Comparison between the Earth, Ceres and the Moon - Ceres, Earth, & Earth's Moon compared - Comparison at the scale of the size of the Earth, the dwarf planet Ceres and the Moon. Ceres, the most massive object in the asteroid belt, is only 950 km in diameter. While Ceres is the most massive single object in the asteroid belt, it is yet quite small when compared with the Earth and moon

The Formation of the Earth and the Moon - Young Earth and Moon - The young Earth draped with thick clouds is illuminated by lightning and the reddish glow of volcanoes. Still surrounded by the remains of the primitive nebula, it will wait another 500 million years to cool sufisciously, form a solid crust and develop a primitive atmosphere. Top right is the Moon, still covered in molten lava. A young Earth is shrouded in turbulent, roiling clouds, while under the shadow of its night side can be seen flashes of lightning and the ruddy glow of volcanoes and lava fields illuminating the clouds from beneath. The space around the Earth is highlighted by remnants of the nebula from which the Solar System was born. On the upper right is the Earth's Moon whose lava - filled scars from massive impacts are still cooling. 500 million years after its molten birth the Earth's surface would have cooled enough for a solid crust to form, and gases delivered by comets and emissions from within would have contributed to the Earth's first, albeit primitive, atmosphere

Living in a lunar base - Illustration - Living in a lunar base - A young radio astronomer in a base near the southern pole of the Moon receives flowers sent from Earth as a welcome gift. A young radio astronomer stationed near the Moon's South Pole receives a welcome gift from Earth. Amid the techno-clutter of an office where livable real estate is at an extreme premium, this Selenite pauses to smell the flowers. Some day our great grandchildren may participate in the first long-term settlements on the Earth's Moon. Given the extreme hostility of the lunar environment - no atmosphere, no protection from the fierce solar wind or interstellar cosmic rays - such settlements are likely to be relatively small, enclosed environments and almost wholly dependent upon the Earth for sustenance

Exploring the Moon in the 21st Century - Illustration - Lunar exploration in the 21st century - Astronauts are preparing a rover teleguide to drill the surface of the Moon to find exploitable resources. In the background, a permanent habitat allowing astronauts to live several weeks in this hostile environment. Lunar prospectors prepare a remote-controlled rover for exploring and drilling into the regolith in search of exploitable resources. Immediately behind the prospectors is a self-contained habitat with room and resources enough to sustain four people for several weeks. On the left and nearer to the horizon is the landing craft that delivered the four prospectors to the moon's surface, and will later return them to lunar orbit to meet with an orbiting command ship or tug. The habitat is also a lunar lander that delivered itself autonomously prior to the arrival of the prospectors. This century will likely see our return to Earth's Moon

Spaceship Tug and Space Station - Artist's View - Trans-Lunar space tug and the International Space Station - A towing spaceship joins the International Space Station (ISS) to bring material to the Moon. A trans-lunar space tug departs the International Space Station (ISS)* in preparation for retrieving a lunar lander currently in Earth orbit. What might be mistaken for wings are in fact solar voltaic panels for converting sunlight into electricity, just like those that adorn the ISS. Over two hundred miles below is the Atlantic Ocean, the Canary Islands, and the west coast of Saharan Africa. Long clouds of dust can be seen blowing westward off Morocco. If advances in astronautical engineering continue and lunar exploration becomes a regular activity it may become cost-effective to place a dedicated space tug into permanent orbit. Such a craft could serve the same purpose as the Apollo Command Modules did in the 1970s - ferrying astronauts and lunar landers between Earth orbit and lunar orbit - with the exception that this space tug could make the trip multiple times. suggestion only

The command module of Apollo 16 seen from LEM - Apollo 16 Command and Service Modules seen from LM - The command module of Apollo 16, Casper, seen from LEM. 20/04/1972. The Apollo 16 Command and Service Modules (CSM), as seen from the Lunar Module (LM, out of view) above terrain on the lunar farside. The two spacecraft had just undocked. The LM and CSM were out of communication at the time of this photograph's exposure, but shortly acquired the signal as they moved separately to Earth's side of the moon. While astronauts John W. Young, commander; and Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot, descended in the Apollo 16 LM “” Orion”” to explore the Descartes highlands landing site on the moon, astronaut Thomas K. Mattingly II, command module pilot, remained with the CSM “” Casper”” in lunar orbit. 20 April 1972

The hidden face of the Moon and the Earth seen from DSCOVR. 07/2016 - Far side of the Moon with Earth seen from DSCOVR. 07/2016: This image obtained on July 5, 2016, the moon again passed between DSCOVR and the Earth. EPIC snapped these images over a period of about 4 hours. In this set, the far side of the moon, which is never seen from Earth, passes by. In the backdrop, Earth rotates, starting with the Australia and Pacific and gradually revealing Asia and Africa

The sun, which is still below the horizon, lies nearly straight below the moon here, as can be seen by the orientation of the moon's “” horns””, the tips of the crescent. The “” dark”” side of the moon is visible from Earthshine, the sun's light reflected back from the Earth. The thin crescent is visible, seen here just one day before new moon, brilliantly illuminated by the direct sun -: Cinderella Moon - Earthshine
