Interacting galaxies ESO 593 - 8 in Sagittarius - Interacting galaxies ESO 593 - 8 in Sagittarius - The galaxy ESO 593 - 8 is located about 650 million years away from Earth. It's a pair of interacting galaxies that will probably merge into a single galaxy. Regions of intense star formations appear in blue. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on 19 March 2002. ESO 593 - 8 is an impressive pair of interacting galaxies with a feather - like galaxy crossing a companion galaxy. The two components will probably merge to form a single galaxy in the future. The pair is adorned with a number of bright blue star clusters. ESO 593 - 8 is located in the constellation of Sagittarius, the Archer, some 650 million light - years away from Earth. Image taken by the Hubble space telescope on march 19, 2002

Interacting galaxies ZW II 96 - Interacting galaxies ZW II 96 - The galaxy ZW II 96 is located about 500 million light years away from Earth in the constellation of the Dolphin. This system consists of interacting galaxies shows an important star formation. This is a system of merging galaxies with a bizarre shape. Powerful young starburst regions hang as long threadlike structures between the main galaxy cores. The system almost qualifies as an ultra - luminous system, but has not yet reached the late stage of coalescence that is the norm for most ultra - luminous systems. ZW II 96 is located in the constellation of Delphinus, the Dolphin, about 500 million light - years away from Earth

Interacting Galaxies Markarian 848 - Interacting galaxies Markarian 848 - The Markarian 848 galaxy is located about 550 million light years away from Earth in the constellation Bovier. This galaxy consists of two galaxies that merge. The nuclei of each of these galaxies are still visible and are apart by 16,000 light years. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on November 13, 2001. VV 705, or Markarian 848, consists of two galaxies that seem to be embracing each other. Two long, highly curved arms of gas and stars emerge from a central region with two cores. One arm, curving clockwise, stretches to the top of the image where it makes a U - turn and interlocks with the other arm that curves up counter - clockwise from below. The two cores are 16,000 light - years apart. The pair is thought to be midway through a merger. Markarian 848 is located in the constellation of Bootes, the Bear Watcher, and is approximately 550 million light - years away from Earth. Image taken by the Hub

Dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX in the Great Bear - Dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX in Ursa Major - The dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX is located 12 million years - light from Earth in the constellation of the Great Bear, just above the spiral galaxy M81. Of the 20,000 stars visible on this image obtained by the Hubble space telescope, more than 90% are young stars aged between 10 and 200 million years. The proximity of other galaxies, including M81, is believed to be at the origin of this recent star formation. This loose collection of stars is actually a dwarf irregular galaxy, called Holmberg IX. It resides just off the outer edge of M81, a large spiral galaxy in Ursa Major. This image was taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys in early 2006. Holmberg IX is of the so - called Magellanic type of galaxy, as its size and irregularity in structure are similar to the Small Magellanic Cloud, a neighbour to our own Milky Way. It is suspected that the dwarf galaxy was created as a result of a galactic

Bright spots are visible, probably salt deposits. Mosaic of images taken by the Dawn probe. Occator Crater, home of Ceres' intriguing brightest areas, is 57 miles (92 kilometers) wide and 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) deep. Occator displays evidence of recent geologic activity. The latest research suggests that the bright material in this crater is comprised of salts left behind after a briny liquid emerged from below, froze and then sublimated, meaning it turned from ice into vapor.

Coma cluster of galaxies Abell 1656 - Coma cluster of galaxies - The Comas cluster is a large cluster of galaxies, comprising several thousand galaxies. It is located more than 300 million light years ago in the constellation Coma Berenices (Berenice Hair). This photo from the Hubble Space Telescope shows part of the cluster of a brilliant spiral galaxy, IC 4040, in the top left, and many elliptical galaxies. Also known as Abell 1656, the Coma Cluster is over 300 million light - years away. The cluster, named after its parent constellation Coma Berenices, is near the Milky Way's north pole. This places the Coma Cluster in an area unobscured by dust and gas from the plane of the Milky Way, and easily visible by Earth viewers. This Hubble image consists of a section of the cluster that is roughly one - third of the way out from the center of the cluster. One bright spiral galaxy is visible in the upper left of the image.

Barree spiral galaxy NGC 1300 in Eridan - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 1300 in Eridanus - The galaxy NGC1300 is located about 60 million years ago - light and extends over about 85 000 years - light. This image was obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in September 2004. NGC 1300 is considered to be prototypical of barred spiral galaxies. Barred spirals differ from normal spiral galaxies in that the arms of the galaxy do not spiral all the way into the center, but are connected to the two ends of a straight bar of stars containing the nucleus at its center. At Hubble's resolution, a myriad of fine details, some of which have never before been seen, is seen throughout the galaxy's arms, disk, bulge, and nucleus. Blue and red supergiant stars, star clusters, and star - forming regions are well resolved across the spiral arms, and dust lanes trace out fine structures in the disk and bar. Numerous more distant galaxies are visible in the background, and are seen even through the densest regio

Interacting galaxies NGC 3256 - Interacting galaxies NGC 3256 - The special galaxy NGC 3256 is located about 100 million light years away from Earth in the southern constellation of Sails. A vestige of the collision of two galaxies, this system presents a double nucleus and many young clusters of stars. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope on November 5, 2001. NGC 3256 is an impressive example of a peculiar galaxy that is actually the relict of a collision of two separate galaxies that took place in a distant past. The telltale signs of the collision are two extended luminous tails swirling out from the galaxy. NGC 3256 belongs to the Hydra - Centaurus supercluster complex and provides a nearby template for studying the properties of young star clusters in tidal tails. The system hides a double nucleus and a tangle of dust lanes in the central region. The tails are studded with a particularly high density of star clusters.

Planetary nebula NGC 6369 in Ophiuchus/HST - NGC 6369 is known to amateur astronomers as the “” Little Ghost Nebula,”” because it appears as a small, ghostly cloud surrounding the faint, dying central star. NGC 6369 lies in the direction of the constellation Ophiuchus, at a distance estimated to be between about 2,000 and 5,000 light - years from Earth. When a star with a mass similar to that of our own Sun nears the end of its lifetime, it expands in size to become a red giant. The red - giant stage ends when the star expels its outer layers into space, producing a faintly glowing nebula. Astronomers call such an object a planetary nebula, because its round shape resembles that of a planet when viewed with a small telescope. The Hubble photograph of NGC 6369, captured with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) in February 2002, reveals remarkable details of the ejection process that are not visible from ground - based telescopes because of the blurring produced by the Earth's atmo

Planetary nebula IC 4406 dans le Loup/HST - One of the most interesting features of IC 4406, the “” Retina Nebula””, is the irregular lattice of dark lanes that criss - cross the center of the nebula. These lanes are about 160 astronomical units wide (1 astronomical unit is the distance between the Earth and Sun). They are located right at the boundary between the hot glowing gas that produces the visual light imaged here and the neutral gas seen with radio telescopes. We see the lanes in silhouette because they have a density of dust and gas that is a thousand times higher than the rest of the nebula. The dust lanes are like a rather open mesh veil that has been wrapped around the bright donut. This image is a composite of data taken by Hubble's Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 in June 200

This crater is located in the southern hemisphere where it was winter at the time this image was taken on November 25, 2006. This observation documents new seasonal processes occurring on dunes at this latitude, as well as other interesting phenomena. The bright tones are interpreted as carbon dioxide or water frost. This is generally concentrated on the east - facing slopes of the dunes, which are in shadow and therefore cooler. Some dark spots on the dunes may be areas that have defrosted more than surrounding terrain. Landslides and dark - toned streaks are seen on many of the west -

HIRISE is a 50 cm telescope that observes visible and near infrared. Formative down-slope winds descending on Mars' North Polar ice cap likely play an important role in transporting sediment from the base of the ice cap into the dune fields that sit beyond the ice cap. The deep chasm that formed on the polar cap edge is identified as an area of strong down-slope winds and has a clear connection to Mars' largest dune field, Olympia Undae. Repeat HiRise images from this chasm that specifically targets the dunes, provides the basis to evaluate the sand fluxes which are associated with the dune and ripple movement in this area

Nebula NGC 1333 in Persee infrared view - NGC 1333 star - forming region seen in infrared. - NGC 1333 is a nebula located between 700 and 1000 years - light of the Earth. It's a reflexion nebula and a star-forming region. Viewed here in infrared by the Spitzer space telescope, young stars become visible. Jets of matter, in yellow - green, emerge from extremely young embryonic stars. Located between 700 and 1000 light - years from Earth in the constellation Perseus, the reflection nebula called NGC 1333 is seen here in infrared pictured by the Spitzer Space Telescope. The young stars in NGC 1333 do not form a single cluster, but are split between two sub-groups. One group is to the north near the nebula, dominated by the infrared light from warm dust shown as red in the image. The other group is south, where the features shown in yellow and green abound in the densest part of the natal gas cloud.
