Star cluster M46 and planetary nebula NGC 2438 in the stern Open cluster M46 with Planetary Nebula NGC 2438 in Puppis - M46 (NGC 2437) is a cluster of stars aged 5400 years - light. It contains about 500 stars, 150 of which are brilliant. It is about 300 million years old. The planetary nebula NGC 2438 does not appear to belong to this cluster, and must be closer although its distance is unknown. M46 (NGC 2437) is at a distance of about 5,400 light - years away from Earth with an estimated age of about 300 million years. It contains about 500 stars of which 150 are bright. Planetary nebula NGC 2438 (middle bottom) doesn't seem to belong to the cluster

Open cluster NGC 3293 in Carene - Open star cluster NGC 3293 in Carina - Star cluster located in the constellation Carene about 8500 years ago - light from Earth. Unlike the Sun, many stars are found in brilliant clusters such as NGC 3293 where they spend their lives. At birth, which should have been at much the same time for all the stars in NGC 3293, the most massive stars are hot and very luminous and therefore appear as the brightest blue stars. With time they deplete their supplies of nuclear fuel, hydrogen. This evolutionary process involves cooling, so that the stars become redder, and would ordinarily disappear from view, but they also swell to gigantic proportions and so remain visible. The bright orange star in NGC 3293 is the member of the cluster which has aged fastest. This cluster is in the constellation of Carina at a distance of about 8500 light years

Huygens probe en route to Titan - The Huygens probe entering Titan's atmosphere - Artist's view of the European Huygens probe above Titan. Huygens landed on the Titan satellite on 14 January 2005. The Cassini-Huygens probe was launched on 15 October 1997 and has been placed in orbit around Saturn since 1 July 2004. This artist's conception of the Cassini orbiter shows the Huygens probe separating to enter Titan's atmosphere. After separation, the probe drifts for about three weeks until reaching its destination. Huygens landed on Titan surface on January 14, 2005

LRO Probe - Artist View - LRO - Artist view - Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) is a space probe of NASA that will be put into orbit around the Moon in order to map it and identify potential landing sites for sending a human crew around 2020. LRO is expected to be launched in June 2009 with LCROSS (Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite). Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) in Moon orbit. LRO objectives are to find safe landing sites, locate potential resources, characterize the radiation environment, and demonstrate new technology to prepare future human exploration of the Moon. It should be launched in June 2009 with LCROSS (Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite) payload aboard an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida
