Great Picture Of The Moon Between The Clouds.

Here is a very distant globular cluster called NGC 6229 found in the constellation Hercules, it is about 100,000 light years distant. It has a visual magnitude of 9.39. What a difference distant makes when you compare this globular cluster with the spectacular Hercules cluster (25,000 light years away) which is found in the same constellation.

Europa is the smallest of the four Galilean moons orbiting Jupiter, and the sixth-closest to the planet. It is also the sixth-largest moon in the Solar System. The image 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.

Barnard 150 (B150) dark nebula, also known as the Sea Horse Nebula, is a type of interstellar cloud that is extremely dense that it blocks the light from the background emission or reflection nebula making it block out background stars. The absence of the light is caused by interstellar dust grains located in the coldest, densest parts of larger molecular clouds.

Once upon a time, Mars had lakes, or at least wetter conditions than it does today. The latest from NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover shows slabs of rock cross-hatched with shallow ridges that likely originated as cracks in drying mud, evidence of an ancient era when these sediments were deposited were.
