ITR4583394: La residence Latitude aux Arcs 1800 (Savoie).Architect Atelier d'architecture en montagne, 1972. The resort of Les Arcs was awarded the Heritage of the 20th century in 2006. Les Arcs are the full-scale illustration of the designs of the architect and designer Charlotte Perriand who coordinated all the teams of architects, engineers and graphic designers with the collaboration of Roger Godino, founder and promoter of the resort in 1968., Perriand, Charlotte (1903-99) / Bridgeman Images

PIX4609177: Core of the spiral galaxy NGC 300 in the Sculptor - Nucleus of galaxy NGC 300 in Sculptor - Located about 7 million years ago - light from Earth, the spiral galaxy NGC 300 belongs to the Sculptor's group. This photo made by the Hubble Space Telescope in 2006 shows the central part of the galaxy where a brilliant cluster of stars appears near the core of the galaxy. NGC 300 resides 7 million light - years from Earth. In this image, Hubble space telescope resolves a dense swarm of stars, patches of dust, and a bright central star cluster. This cluster lies at the very nucleus of the galaxy. Similar clusters are thought to be related to the formation of supermassive black holes. NGC 300 is part of a detailed survey called the ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury program (ANGST). In this census Hubble observed roughly 14 million stars in 69 galaxies / Bridgeman Images
PIX4609074: Stars in the spiral galaxy NGC 253 - Stars in galaxy NGC 253 - NGC 253 is the brightest galaxy of the Sculptor's group, group of galaxies closest to the Local Group. It is about 13 million light years away. Here, the Hubble space telescope photographed the different star populations of this galaxy. A close - up view from Hubble space telescope shows that NGC 253 is ablaze with the light from thousands of young, blue stars. The spiral galaxy is undergoing intense star training. This image, taken with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys, reveals colors and differing intensities of individual stars as well dark filaments of dust and gas interstellar dust intersperced among the stars. NGC 253 is the dominant galaxy in the Sculptor Group of galaxies and resides about 13 million light - years from Earth. This galaxy is part of a detailed survey called the ACS Nearby Galaxy Survey Treasury program (ANGST). The natural - color images were constructed using Hubble observations taken in infrared, visible, and blue light. Data from the Cerro Tololo Inter - American Observatory in Chile were used to fill in small gaps in the Hubble image of NGC 253 / Bridgeman Images
PIX4609158: Spiral galaxy NGC 300 in the Sculptor - Galaxy NGC 300 in Sculptor - Located about 7 million years ago - light from Earth, the spiral galaxy NGC 300 belongs to the Sculptor's group. It appears to us as a great object in the sky since its apparent diameter is almost that of the full moon. This photo was obtained by the MPG/ESO telesope of 2.2 - m in La Silla in Chile in 2000. Located some 7 million light - years away, the spiral galaxy NGC 300 is a beautiful representative of its class, a Milky - Way - like member of the prominent Sculptor group of galaxies in the southern constellation of that name. NGC 300 is a big object in the sky - being so close, it extends over an angle of almost 25 arcmin, only slightly less than the size of the full moon. It is also relative bright, even a small pair of binoculars will unveil this magnificent spiral galaxy as a hazy glowing patch on a dark sky background. The comparatively small distance of NGC 300 and its face - on orientation provide astronomers with a wonderful opportunity to study in great detail its structure as well as its various stellar populations and interstellar medium. This image was obtained with the Wide - Field Imager (WFI) on the MPG/ESO 2.2 - m telescope at the La Silla Observatory in 2000 / Bridgeman Images

PIX4605942: Juno Probe - Artist's View - Juno Artist's Rendering - Artist's View of Juno Probe in orbit around Jupiter. Launch in 2011, the Juno probe will reach Jupiter in 2016. Launching from Earth in 2011, the Juno spacecraft will arrive at Jupiter in 2016 to study the giant planet from an elliptical, polar orbit. Juno will repeatedly dive between the planet and its intense belts of charged particle radiation, coming only 5,000 kilometers (about 3,000 miles) from the cloud tops at closest approach. Juno's primary goal is to improve our understanding of Jupiter's formation and evolution. The spacecraft will spend a year investigating the planet's origins, interior structure, deep atmosphere and magnetosphere. Juno's study of Jupiter will help us to understand the history of our own solar system and provide new insight into how planetary systems form and develop in our galaxy and beyond / Bridgeman Images

Launched in 1996, the probe could not leave Earth orbit and disintegrate. Artwork showing a March 96 surface station. Launched in 1996, a rocket failure happened and the probe was desintegrated in the Earth atmosphere / Bridgeman Images
