Hidden in one of the darkest corners of the Orion constellation, this cosmic bat spreads its hazy wings through interstellar space two thousand light-years apart. It is illuminated by the young stars nestled in its core – although they are surrounded by opaque clouds of dust, their light rays still illuminate the nebula.

In this illustration, several rings of dust surround the sun. These rings are formed when the gravities of the planets bring back grains of dust in orbit around the sun. Recently, scientists have detected a ring of dust on the orbit of Mercury. Others have speculated that the Venus Dust Ring is a group of co-orbital asteroids never detected before.

The NASA / ESA Hubble Space Telescope celebrates its 28th anniversary in space with this amazing and colorful image of the lagoon nebula at 4,000 light-years from Earth. Although the nebula has a total length of 55 light-years, this image only reveals one part about four light-years away.

Here's a more star-studded view of the lagoon nebula, using Hubble's infrared capabilities. The reason you can see more stars is because the infrared is able to cut through the clouds of dust and gas to reveal the abundance of young stars in the nebula, as well as more distant stars in the background.

The Rosetta Nebula is 5,000 light-years away from Earth. The distinctive nebula, which some say is more like a skull, has a hole in the center that creates the illusion of its rose-shaped shape.

KIC 8462852, also known as the Boyajian Star or Tabby Star, is 1,000 light-years away from us. It's 50% bigger than our sun and 1,000 degrees warmer. And it does not behave like any other star, darkening and lightening sporadically. The dust around the star, shown here in the illustration of an artist, may be the most likely cause of his strange behavior.

This internal slope of a Martian crater presents several seasonal dark streaks called "Recurrent Slope Lines" (RSL), which a November 2017 report interprets as granular flows rather than darkening it due to of the flow of water. The image comes from the HiRISE camera of NASA's March reconnaissance orbiter.

Blue represents the gas of the Orion nebula. This image is a composite of the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank telescope and NASA's Survey Infrared Survey telescope. "We still do not understand in detail how big gas clouds in our galaxy collapse to form new stars," said Rachel Friesen, one of the co-principal investigators of the collaboration. "But ammonia is an excellent tracer of dense gas forming stars."

This is what the Earth and its moon look like since March. The image is a composite of the best image of the Earth and the best moon image, taken on November 20, 2016 by NASA's Mars Orbiter Recognition. The camera of the orbiter takes pictures in three bands of wave length: infrared, red and blue-green. Mars was about 127 million kilometers from Earth when the images were taken.

NASA's Cassini spacecraft took these images of the mysterious jetstream of the hexagon-shaped planet in December 2016. The hexagon was discovered on images taken by the Voyager spacecraft in the early 1980s. It is estimated that it has a diameter wider than two lands.

A dead star emits a greenish glow in this image of the Hubble Space Telescope of the Crab Nebula, located about 6,500 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus. NASA released the image for Halloween 2016 and picked up the theme in its press release. The agency said that "the object in the macabre appearance always has a pulse". In the center of the Crab Nebula is the crushed kernel, or "heart" of an exploded star. The heart rotates 30 times per second and produces a magnetic field that generates 1,000 billion volts, NASA said.

Venus, Low, and Jupiter brilliantly shine above Matthews, NC on Monday, June 29. The apparent close encounter, called conjunction, gave a dazzling spectacle in the summer sky. Although the two planets seem to be close to each other, they are actually millions of miles away.

The frozen moon of Jupiter, Europa, could be the best place in the solar system to search for extraterrestrial life, according to NASA. The moon is about the size of the moon and there is evidence that there is an ocean under its frozen crust that can hold twice as much water as the Earth. NASA's 2016 budget includes a request for $ 30 million for planning a fact-finding mission on Europa. The above image was taken by Galileo Probe on November 25, 1999. It is a mosaic of 12 images that is considered the best image of the Europe side that faces Jupiter.

This nebula, or cloud of gas and dust, is called RCW 34 or Gum 19. The brightest areas you can see are where the gas is heated by young stars. Finally, the gas explodes like champagne after uncorking a bottle. Scientists call this the flow of champagne. This new image of the nebula was captured by the very large telescope of the European Space Organization in Chile. RCW 34 is in the Vela constellation in the southern sky. The name means "sailing sails" in Latin.
