PIX4618320: Around the Tarantula Nebula - Around the Tarantula nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud - The Tarantula Nebula, NGC 2070, is a vast star-forming region located north of the Great Magellan Cloud galaxy in the southern hemisphere about 170,000 years - light from Earth. Image obtained with the 1.2m Schmidt UK Telescope from Siding Spring. Known as the Tarantula Nebula for its spidery appearance, the 30 Doradus complex is a monstrous stellar factory. It is the largest emission nebula in the sky, and can be seen far down in the southern sky at a distance of about 170,000 light - years, in the southern constellation Dorado. It is part of one of the Milky Way's neighbouring galaxies, the Large Magellanic Cloud. The Tarantula Nebula contains some of the most massive stars known / Bridgeman Images

PIX4620553: Nebula NGC 7023 in Cephee - Iris Nebula in Cepheus - The nebula of the Iris (NGC 7023) is a reflexion nebula illuminated by the star HD 200775. Infrared observations indicate that this nebula contains PAH (aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons), molecules composed of carbon atoms and hydrogen. NGC 7023 (The Iris Nebula) is located 1400 Light Years away. The bright star HD 200775 shining through the nebula NGC 7023 is a 10 solar mass star centrally imbedded in a region surrounded by ambient molecular cloud material. Infrared observations indicate that this nebula may contain complex carbon molecules known as PaHS / Bridgeman Images

TEC4598161: Pont des Arts Pont des Arts, Paris 6th arrondissement, reconstruction in 1981 by Louis Arretche. The Passerelle des Arts, the first iron bridge in Paris, had the mission of joining the Institut de France and the Louvre, which was then called the Palais des Arts. Reserved for pawns, it was built from 1801 to 1804. It initially consisted of nine arches. Following numerous river accidents, its reconstruction was decided in 1981 but two arches were removed to line them up on the Pont Neuf. / Bridgeman Images

The Andromede mission took place from 21 to 31 October 2001 on board the ISS (the International Space Station). Claudie Haignere was the first European woman to work aboard the ISS. Date of this shot: Sunday, October 21, 2001 at 10:00 am local time. ESA astronaut Claudie Haignere, from France, is strapped into a launch seat and undergoes a final pressure test of her Sokol pressure suit prior to being transferred to the launch pad and board the Soyuz TM - 33 for launch of the “Andromede” mission to the International Space Station on October 21, 2001 / Bridgeman Images

PIX4618685: Nebula of the cone NGC 2264 and S star Monocerotis - NGC 2264 and S Monocerotis - Region H II located about 2600 years - light from Earth. The bright star is S Monocerotis, a star of magnitude 4.7. Image obtained by Siding Spring's 3.9m telescope. The region around the 4.7 magnitude star S Mon is a fascinating mixture of red fluorescent hydrogen and dark, obscuring dust lanes. Some dust patches are close enough to bright stars to reflect light from them; these appear blue for the same reason that the day - time sky is blue - because some of the interstellar particles preferentially scatter blue light. Some of the wispy tendrils of nebulosity are Herbig - Haro objects, jets of matter ejected from newly - formed stars still hidden within the nebula. About 250 stars have been recognised as members of NGC 2264 which is at a distance of about 2700 light years / Bridgeman Images
