighbours

In the background, many distant galaxies are visible. This image from the Advanced Camera for Surveys aboard the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope highlights the large and bright elliptical galaxy called ESO 306 - 17 in the southern sky. In this image, it appears that ESO 306 - 17 is surrounded by other galaxies but the bright galaxies at bottom left are thought to be in the foreground, not at the same distance in the sky. In reality, ESO 306 - 17 lies fairly abandoned at half a billion light - years from Earth in an enormous sea of dark matter and hot gas

In this image Saturn dominates Iapetus' velvet black sky framed by three inner moons. Left to right are Tethys, Rhea and Dione. Less than half the size of the Earth's moon, ice - covered Iapetus is one of the few places in the Solar System that offers a good view of Saturn's rings. This is because Iapetus' orbit is inclined almost 15 degrees to Saturn's equator. With the exception of Phoebe, none of Saturn's other satellites offer such a vantage point. Unlike haze - shrouded Titan, Iapetus has no atmosphere to speak of and is believed to be composed almost entirely of water ice

This star-forming region is illuminated by massive young stars. This complex mass of molecular hydrogen and dust, located 4,000 light years from earth, glows red by emitting light, shines blue by reflecting light and exhibits a pattern of dark lanes that result when dust absorbs light. Much of the light seen in the main part of this nebula is generated by the massive bright star near it's center. The Cocoon is a stellar nursery containing a relatively young open cluster of stars with several individual constituents that are newly formed

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

Spiral galaxies NGC 3314 A and B in Hydra - Galaxy pair NGC 3314 in Hydra - NGC 3314 is a pair of spiral galaxies distant about 140 million years - Earth light. These galaxies are not interacting but just perfectly aligned in front of each other from Earth. Through an extraordinary chance alignment, a face - on spiral galaxy lies precisely in front of another larger spiral. This line - up provides us with the rare chance to visualize dark material within the front galaxy, seen only because it is silhouetted against the object behind it. NGC 3314 lies about 140 million light - years from Earth, in the direction of the southern hemisphere constellation Hydra. The bright blue stars forming a pinwheel shape near the center of the front galaxy have formed recently from interstellar gas and dust. In many galaxies, interstellar dust lies only in the same regions as recently formed blue stars. However, in the foreground galaxy, NGC 3314a, there are numerous additional dark dust lanes that are

This galaxy is about 80,000 light years and is approximately 30 million light years apart. This image shows in detail the arms of this galaxy or nebulae and clusters of young stars appear in numbers. NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image of the nearby spiral galaxy M74 (NGC 628), is a composite of Advanced Camera for Surveys' data taken in 2003 and 2005. A small segment of this image used data from the Canada - France - Hawaii Telescope and the Gemini Observatory to fill in a region that Hubble did not image. M74 is located roughly 32 million light - years away in the direction of the constellation Pisces, the Fish. It is the dominant member of a small group of about half a dozen galaxies, the M74 galaxy group. In its entirety, it is estimated that M74 is home to about 100 billion stars, making it slightly smaller than our Milky W

Constellations of Serpens and Ophiuchus - Constellations of Serpens and Ophiuchus - The constellation of Ophiuchus separates the constellation of the Serpent into two parts. Serpens, the Serpent, is an ancient constellation, unique in being formed from two separate sections, Serpens Caput (the head of the snake) to the west and Serpens Cauda (the tail) to the east. Between them lies the constellation of Ophiuchus, the serpent holder, who is usually identified with the ancient Greek physician Asclepius, around whose shoulders or staff a snake is draped. The stars in both parts of Serpens are mostly quite faint and a snake - like shape is hard to pick out in either section. Serpens Cauda is probably easier to locate since it occupies the dusty part of the Milky Way adjoining the brighter star clouds of Scutum and Aquila

Delphinus the Dolphin looks remarkably like the creature it represents. Delphinus is a small constellation of Greek origin, but despite its diminutive size it is quite easy to find. The bright star Altair in neighboring Aquila is probably the best guide. Delphinus' brightest star, Rotanev (ss Del) is of magnitude 4, and its name honors the astronomer Nicolaus Venator (Rotonov backwards). The next brightest star in Delphinus is Sualocin, which at first glance appears English, but is Nicolaus spelled backwards. He was assistant to the rather more famous Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi. The main stars of Sagitta are also well seen here

Like the better known and larger Triceratops, Zuniceratops was a Ceratopsid, a family of four-legged plant-eating dinosaurs characterized by beaks, rows of shearing teeth in the back of the jaw, and elaborate horns and frills. While they resemble defensive shields, the frills are in fact relatively fragile, suggesting that they may have served a purpose other than protecting against a brute force attack. One possibility is that the frills were employed as visual displays in order to intimidate rivals and attract the opposite sex

South pole of the Moon seen by the LRO - South pole of the Moon - Mosaic probe of 288 images obtained in 2010 by the LRO probe. As LRO passes over the pole every two hours, the LROC WAC snaps an image, and over a month, images covering the entire polar region are captured (80* S to 90* S). This mosaic contains 288 images taken in one month; you can see where the month began and ended at about 90* E longitude (note how the lighting changed). The rim of Shackleton crater seems to be disjointed. However, if you look closely, you can see that the Sun came from opposite sides for portions of the mosaic, resulting in opposite sides of the crater's wall being illuminated in some images. As the mission progresses, the WAC captures the pole across the full range of seasons

This mosaic contains 288 images taken in one month; you can see where the month began and ended at about 90* E longitude (note how the lighting changed). The rim of Shackleton crater seems to be disjointed. However, if you look closely, you can see that the Sun came from opposite sides for portions of the mosaic, resulting in opposite sides of the crater's wall being illuminated in some images. As the mission progresses, the WAC captures the pole across the full range of seasons

Nebulae NGC 1973 - 1975 - 1977 in Orion - The reflection nebulae NGC 1973 - 75 - 77 in Orion - Reflection nebulae located just north of the Great Orion Nebula. This group of nebulous stars is just half a degree north of the much brighter Orion Nebula and has largely been ignored because of it. The group of stars here appear as a single star to the unaided eye, the northernmost 'star' in the sword of Orion. Most of the blue nebulosity is starlight scattered by dust, while some of the stars are sufficiently hot to excite the wisps of hydrogen that linger here and create a distinctive red glow. To the south of the nebula (at the bottom of the picture) faint traces of the yellow reflected light of the Orion nebula can just be detected

Simulation of an explosion in geostationary orbit - Simulation of an explosion in geostationary orbit - A satellite in geostationary orbit moves about 3 km per second. During an explosion, debris will move more slowly and remain in the initial orbit. Some fragments will move faster than others, forming a diffuse ring around the Earth. Downstairs, the debris seen two days after the explosion. What happens after an explosion in space? A geostationary satellite has a velocity of about 3 kms/second (10,000 kms/hour). The fragments are ejected with a much lower velocity and thus stay close to the initial orbit. However, some will travel a bit faster and others a bit slower. Within a few days the debris cloud will form a diffuse ring at 36,000 km altitude around the Earth. Bottom, seen two days after the explosion

Detail obtained by the Mars Express probe in September 2005. The High - Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA's Mars Express has returned images of Etus Chasma, one of the largest water source regions on the Red Planet. Echus Chasma is the source region of Kasei Valles which extends 3000 km to the north. The data was acquired on 25 September 2005. The pictures are centred at about 1* north and 278* east and have a ground resolution of approximately 17 m/pixel. The dark material shows a network of light - coloured, incised valleys that look similar to drainage networks known on Earth. It is still debated whether the valleys originate from precipitation, groundwater springs or liquid or magma flows on the surface

Mars: faults in Claritas Fossae. - Mars: fractures in Claritas Fossae - Fracture system in Claritas Fossae, a region south of the Tharsis volcanoes. These fractures, ranging from a few kilometres to a hundred kilometres, are probably associated with the tectonic activity that led to elevation of the Tharsis plateau. Perspective image obtained by the Mars Express probe in 2004. On 29 June 2004 the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) onboard the ESA spacecraft Mars Express obtained image data in orbit 563 with a ground resolution of approximately 62 metres per pixel. The images cover Claritas Fossae at approximately 25* southern latitude and 253* eastern longitude. Claritas Fossae is located on the Tharsis rise, south of the three large volcanoes known as the Tharsis Montes, and extends roughly north to south for approximately 1800 km. Claritas Fossae, which is composed of a series of linear fractures with widths ranging from a few kilometres to 100 km, is roughly 150 km wide in the nor
