Main gear touchdown was at 2:34:51 a.m. EDT, followed by nose gear touchdown at 2:35:04 a.m., and wheelstop at 2:35:36 a.m. On board are STS - 134 Commander Mark Kelly, Pilot Greg H. Johnson, and Mission Specialists Mike Fincke, Drew Feustel, Greg Chamitoff and the European Space Agency's Roberto Vittori. STS-134 delivered the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer - 2 (AMS) and the Express Logistics Carrier - 3 (ELC-3) to the International Space Station. AMS will help researchers understand the origin of the universe and search for evidence of dark matter, strange matter and antimatter from the station.

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

Exoplanete SWEEPS-10: SWEEPS-10 is an exoplanet located towards the galactic center. This hot jupiter is one of the hottest exoplanets discovered to date with a temperature of 1650 degres. SWEEPS-10 is an extrasolar planet orbiting the star SWEPS J175902.00 291323.7 located in the Galactic bulge at a distance of approximately 22,000 light years from Earth. It completes an orbit of its star in just 10 hours, and is categorized as an ultra-short period planet (USPP). Located only 1.2 million kilometers from its star, the planet is among the hottest ever detected; its estimated temperature is approximately 1,650 degrees Celsius. This planet must be at least 1.6 times the mass of Jupiter. This illustration presents a purely speculative view of what such a “” hot Jupiter”” might look like. It could have a powerful magnetic field that traps charged particles from the star. These particles create glowing auroral rings around the planet's magnetic poles

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 thei

Martian panorama taken by the rover Opportunity - Martian panorama seen from rover Opportunity - 360 degres panorama obtained by the rover Opportunity from the position where the rover remained for five weeks in November and December 2008. The 276 images that make up this panorama were taken from November 21 to 24, 2008. In this image the rover, whose top of its antenna can be seen in the center of the image, is located about 1 km southwest of the Victoria crater. Opportunity returned to Endeavour crater on December 23, 2008. The Rover Opportunity landed on Mars in the Meridiani Planum region on January 25, 2004. This 360 - degree panorama shows the vista from the location where Nasa's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity spent five weeks in November and December 2008 while the sun was almost directly in between Mars and Earth, limiting communications.

Barree spiral galaxy NGC 4319 and Markarian quasar 205 - Galaxy NGC 4319 and quasar Markarian 205 - The barree spiral galaxy NGC 4319, in the center, is 80 million years - light in the constellation of the Dragon. The Markarian 205 quasar, on the top right, is 14 times further at about 1 billion light years. These two objects are therefore not interacting; on the other hand, the galaxy NGC 4319 is probably interacting with the galaxy NGC 4291, out of field, as the weak arm at the bottom left allows. Quasars are galaxies that create an extremely bright core. Image made by the Hubble Space Telescope in 2002. In this NASA Hubble Space Telescope image, an odd celestial duo, the spiral galaxy NGC 4319 (center) and a quasar called Markarian 205 (upper right), appear to be neighbors. In reality, the two objects don't even live in the same city. NGC 4319 is 80 million light - years from Earth. Markarian 205 (Mrk 205) is more than 14 times farther away, residing 1 billion light - years from Ear

Crab Pulsar in Nebula M1 - The Crab pulsar: This false-colored image obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope shows the central region of the Crab Nebula or resides its pulsar. The pulsar is visible in the center of the image. It is a very dense neutron star from the explosion of a massive supernova star. This star quickly rotates on itself developing a powerful magnetic field, emitting beams of light and radio waves. M1 is located about 6000 light-years in the constellation Taurus.. In 1054 AD, during the Song dynasty, Chinese astronomers spotted a bright new star in the night sky. This newcomer turned out to be a violent explosion within the Milky Way, caused by the spectacular death of a star some 1600 light-years away. This explosion created one of the most well-studied and beautiful objects in the night sky - the Crab Nebula. The beautiful result of this cataclysmic Type II supernova is shown here, imaged by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys. Unlike m

This phenomene occurs every 15 years. On the top image, the largest satellite, Titan, projects its shadow on the planet and three satellites are visible on the left: Mimas and its shadow are discernable on Saturn's left blade, on the left, above the rings, Dione is clearly visible, and on the left, the Enceladus satellite. The image in the center shows the satellites Enceladus and Dione that cast their shadow on the west (left) side of Saturn, Titan in the upper right, and Mimas on the eastern edge of Saturn.

Image obtained through 3 different filters that highlight oxygen (blue), hydrogen (green), and sulfur (red). The bright star in the center of the image is Eta Carinae, a super massive star. The Carina Nebula (also known as the Great Nebula in Carina, the Eta Carinae Nebula, or NGC 3372) is a large bright nebula that surrounds several open clusters of stars. Eta Carinae and HD 93129A, two of the most massive and luminous stars in our Milky Way galaxy, are among them.

The cluster of stars Pismis 24 in the Scorpio - Pismis 24 star cluster in Scorpius - This image obtained by the Hubble space telescope shows the cluster of young stars Pismis 24, located about 8000 years - light in the nebula NGC 6357 of the Scorpio. This cluster houses a star that was thought to be the most massive star in our galaxy, between 200 and 300 solar masses (the brightest star in the top center of the image). The measurements obtained by the Hubble telescope showed that this star, Pismis 24 - 1, was actually a double star and that its mass was actually only about 100 solar masses. The small open star cluster Pismis 24 lies in the core of the large emission nebula NGC 6357 in Scorpius, about 8,000 light - years away from Earth. Some of the stars in this cluster are extremely massive and emit intense ultraviolet radiation. The brightest object in the picture is designated Pismis 24 - 1.

At the center of this nebula, the open cluster of R136 stars, clusters of young, hot and massive stars, aged just 5 million years. Mosaic of 5 images obtained by the Hubble space telescope. Vast Star - Forming Region 30 Doradus Nasa's Hubble Space Telescope has snapped a panoramic portrait of a vast, sculpted landscape of gas and dust where thousands of stars are being born. This fertile star - forming region, called the 30 Doradus Nebula, has a sparkling stellar centerpiece: the most spectacular cluster of massive stars in our cosmic neighborhood of about 25 galaxies. The mosaic picture shows that ultraviolet radiation and high - speed material unleashed by the stars in the cluster, called R136, are weaving a tapestry of creation and destruct
