[Solaris]

On March 3 1979, Voyager 1 captured this view of Europa transiting over Jupiter's great red spot.
The image is composed of a 16-frames mosaic made of 41 individual images (16 oranges filters and 25 violets filters).
I used Gimp for all the processing.

Gazing down at Earth, you see Home. But here I imagined the need for a tangible memory of an Earth walked on, touched - to bridge the emotional as well as physical gulf: a scruffy photograph of some summer cottage scene. It was inspired by the demise of the Mir space station, and perhaps by Charles Duke's photo left on the Moon, vide http://www.history.nasa.gov/alsj/a16/AS16-117-18841.jpg

Within our local group of galaxies and at a distance of only about 6 million light years, NGC 300 is close enough to display plenty of typical galactic
features and detail. In this image H-alpha (red-magenta) and OIII (teal-green) data has been used to help showcase the extensive amount of star
formation going on across the galaxy

The Return to the Dark Sky by Marion Haligowski, on Flickr

This circumpolar star trail image was made of seventy 30 second exposures taken with a Canon T6s and a Canon 8-15 mm f/4L lens. (ISO 3200, 12 mm f/4.0). I took the image in the dark skies of Fowlers Hollow State Park in Central Pennsylvania. The glow from my camp fire can be seen to the right of the photo. It was great to see the Milky Way in its full glory again!

Zodiacal Light & Winter Milkyway

Night landscape before the dawn, today, at the ancient mountain of Istoni. Pantokrator Corfu, 01 Oct 2016.

Somewhere between the limestones and into the Sinkholes of the mountain the stars shines above us while the outer arms of Milky Way shines in the firmament ...

And just before twilight another light makes its appearance in the sky, bright as another galactic arm which crosses the galaxy at the height of the ecliptic. This light is from the asteroid belt which is illuminated by the Sun and shining in the night sky.
