La cupola du department store Le Printemps, 64-70 Boulevard Haussmann, Paris 9e. In 1907-1910, Rene Binet built a second store, taking over the architectural part of Paul Sedille while centering the ensemble on a six-storey octagonal hall under a double dome. The dome, the work of the master glassmaker Briere, is still visible on the sixth floor of the store.

Glaciers under Martian crateres - Buried glaciers on Mars - Computer reconstructed views of three Martian crateres in the Hellas region that house glaciers. The images show the crateres as they appear today with a layer of Martian soil covering the ice with water and, on the right, the glaciers updated according to radar measurements obtained by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter probe (MRO). These glaciers would have a thickness of 250 to 450 meters. Each image covers 20 km wide. This computer graphic image shows three craters in the eastern Hellas region of Mars containing concealed glaciers detected by radar. The images shows how the surface looks today with the ice covered with a layer of Martian soil and what the ice may look like underneath. The image was created using image data from the Context Camera on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) spacecraft combined with results from the SHARAD radar sounder on MRO and HRSC digital elevation map from the Mars Express spacecraft. The color of the Martian surface and ice was estimated from MRO HiRise color images of other Martian craters and the polar ice caps. The buried ice in these craters as measured by SHARAD is ~ 250 meter thick on the upper crater and ~ 300 and 450 meters on the middle and lower levels respectively. Each image is 20 km (12.8 mi.) across and extends to 50 km (32 mi) in the distance. Recent measurements from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter SHARAD radar sounder have detected large amounts of water ice in such deposits over widespread areas, arguing for the flow of glacial - like structures on Mars in the relatively recent geologic past. This suggests that snow and ice accumulated on higher topography, flowed downhill and is now protected from sublimation by a layer of rock debris and dust. Furrows and ridges on the surface were caused by deforming ice

Sol de Mars seen by the Phoenix probe - Mars: Phoenix landing site - Image obtained by the Phoenix probe shortly after its successful landing on the Mars surface on May 25, 2008. The probe landed on a vast plain north of the planet in the Vastitas Borealis region. This image, one of the first captured by Nasa's Phoenix Mars Lander, shows the vast plains of the northern polar region of Mars. The flat landscape is strewn with tiny pebbles and shows polygonal cracking, a pattern seen widely in Martian high latitudes and also observed in permafrost terrains on Earth. The polygonal cracking is believed to have resulted from seasonal freezing and thawing of surface ice. Phoenix touched down on the Red Planet at 4:53 p.m. Pacific Time (7:53 p.m. Eastern Time), May 25, 2008, in an arctic region called Vastitas Borealis, at 68 degrees north latitude, 234 degrees east longitude. This is an approximate - color image taken shortly after landing by the spacecraft's Surface Stereo Imager, inferred from two color filters, a violet, 450 - nanometer filter and an infrared, 750 - nanometer filter

Star cluster IC 1590 in NGC 281 (Cassiopee) - Open cluster and Bok globules in NGC 281 - View of a detail in the center of the nebula NGC 281 in Cassiopee. The brightest stars of the open cluster IC 1590 are visible, accompanied by Bok's blood cells, dark interstellar clouds consisting of gas and dust that absorb light. Image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Astronomers have used the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to study the young open star cluster IC 1590, which is found within the star formation region NGC 281 - - nicknamed the Pacman Nebula due to its resemblance to the famous arcade game character. This image only shows the central part of the nebula, where the brightest stars at the core of the cluster are found, with part of the Pacman's hungry mouth visible as the dark region below. But Pacman isn't gobbling up these stars. Instead, the nebula's gas and dust are being used as raw ingredients to make new stars. However, the stars in IC 1590 are still plotting their escape from the Pacman Nebula, as open clusters are only loosely bound together and the grouping will eventually disperse within a few tens of millions of years. IC 1590 lies about ten thousand light - years from Earth in the constellation of Cassiopeia (The Queen). Through small telescopes the core of the cluster that appears at the top of this picture shows up as a triple star, but the nebula that surrounds it is much fainter and very hard to see

Nebula California (NGC 1499) in Persee - The California Nebula (NGC 1499) in Perseus - NGC 1499 is a very large emission nebula located 1140 years - light from Earth in the constellation Persee. Image obtained by the Oschin telescope of Mount Palomar through several filters and composed. The north is at top. This is a huge emission nebula in Perseus constellation. It is a cloud of gas, mainly hydrogen, which glows due to the ionization by radiation from a hot nearby star. The California Nebula is made glowing by the 4th magnitude star Menkib (Xi Persei, the bright blue star in center right). The nebula is named because recall the shape of the US state when viewed from the west. This image is based on data acquired by the Oschin Telescope at the Mount Palomar Observatory

Nebula California (NGC 1499) in Persee - The California Nebula (NGC 1499) in Perseus - NGC 1499 is a very large emission nebula located 1140 years - light from Earth in the constellation Persee. Image obtained by the Oschin telescope of Mount Palomar through several filters and composed. The north is at top. This is a huge emission nebula in Perseus constellation. It is a cloud of gas, mainly hydrogen, which glows due to the ionization by radiation from a hot nearby star. The California Nebula is made glowing by the 4th magnitude star Menkib (Xi Persei, the bright blue star in center right). The nebula is named because recall the shape of the US state when viewed from the west. This image is based on data acquired by the Oschin Telescope at the Mount Palomar Observatory

Hubble Nebula (NGC 2261) in Unicorn - NGC 2261, Hubble's variable nebula - The Hubble Nebula is a weak nebulosite that surrounds the star R Monocerotis (R Mon), the bright star at the bottom of the nebula. The mass of the star R Mon is about 10 times that of the sun. It is approximately 2600 light years away and is only 300,000 years old. Image obtained by Siding Spring's 3.9m telescope. Hubble's variable nebula is in Monoceros and was the first object to be photographed with the famous 200 inch Hale Telescope at Palomar in 1948. This curious object is a reflection nebula in which is embedded the star R Monocerotis. Variations in the appearance of the nebula were noted by the American astronomer Edwin Hubble in 1916. They are probably caused by opaque clouds of dust passing between the hidden star and the outskirts of the nebula we see, the moving shadows changing the apparent form of the glowing dust in an irregular way. This picture was made from three AAT plates taken over several years and subtle colour changes around the edge of the nebula are indications of the variability

Nebula NGC 3372 in the Carene in false colours - NGC 3372 Carina nebula - Image of the nebula of the Carene (NGC 3372), a very vast region of star formation, obtained by combining light through 3 different filters that highlight oxygen in blue, hydrogen in green, and sulfur in red. The colors also represent different gas temperatures, warm, blue, colder in red. The bright star in the center of the image is Eta Carinae, a super massive star. Image obtained with the Curtis - Schmidt telescope of the Cerro Tololo Observatory. This image shows a giant star - forming region in the southern sky known as the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372), combining the light from 3 different filters tracing emission from oxygen (blue), hydrogen (green), and sulphur (red). The color is also representative of the temperature in the ionized gas: blue is relatively hot and red is cooler. The Carina Nebula is a good example of how very massive stars rip apart the molecular clouds that give birth to them. The bright star near the center of the image is Eta Carinae, which is one of the most massive and luminous stars known. This picture is a composite of several exposures made with the Curtis - Schmidt telescope at the Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory
