PIX4635695: South Hemisphere - This is a long exposure (about an hour) made with an ordinary camera and colour film. It shows a crowded and dusty stretch of the southern Milky Way. The Galactic plane runs roughly NE to SW across the middle of the picture, which is about 40 degrees across. At the centre-left lies the direction of the nucleus of our Galaxy, unseen behind dense clouds of dust: The Lactee Way in the Scorpion - Southern Milky Way / Bridgeman Images

Hurricanes Katia, Irma, and Jose seen by satellite 09/2017 - Hurricanes Katia, Irma, and Jose 09/2017: Hurricanes Katia, Irma, and Jose seen by the Suomi NPP satellite on September 8, 2017. The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIS) on the Suomi NPP satellite captured the data for a mosaic of Katia, Irma, and Jose as they appeared in the early hours of September 8, 2017. The images were acquired by the VIIRS “” day-night band,””” which detects light signals in a range of wavelengths from green to near-infrared, and uses filtering techniques to observe signals such as city lights, auroras, wildfires, and reflected moonlight. In this case, the clouds were lit by the nearly full Moon. The image is a composite, showing cloud imagery combined with data on city lights

Evolution of the universe: from the dark age to galaxies - In this diagram, the upper left represents the cosmic Dark Age, when the universe was so hot that atoms could not form and photons could not travel freely. The red area represents the de-ionization era, when the universe became transparent. The Cosmic Background Radiation comes from this time
