PIX4587573: Mars near the Full Moon-12/2007 - Full Moon with March-12/2007 - At the end of 2007, the planet Mars was closest to the Earth, it was its opposition, and it shone strong enough to remain visible to the naked eye right next to the dazzling Full Moon. Planet Mars is shining near full Moon on december 24 2007 / Bridgeman Images
PIX4587596: Movement of Mars in the Taurus of August 2007 to April 2008 - Motion of Mars in Taurus from august 2007 to april 2008 - Superposition of photos showing the movement of Mars Planet in the Taurus from August 18, 2007 to March 6, 2008.

PIX4580295: Circumpolar and Shooting Star - Circumpolar and Meteor - Circumpolar and meteor - A shooting star passes near the polar eoile. Photographic pose of 60 minutes obtained in April 1995. By pointing a camera towards the north at night, we can record the paths of stars which never set. They appear to circle the apparent position of the Earth's axis of rotation projected on the sky. On this 1 hour exposure, a shooting star appears near the pole star / Bridgeman Images
PIX4583085: Pulsar of the Crab in the Taurus seen in X and visible - Combined X - Ray and Optical Images of the Crab Nebula A composite image of the Crab Nebula showing the X - ray (blue), and optical (red) images superimposed. The size of the X - ray image is smaller because the higher energy X - ray emitting electrons radiate away their energy more quickly than the lower energy optically emitting electrons as they move / Bridgeman Images
PIX4583110: Remnants of the Crab Supernova (M1) in the Taurus - Polarization - M1, the Crab Nebula, is the rest of a supernova that exploded in July or August 1054. It is located about 7000 light years from Earth in the constellation Taurus. At the heart of this nebula is a pulsar. Image of the nebula in polarized light obtained from photo plates made at the 5m telescope of Mount Palomar / Bridgeman Images
PIX4583119: Visible Crab Nebula - Infrared and X - Visible Crab Nebula - Infrared and X - M1, the Crab Nebula, is the rest of a supernova that exploded in July or August 1054. It is located about 7000 light years from Earth in the constellation Taurus. At the heart of this nebula is a pulsar. To obtain this photo, three spatial observatories combined their observations: the Hubble telescope for the visible part (here in green and dark blue), the Chandra telescope for X-ray data (light blue) and the Spitzer telescope for the infrared image (in red). The pulsar is the bright spot in the center of the image / Bridgeman Images

PIX4583175: Supernova Remnants SNR B0509 - 67.5 - Supernova Remnant SNR B0509 - 67.5 - SNR B0509 - 67.5 (or SNR 0509) is the rest of a star explosion in the galaxy of the Great Magellan Cloud. This 23-year bubble - light of diameter extends at a speed of 18 million km/h. Composite of images obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in 2006 and 2010. This delicate shell, photographed by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, appears to float serenely in the depths of space, but this apparent calm hides an inner turmoil. The gaseous envelope formed as the expanding blast wave and ejected material from a supernova tore through the nearby interstellar medium. Called SNR B0509 - 67.5 (or SNR 0509 for short), the bubble is the visible remnant of a powerful stellar explosion in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a small galaxy about 160,000 light - years from Earth. Ripples in the shell's surface may be caused either by subtle variations in the density of the ambient interstellar gas, or possibly be driven from the interior by fragments from the initial explosion. The bubble - shaped shroud of gas is 23 light - years across and is expanding at more than 18 million km/h. Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys observed the supernova remnant on 28 October 2006 with a filter that isolates light from the glowing hydrogen seen in the expanding shell. These observations were then combined with visible - light images of the surrounding star field that were imaged with Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 on 4 November 2010 / Bridgeman Images
