La Terre vue par satellite - Flying over 700 km above the Earth onboard the Terra satellite, MODIS provides an integrated tool for observing a variety of terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric features of the Earth. The land and coastal ocean portions of these images are based on surface observations collected from June through September 2001 and combined, or composited, every eight days to compensate for clouds that might block the sensor's view of the surface on any single day. Two different types of ocean data were used in these images: shallow water true color data, and global ocean color (or chlorophyll) data. Topographic shading is based on the GTOPO 30 elevation dataset compiled by the U.S. Geological Survey's EROS Data Center. MODIS observations of polar sea ice were combined with observations of Antarctica made by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's AVHRR sensor - - the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer

Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - The Omega nebula (M17) in Sagittarius - View of the Omega nebula (M17/NGC 6618) located in the constellation Sagittarius at a distance of 5700 light years. This object derives its name from its looped shape reminiscent of the Greek letter when the nebula is seen in a telescope. The gas cloud is unusual in that it does not appear to be illuminated by the bright stars that commonly found in emission nebulae such as this. However, the nebulosity is very bright, so the exciting stars must be hidden within the cloud, an idea confirmed by the infrared brightness of the nebula. It is about 6000 light years distant

Saturn against day seen by Cassini - Mosaic of 165 photos obtained by the Cassini probe on September 15, 2006 has a distance of 2.2 million km from the planet. The probe remained 12 hours in Saturn's shadow, allowing it to study Saturn's rings under a particular light. During these observations, two new rings of particles were discovered near ring G. The ring system of rings is composed from the closest to Saturn to the outermost by ring D, then C, B, the division of Cassini, A with the division of Encke, F, G and E. On this view where the contrast has been exaggerated, rings G and E are visible.

Saturn rings C - B by Cassini - false colors - Image in fake colors made by the Cassini probe on June 30, 2004. The different colors correspond to differences in the chemical composition of the particles that make up the rings. The ring system is composed from the closest to Saturn to the outermost by ring D, then C, B, the division of Cassini, A with the division of Encke, F, G and E. Here are the variations in the composition of rings C and B that are watched. Turquoise blue corresponds to particles composed of pure ice; in red, dirty and finer ice particles.

Saturn seen by the Cassini probe 04/2007 - Saturn from Cassini spacecraft 04/2007 - Image obtained by the Cassini probe on 13 April 2007 at a distance of 1.8 million km from the planet. Colorful Saturn tilts its darkened ringplane towards Cassini. Against the dark sky, the rings are made visible by the light that scatters through them towards the camera. The F ring shepherd moon Pandora (84 kilometers, or 52 miles across) is faintly visible at the top, left of center. Pandora's brightness was increased by a factor of three to aid its visibility. This view looks toward the unilluminated side of the rings from about 18 degrees above the ringplane. The planet is visible through the innermost and outermost portions of the rings. The images were obtained by the Cassini spacecraft wide - angle camera on April 13, 2007, at a distance of approximately 1.8 million kilometers (1.1 million miles) from Saturn

Space Telescope Spitzer - Artist view - The Spitzer space telescope. Artwork - The Spitzer space telescope observes the universe in infrared; it was launched and put into orbit in August 2003. Spitzer looks towards the Rho Ophiuchi star - formation region looming just above the disk of the Milky Way. The Spitzer Space Telescope (formerly SIRTF, the Space Infrared Telescope Facility) was launched into space by a Delta rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida on 25 August 2003. During its mission, Spitzer will obtain images and spectra by detecting the infrared energy, or heat, radiated by objects in space between wavelengths of 3 and 180 microns (1 micron is one - millionth of a meter). Most of this infrared radiation is blocked by the Earth's atmosphere and cannot be observed from the ground

As depicted in this illustration, Cassini will plunge into Saturn's atmosphere on Sept 15, 2017. Using its attitude control thrusters, the spacecraft will work to keep its antenna pointed at Earth while it sends its final data, including the composition of Saturn's upper atmosphere. The atmospheric torque will quickly become stronger than what the thrusters can compensate for, and after that point, Cassini will begin to tumble. When this happens, its radio connection to Earth will be severed, ending the mission. Following loss of signal, the spacecraft will burn up like a meteor in Saturn's upper atmosphere.

Black Holes in 3C75 - Black Holes in 3C75 - Composite X-ray image (blue) and radio (pink) of the active galaxy 3C 75. At the center of this very hot gas mass, two supermassive black holes separated by 25,000 years - light form a binary system of black holes (the two bright points). This composite X - ray/radio image of Abell 400 shows radio jets (pink), immersed in a vast cloud of multimillion degree X - ray emitting gas (blue) that pervades the cluster. The jets emanate from the vicinity of two supermassive black holes (bright spots in the image) in the galaxy. Chandra and radio data confirm that the unusual structure is due to the merger of two large galaxies, whose supermassive black holes are bound together by their mutual gravity. The swept - back appearance of the radio jets is produced by the rapid motion of the galaxy through the hot gas of the cluster, in much the same way that a motorcyclist's scarf is swept back while speeding down the road

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.

Three of these satellites record nighttime data. The DMSP - OLS has a unique capability to detect low levels of visible - near infrared (VNIR) radiance at night. With the OLS “” VIS”” band data it is possible to detect clouds illuminated by moonlight, plus lights from cities, towns, industrial sites, gas flares, and ephemeral events such as fires and lightning - illuminated clouds. The Nighttime Lights of the World data set is compiled from the October 1994 - March 1995 DMSP nighttime data collected when moonlight was low.
