PIX4630731: Cratere Manicouagan - Quebec - March 2001 - The Manicouagan Impact Crater reservoir in Quebec, Canada - Cratere d'impact Manicouagan, Quebec, seen from the International Space Station in March 2001. This 100-kilometre crater formed 212 million years ago, following the fall of an asteroid on Earth. The reservoir, a large annular lake, marks the site of an impact crater 60 miles (100 kilometers) wide. Formed almost 212 million years ago when a large meteorite hit Earth, the crater has been worn down by many advances and retreats of glaciers and other processes of erosion. Seen here from the International Space Station (ISS) in March 200 / Bridgeman Images

PIX4629924: Size comparison: Earth, Moon and Galilean satellites - Jupiter's four largest satellites and Earth and the Moon compared - Jupiter's four largest satellites, called Galilean satellites, compared to Earth and Moon. At the top, from left to right, in order of their distance to the planet Jupiter, we find Io, Europe, Ganymede and Callisto. Ganymede is the largest satellite in the solar system. Jupiter's four largest satellites, also known as the “” Galilean”” satellites since they were first observed by the Italian astronomer Galileo over 400 years ago, are worlds in their own right. Top row, left to right, in order from their distances from Jupiter, are: Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto Io is the most volcanic world in the Solar System, resurfacing itself continually with extremely hot and massive eruptions that spew material over 200 miles into space. Europa is about the same size as Earth's Moon, however unlike the Moon which is made up mostly of dry silicate materials, Europa is believed to be composed primarily of water ice, and may even contain a vast ocean of liquid salt water beneath its crust. For this reason, Europa is now emerging as one of the most viable candidates for hosting extraterrestrial life. Ganymede and Callisto are each larger than the planet Mercury, while Ganymede is the largest of all satellites in the Solar System. Io, Europa, and Ganymede are locked in a gravitational resonance where for every orbit Ganymede completes, Europa completes two orbits and Io completes four / Bridgeman Images

PIX4642742: A satellite is directed to a cemetery orbit - Reorbiting a spacecraft into a graveyard orbit - Artist's view of a satellite in geostationary orbit at the end of the mission directs to a cemetery orbit. In order to prevent possible collisions, the satellite must be placed 300 km above its initial orbit. In order to eliminate collision risk, GEO satellites should be moved out of the geostationary ring at the end of their mission. It is recommended that their orbit should be raised by about 300 km, which is considered a safe distance to avoid future interference with active GEO spacecraft / Bridgeman Images
PIX4642769: Space Debris: Meteosat type satellite - Space debris: Meteosat satellite - Artist's view of a Meteosat satellite when it is put into orbit. As with many satellites, orbit operations cause new space debris (ejection of covers, bolts...); in view of the dangerous increase in space debris, it is imperative to design cleaner satellites today (here a cover remains attached to the satellite). A measure against space debris is minimizing the number of objects released during spacecraft operations. Typical “” mission - related objects”” (MRO) include adapters used between two satellites in a dual launch, telescope covers, bolts, cast off yo - yo spinners, etc. Spacecraft designers and operators must design missions so that objects stay attached to the spacecraft and do not become additional space debris / Bridgeman Images
