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.

The Sombrero Galaxy is one of the most unusual looking barred spiral galaxies visible from Earth. Its bright nucleus, large central bulge and spiral arms threaded through with a thick dust lane make it look a little like a hat from Mexico. The dust lane is a ring that circles the bulge of the galaxy, and it is rich with gas, dust, and hydrogen gas. Source: Space-Facts.

An image of a fresh crater on Mars! The crater spans approximately 30m (100 ft) in diameter and is surrounded by a large, rayed blast zone. Because the terrain where the crater formed is dusty, the fresh crater appears blue in the enhanced colour of the image, due to removal of the reddish dust in that area.
