Artist's view of the meeting Apollo - Soyuz - Apollo Soyuz appointment. Artwork - Artist's view of Apollo and Soyuz during mooring. This artist's concept depicts the Apollo - Soyuz Test Project (ASTP), the first international docking of the U.S. ' s Apollo spacecraft and the U.S.S.R. ' s Soyuz spacecraft in space. The Soyuz spacecraft, with Cosmonauts Alexei Leonov and Valeri Kubasov aboard, was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome near Tyuratam in the Kazakh, Soviet Socialist Republic, at 8:20 a.m. (EDT) on July 15, 1975. The Apollo spacecraft, with Astronauts Thomas Stafford, Vance Brand, and Donald Slayton aboard, was launched from Launch Complex 39B, Kennedy Space Center, Florida, at 3:50 p.m. (EDT) on July 15, 1975. The Primary objectives of the ASTP were achieved. They performed spacecraft rendezvous, docking and undocking, conducted intervehicular crew transfer, and demonstrated the interaction of U.S. and U.S.S.R. control centers and spacecraft crews.

Permanent station between Mars and Earth - Artist view - Mars lander departs cycler - Artist view - A landing ship (top left) leaves the Mars Cycler to land on the red planet. Mars Cycler is a space station placed in orbit between Mars and Earth whose trajectory would alternate between Mars and Earth. Once positioned in orbit, this gravitational assistance vessel would use very little fuel. This project would make a permanent link between the two planets. A manned Mars lander/return vehicle, upper left, disembarks from a Mars cycler for the surface of Mars. A Mars cycler is a permanently orbiting vehicle with a path that alternately brings it near Earth and Mars. Once a cycler has been accelerated into orbit it continues on its own momentum, going back and forth between the two planets, only requiring propellant for occasional course adjustments. A one-way trip between Earth and Mars involves six to eight months of space travel, therefore a large and well-equipped Mars cycler would off

An automatic cargo ship en route to Mars - Unmanned cargo capsule departs Mars cycler - An automatic cargo ship separates from the Mars Cycler to bring equipment to Mars. Mars Cycler is a space station placed in orbit between Mars and Earth whose trajectory would alternate between Mars and Earth. Once positioned in orbit, this gravitational assistance vessel would use very little fuel. This project would make a permanent link between the two planets. With small bursts from its reaction control thrusters, an automated cargo capsule begins its one-way journey from a Mars cycler to the surface of Mars. A Mars cycler is a permanently orbiting vehicle with a path that alternately brings it near Earth and Mars. Once a cycler has been accelerated into orbit it continues on its own momentum, going back and forth between the two planets, only requiring propellant for occasional course adjustments.

A 3-man Soyuz TMA-M prepares to dock with a 6-man Orion class Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV, AKA Deep Space Vehicle) in low Earth orbit. Given that Russian and Western spacecraft employ different docking and airlock solutions, the CEV hosts an adapter module that makes the two spacecraft compatible and includes a hatch for Extra-vehicular activity (EVA) and science instrumentation. Such a union may be suitable for deep space missions to gravitational-stable Lagrangian points and even a near-earth object (NEO)/asteroid

The Lactee Way - Milky Way and Atacama Andes - The Lactee Way over the Atacama Desert. Visible on the horizon near the middle of the image the Chajnantor (5639m) and its platform or the ALMA radio telescope is currently under construction. Mosaic with 3 images placed 1 minute each. June 2008. The Milky Way is rising majestically above the Chilean Atacama Andes in the San Pedro de Atacama region. Most of the peaks visible in the landscape background have altitudes above 5000m and even 6000m for some of them. Almost in the middle of the image are the Chajnantor mountain (5639 m) and plateau (5300 m) where the ALMA radio telescope project is being built. Note that is image is a one-shot image (in fact a mosaique made of 3 one-shot images), there is no background/foreground composition made here, or composition of pictures made with different exposure times etc... instead, the author choose the date and time at which the picture was taken in order to have the landscape and observer lit up

Southern Aurora observed from space station - Aurora Australis seen from space - Southern Aurora observed from the International Space Station (ISS) on 29 May 2010. Aurora australis seen from the International Space Station (ISS) on May 29, 2010. The ISS was located over the Southern Indian Ocean at an altitude of 350 km, with the astronaut observer most likely looking towards Antarctica (not visible) and the South Pole. The aurora has a sinuous ribbon shape that separates into discrete spots near the lower right corner of the image. While the dominant coloration of the aurora is green, there are faint suggestions of red photon emission as well (light fuscia tones at image center left). Dense cloud cover is dimly visible below the aurora. The curvature of the Earth's horizon, or limb, is clearly visible as is the faint blue line of the upper atmosphere directly above at image top center. Several stars appear as bright pinpoints against the blackness of space at image top right

Star Formation in the DR21 Region - Star Formation in the DR21 Region - This star formation region is about 6200 years old - light. Hidden in light visible by interstellar dust, this region rises in infrared light. Gas filaments appear in red; they emphasize the presence of aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons (PAH); they are organic molecules composed of carbon atoms and hydrogen that could be the germs on which the first bricks of life appeared. Composite image in different wavelengths obtained by the Spitzer space telescope; in blue the visible light, in yellow and red the infrared light. Hidden behind a shroud of dust in the constellation Cygnus is a stellar nursery called DR21, which is giving birth to some of the most massive stars in our galaxy. Visible light images reveal no trace of this interstellar cauldron because of heavy dust obscuration. This image from Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope allow us to peek behind the cosmic veil and pinpoint one of the most massive natal stars yet

This picture is a reproduction taken from a color television transmission made by the color RCA TV camera mounted on the lunar roving vehicle. Noting that they had collected a very significant rock composed of many fragments, Schmitt said, “” A portion of a rock will be sent to a representative agency or museum in each of the countries represented by the young people in Houston today...”” 13 Dec 1972

Chandra Space Telescope - Artist View - Chandra X - Ray Observatory - View of the Chandra Telescope in orbit around Earth. The Chandra space telescope observes the universe in X-ray; it was launched and put into orbit in July 1999. Nasa's Chandra X - ray Observatory as it may appear at about 50,000 miles from the Earth, almost twice as high as Earth - orbiting geosynchronous satellites. Named after the Indian astrophysicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, the Chandra X - ray Observatory is the world's most powerful X - ray telescope, and at a weight of over 5 tons (10 tons including the detachable booster rocket) was the heaviest payload ever delivered into orbit by the Space Shuttle. Chandra was carried into space by Columbia in July 1999. Originally designed for a 5 year mission dedicated to observing distant celestial objects in the X - ray spectrum, Chandra has been observing for over three times that long and is still going strong.
