The Discovery shuttle en route to its shooting pitch - 04/2005 - Space Shuttle Discovery - 04/2005 - The Discovery shuttle, perched on its mobile platform (crawler) en route to its shooting pitch. April 2005. At Nasa's Kennedy Space Center, Space Shuttle Discovery, atop the Mobile Launcher Platform (MLP), crawls towards Launch Complex 39B. The MLP is moved by the Crawler - Transporter underneath, which stands 20 feet high, 131 feet long and 114 feet wide. It moves on eight tracks, each containing 57 shoes, or cleats, weighing one ton each. Loaded with the Space Shuttle, the Crawler can move at a maximum speed of approximately 1 mile an hour. A leveling system in the Crawler keeps the Shuttle vertical while negotiating the 5 percent grade leading to the top of the launch pad. Launch of Discovery on its Return to Flight mission, STS-114, is targeted for May 15 with a launch window that extends to June 3. During its 12 - day mission, Discovery's seven - person crew will test new hardware and techniques to improve Shuttle safety, as well as deliver supplies to the International Space Station

Astronaut in training - Astronaut training - Astronaut Clayton C. Anderson of the STS-118 mission uses a virtual reality system to repeat the different movements he will have to accomplish in the International Space Station (ISS). Johnson Space Center, Houston, January 2007. Astronaut Clayton C. Anderson (foreground), Expedition 15 flight engineer, and cosmonaut Fyodor N. Yurchikhin, commander representing Russia's Federal Space Agency, use virtual reality hardware in the Space Vehicle Mockup Facility at the Johnson Space Center to rehearse some of their duties on the upcoming mission to the International Space Station. This type of virtual reality training allows the astronauts to wear a helmet and special gloves while looking at computer displays simulating actual movements around the various locations on the station hardware with which they will be working. Anderson will join Expedition 15 as flight engineer after launching to the station aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour on mission STS-118. January 2007

Helix planetary nebula (NGC 7293) in Aquarius by HST - Helice's planetary nebula, located in Aquarius, is one of the closest to Earth (650 years - light) and is also one of the most extended. Its apparent diameter is about half of the full moon. It was obtained from two clicks taken by the ACS panoramic camera of the Hubble Space Telescope and from the 90 cm telescope of Kitt Peak in Arizona. It reveals unseen details of the filamentary structure of the blue and red gas ring that surrounds the starred star (in the centre of the nebula). In the center of the image, the star that expelled its material became a white dwarf

Planetary nebula Helix (NGC 7293) in Aquarius - Planetary nebula Helix (NGC 7293) - This nebula is located 690 years - light from Earth. Image obtained by Siding Spring's 3.9m telescope This faint object is the nearest planetary nebula to the Sun and on deep photographs has a diameter of about half a degree - - the same apparent size as the Sun in the sky. The AAT colour picture shows the brighter parts of the nebula, revealing various ionization levels within the shell of matter ejected from the central star. The greenish middle portion is evidence of excited oxygen atoms, while the outer red is predominantly light from nitrogen and hydrogen. The smallest of the radial blobs inside the red shell are about 150 astronomical units across (150 times the Earth - Sun distance) and they give this beautiful object its alternative name, the Sunflower Nebula. The Helix is about 400 light years away, or about 100 times more distant than the nearest stars

Radiotelescopes ALMA - The Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) - Artist's view of the European network of submilimeter antennas Alma located in the Atacama Desert, Chile. Its construction is due to be completed in 2010. The Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), one of the largest ground - based astronomy projects of the next decade, is a major new facility for world astronomy. ALMA will be comprised of a giant array of 12 - m submillimetre quality antennas, with baselines of several kilometers. An additional, compact array of 7 - m and 12 - m antennas is also foreseen. Construction of ALMA started in 2003 and will be completed in 2010. The ALMA project is an international collaboration between Europe, Japan and North America in cooperation with the Republic of Chile

The nose landing gear touched down at 11:15:30 a.m. and wheel stop was at 11:16:19 a.m. During the mission, Discovery's crew installed the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's large Kibo laboratory and its remote manipulator system leaving a larger space station and one with increased science capabilities / Bridgeman Images

Decolation of the space shuttle Atlantis. 05/2009 - STS - 125 lift - off - Decolation of the space shuttle Atlantis with the crew of the mission STS-125. This 11-day mission aims to maintain the Hubble space telescope. May 11, 2009. Space Shuttle Atlantis and its seven - member STS - 125 crew head towards Earth orbit and rendezvous with Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope. Liftoff was on time at 2:01 p.m. (EDT) on May 11, 2009 from launch pad 39A at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center. Onboard are astronauts Scott Altman, commander; Gregory C. Johnson, pilot: Michael Good, Megan McArthur, John Grunsfeld, Mike Massimino and Andrew Feustel, all mission specialists. Atlantis' 11 - day flight will include five spacewalks to refurbish and upgrade the telescope with state - of - the - art science instruments that will expand Hubble's capabilities and extend its operational lifespan through at least 2014. The payload includes Wide Field Camera 3, fine guidance sensor and the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph

Rhea, satellite of Saturn, seen by Cassini - Saturn's moon Rhea seen by Cassini - Mosaic of images obtained by the Cassini probe in March 2015. Rhea is the second largest satellite in Saturn (1528 km in diameter). After a couple of years in high - inclination orbits that limited its ability to encounter Saturn's moons, Nasa's Cassini spacecraft returned to Saturn's equatorial plane in March 2015.Image taken using clear, green, infrared and ultraviolet spectral filters were combined to create these enhanced color views, which offer an expanded range of the colors visible to human eyes in order to highlight subtle color differences across Rhea's surface. The moon's surface is fairly uniform in natural color.This view at right is centered at 9 degrees north latitude, 254 degrees west longitude. Resolution in this mosaic is 300 meters (984 feet) per pixel. The image was acquired at a distance that ranged from about 36,000 to 32.100 miles (57,900 to 51,700 kilometers) from Rhea

Debris from the Space Shuttle Challenger on Cocoa Beach - A large piece of debris from the Space Shuttle Challenger washes up on Cocoa Beach almost 11 years after Challenger accident. The piece is believed to be part of an elevon or rudder. NASA recovered thousands of pounds of debris from the Atlantic Ocean; about 50 percent of the orbiter remained in the ocean after search operations were suspended. Dec 16 1996

Astronaut training in parabolic flight - Astronauts training in zero G - NASA astronaut candidates train in weightlessness aboard a NASA KC-135 aircraft with astronauts from the Japanese Space Agency (JAXA). October 2004. A number of NASA's 2004 class of astronaut candidates and some JAXA astronauts tumble during one of a series of reduced gravity sessions provided by special parabolas flown by a KC - 135 aircraft over the Gulf of Mexico. Randolph J. (Randy) Bresnik, pilot candidate, and Shannon Walker, mission specialist candidate, are in the foreground. This activity is part of the early training program for candidates, who came aboard the NASA program in spring of this year. October 2004
