Une humeur particulière est causée par des images de l'espace proche , qui sont publiées par les astronautes, Roscosmos et la NASA sur leurs pages Instagram. Je continue la tradition et partage avec vous des photos époustouflantes depuis l'espace:






Day 219. The #sun will come out 16 times tomorrow. #GoodNight from @ISS! #YearInSpace #space #spacestation #iss

For 15 years, since Nov. 2, 2000, there has been a continuous human presence on the International Space Station (@ISS) orbiting Earth in space, as NASA astronauts and their international partners work off the Earth, for the Earth. From 1998 to 2011, five different space agencies representing 15 countries assembled the station, the largest structure ever built in space. Since being occupied in 2000, we've conducted more than 1,760 research investigations on the orbiting laboratory and more than 220 people from 17 countries have visited. In this image is NASA astronaut Tracy Caldwell Dyson taking a moment during her space station mission in 2010 to enjoy an unmatched view of home through a window in the Cupola of the International Space Station, the brilliant blue and white part of Earth glowing against the blackness of space.

A milestone of human achievement, people have lived off the planet continuously for 15 years aboard the International Space Station (@ISS). Think about it, a teenager doesn't know a world where humans haven't lived and worked in space. Since Nov. 2, 2000, NASA astronauts and our international partners work off the Earth, for the Earth. From 1998 to 2011, five different space agencies representing 15 countries assembled the station, the largest structure ever built in space. Since being occupied in 2000, we've conducted more than 1,760 research investigations on the orbiting laboratory and more than 220 people from 17 countries have visited.

Whopping Galaxy Cluster Spotted: Astronomers have discovered a giant gathering of galaxies in a very remote part of the universe, thanks to our Spitzer Space Telescope and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). This galaxy cluster, located 8.5 billion light-years away, is the most massive structure yet found at such great distances. Galaxy clusters are gravitationally bound groups of thousands of galaxies, which themselves each contain hundreds of billions of stars. The clusters grow bigger and bigger over time as they acquire new members. The red galaxies at the center of the image make up the heart of the galaxy cluster. This color image is constructed from multi-wavelength observations: Infrared observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope are shown in red; near-infrared and visible light is green and blue; and radio light is purple. In addition to galaxies, clusters also contain a reservoir of hot gas with temperatures in the tens of millions of degrees Celsius/Kelvin.

[Artist Concept] Speed of Solar Wind Stripping Martian Atmosphere: Our Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission has identified the process that appears to have played a key role in the transition of the Martian climate from an early, warm and wet environment that might have supported surface life to the cold, arid planet Mars is today. MAVEN data have enabled researchers to determine the rate at which the Martian atmosphere currently is losing gas to space via stripping by the solar wind. The findings reveal that the erosion of Mars' atmosphere increases significantly during solar storms. This image is an artist's rendering of a solar storm hitting Mars and stripping ions from the planet's upper atmosphere.

Conducting a "cosmic archaeological dig" at the very heart of our Milky Way galaxy, astronomers uncovered the blueprints of our galaxy's early construction phase. Peering deep into the Milky Way's crowded central hub of stars, researchers using our Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered for the first time a population of ancient white dwarfs -- smoldering remnants of once-vibrant stars that inhabited the core. Finding these relics at last can yield clues to how our galaxy was built, long before Earth and our sun formed. This image is a small section of Hubble's view of the dense collection of stars crammed together in the galactic bulge. The region surveyed is located 26,000 light-years away.

The long, shallow grooves lining the surface of Phobos are likely early signs of the structural failure that will ultimately destroy this moon of Mars. Orbiting a mere 3,700 miles (6,000 kilometers) above the surface of Mars, Phobos is closer to its planet than any other moon in the solar system. Mars’ gravity is drawing in Phobos, the larger of its two moons, by about 6.6 feet (2 meters) every hundred years. Scientists expect the moon to be pulled apart in 30 to 50 million years. New modeling indicates that the grooves on Mars’ moon Phobos could be produced by tidal forces – the mutual gravitational pull of the planet and the moon. Initially, scientists had thought the grooves were created by the massive impact that made Stickney crater (lower right).
