Southern Crown Nebula - The CRA reflection nebula - R Coronae Australis is a region of star formations visible in the southern hemisphere. It is located about 500 light years away from Earth. On the right, the globular cluster NGC 6723, located 30 000 light years from Earth in Sagittarius. Image made with the 1.2m Telescope of Schmidt UK from Siding Spring. Corona Australis (the southern crown, CRA) is in the far southern sky but visible from the southern states of the USA. The constellation is small but distinctive. The conspicuous globular cluster NGC 6723 is at the western (right) edge of the photograph, but it is in Sagittarius, and is about 30,000 light years distant. Almost all the nebulosity here is starlight, reflected from minute grains of dust, some of which gather into darker condensations ('molecular clouds'), blotting out the background stars. Fainter features can be seen here. Shiny NGC 6726 - 27 near middle of image contains both a visual binary and a variable star. Othe

A Naga Sadhu with his chillam (pipe) at Kumbh Mela, the biggest Hindu religious pilgrimage. The number of pilgrims this year is expected to exceed around five million since the first day of January 14 till it ends on April 28, 2010. The auspicious days of the shahi snan or royal baths usually draw hundreds of thousands of devotees to the Har Ki Pauri and other banks of the Ganges river. As pilgrims from around the world gather on the occasion, most of the city remains shut for any vehicles other than security or emergency services, so a sea of humanity walks through the city to the bathing ghats. Uttarakhand, North India. April 13, 2010. (photo)

Beginning of the march to the river. The one on horseback is holding high the symbol of the sect that is honoured to lead the procession this year. The singer helps building up the tune of the march.

During this time Hindu pilgrims from all over India and the world gather to have a bath in the holy waters at Prayag Raj (Allahabad) as two of Hinduism's most important rivers, the Ganges and the Yamuna converge here.Hindus consider that the confluence, known as the sangam, has great soul-cleansing properties. All pious Hindus hope to bathe here at least once in their lives. Allahabad, India. (photo)

On the left, Rāma is installed as king by the priest Vasiṣṭha, who anoints his brow with sacred marks, while Åšatrughna holds the imperial parasol and the two other brothers hold chowries (fly-whisks). SugrÄ«va had previously sent the monkeys to gather water from the four seas and all the important rivers, which they hold here in golden jars for the coronation ritual. On the right, Rāma, with Sītā beside him on his throne, dispenses gold and jewels to his helpers, all in human form. One of his ministers hands Rāma a necklace of magnificent pearls for Sītā, and she unclasps her own necklace, which she gives to the incomparably wise and valiant Hanumān.

A procession of Naga sadhus (monks) who as per tradition have the first right of bathing in the holy Ganges on the occasion of Shahi Snan in Kumbh Mela, the biggest Hindu religious pilgrimage on earth. The number of pilgrims this year is expected to exceed around five million since the first day on January 14 till it ends on April 28, 2010. The auspicious days of the shahi snan or royal baths usually draw hundreds of thousands of devotees to the Har Ki Pauri and other banks of the Ganges river. As pilgrims from around the world gather on the occasion, most of the city remains shut for any vehicles other than security or emergency services, so a sea of humanity walks through the city to the bathing ghats.

The recovery team is preparing to get astronauts Roberto Vittori, Yuri Gidzenko and Mark Shuttleworth out of the capsule. Russian recovery team members gather around the scorched return module of Soyuz TM - 33, shortly after its landing in the steppes of Kazakhstan and the completion of the Marco Polo mission to the International Space Station (ISS), on May 5, 2002. The recovery team is about to install a scaffolding to help the crew out the module. The Marco Polo mission, with ESA astronaut Roberto Vittori, from Italy, was performed under an agreement between Russia's Rosaviakosmos, the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and ESA. Roberto Vittori was launched into space onboard Soyuz TM - 34 at 12:26 local time on April 25 with Russian mission commander Yuri Gidzenko and South African flight participant Mark S

Nebula NGC 7023 in Cephee - NGC 7023 (The Iris Nebula) in Cepheus - The Iris Nebula (NGC 7023) is a reflexion nebula illuminated by the massive star HD 200775. The bright star HD 200775 shining through the nebula NGC 7023 is a 10 solar mass star centrally imbedded in a region surrounded by ambient molecular cloud material. Suns are born from vast clouds of dust and gas that gather in the dark places between the stars. Gravity causes these interstellar vapors to collapse inward until the pressure causes high enough temperatures at its center to fuse hydrogen, the university's basic building block, into helium - an event that also releases gamma - ray photons. These photons can take a million years to travel outward through the overlying matter until they reach the surface and escape into space as visible light. The push of the photon's rush to make an exit also stops the cloud's collapse and thus what began as thin gas and dust becomes a brilliant star illuminating the heavens and possi

Southern Crown Nebula - The tail of the CRA reflection nebula - R Coronae Australis is a region of star formations visible in the southern hemisphere. It is located about 500 light years away from Earth. On the right, the globular cluster NGC 6723, located 30 000 light years from Earth in Sagittarius. Image made with the 1.2m Telescope of Schmidt UK from Siding Spring. Corona Australis (the southern crown, CRA) is in the far southern sky but visible from the southern states of the USA. The constellation is small but distinctive. The conspicuous globular cluster NGC 6723 is at the western (right) edge of the photograph, but it is in Sagittarius, and is about 30,000 light years distant. Our picture is about 4.5 degrees across and the extremely faint Corona Australis nebula meanders along the Sgr - CRA border nebula in the same E - W direction. Almost all the nebulosity here is starlight, reflected from minute grains of dust, some of which gather into darker condensations ('molecular clou

Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has peered deep into NGC 4631, better known as the Whale Galaxy. Here, a profusion of starbirth lights up the galactic centre, revealing bands of dark material between us and the starburst. The galaxy's activity tapers off in its outer regions where there are fewer stars and less dust, but these are still punctuated by pockets of star formation. The Whale Galaxy is about 30 million light - years away from us in the constellation of Canes Venatici (The Hunting Dogs) and is a spiral galaxy much like the Milky Way. From our vantage point, however, we see the Whale Galaxy edge - on, seeing its glowing centre through dusty spiral arms.

Titan, Saturn satellite seen by Cassini - Saturn's moon Titan as seen by Cassini spacecraft: Visible and infrared composite image of Titan taken by the Cassini probe on November 13, 2015. View of the hemisphere oriente towards Saturn - This composite image shows an infrared view of Saturn's moon Titan from Nasa's Cassini spacecraft, acquired during the mission's “” T-114”” flyby on Nov. 13, 2015. The spacecraft's visual and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) instrument made these observations, in which blue represents wavelengths centered at 1.3 microns, green represents 2.0 microns, and red represents 5.0 microns. A view at visible wavelengths (centered around 0.5 microns) would show only Titan's hazy atmosphere (as in PIA14909). The near-infrared wavelengths in this image allow Cassini's vision to penetrate the haze and reveal the moon's surface - During this Titan flyby, the spacecraft's close-approach altitude was 6,200 miles (10,000 kilometers), which is considerably higher than
