Spiral galaxy NGC 1313 in the Reticule - The starburst galaxy NGC 1313 - NGC 1313 is a galaxy located about 15 million years ago - light. Intense star formations are observed. In visible light, NGC 1313 seems dominated by scattered patches of star formation which give our picture a rather ragged appearance. The clouds of bluish stars seem to have burst into existence at random, without the normal trigger gravitational interaction or even a distinct spiral to prompt them. Star formation seems to have occurred in a series of irregular, self-sustaining bursts. However, a very deep image shows that the outer parts of galaxy are also very disturbed. Seen with a radio telescope, the galaxy is rich in hydrogen, the raw material of stars, and the gas circulates around the centre of the galaxy in a well ordered way, apparently hardly affected by the starburst activity or other irregularities that so colour our visual impression of this unusual galaxy. NGC 1313 is at a distance of about 15 million light years, close enough for some of its brightest stars to be seen as individuals

Elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 in the Furnace - Giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 - By studying the clusters of stars and clouds of dust visible in this photo taken by the Hubble space telescope in March 2003, it is believed that the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316 is the result of a collision of two spiral galaxies that occurred some billions of years ago. This galaxy resides about 75 million light years ago in the cluster of galaxies of the Furnace. Also called Fornax A, it is one of the strongest radio sources in the sky. This image made from data obtained with the NASA Hubble Space Telescope reveals the dust lanes and star clusters of this giant galaxy that give evidence that it was formed from a past merger of two gas - rich galaxies. NGC 1316 is on the outskirts of a nearby cluster of galaxies in the southern constellation of Fornax, at a distance of about 75 million light - years. It is one of the brightest ellipticals in the Fornax galaxy cluster. NGC 1316, also known as Fornax A, is one of the strongest and largest radio sources in the sky, with radio lobes extending over several degrees of sky (well off the Hubble image)

Uranus and three satellites seen by Voyager 2 - Image obtained by the Voyager 2 probe in January 1986 showing the planet Uranus accompanied by the satellites Ariel (top right), Miranda (closest to the planet) and Umbriel (bottom left). This Voyager photograph of Uranus taken in january 1986 is a composite of for images taken by the narrow angle camera. At this range, clouds and other features in the atmosphere as small as 1,370 km. could be detected by Voyager 2. Yet, no such features are visible. This view is toward the illuminated south pole of Uranus. The predominant blue color is the result of atmospheric methane, which absorbs the red wavelengths from incoming sunlight. The spot at the upper left edge of the planet's disk reulted from the removal of a network mark used in making measurments on the photograph. Three of Uranus' five known satellites are visible; Miranda (at far right, closest to the planet), Ariel (next out, at top), and Umbriel (lower left). Titania and Oberon are now outside the narrow angle camera's field of view when it centered on the planet. This color composite was made from images taken through blue, green, orange, and clear filters

Uranus and its satellite Puck - Illustration - Uranus and Puck - Illustration - Planet Uranus with its Puck satellite in the foreground. On the right, closer to the planet, is the Belinda satellite. Even closer to Uranus, on the left, the Portia satellite. On Uranus, a giant storm is represented. This is how Uranus and its tiny satellite Puck might look from a position in space about a thousand miles above and beyond Puck itself. With a diameter of about 100 miles, Puck is the largest and outermost of the ten known “” inner”” satellites that orbit Uranus within a radius of 51 thousand miles. Further in toward Uranus on the right is Belinda, a satellite that is about 40 miles in diameter. Even closer to Uranus on the far left is the 60 - mile - diameter satellite Portia. On Uranus itself can be seen a giant, cyclonic storm that's almost as big as the Earth
