Launch of satellite METOP - A - Launch of satellite METOP - A - Artist's view of the European satellite METOP - A put into orbit by a Soyuz - Fregat rocket. Launched on October 19, 2006, it is the first European meteorological satellite in polar orbit; it includes twelve meteorological instruments. Launch of satellite METOP - A by a Soyuz rocket. MetOp is a series of three meteorological operational polar orbiting satellites, the first of which, MetOp - A is the prototype. The instruments on MetOp will produce high - resolution images, vertical temperature and humidity profiles, and temperatures of the land and ocean surface on a global basis. Also on board the satellites will be instruments for monitoring ozone and wind flow over the oceans. The first launch was on October 19 2006

Collision between the Andromede Galaxy and the Lactee Way - Dead Earth far future: In several billions of years, the Sun will have aneantit all life on Earth. Yet if a life form persists, it will then witness the collision between the Andromede galaxy and our lactee pathway that generates a wave of star formation in the sky - Bilions of years hence, the sun will swell, warm, and boil away earth's oceans, transforming our once-verdant world into a desiccated wastleand. Whatever intelligent beings might exist then may gaze over the salt flats of extinct seas at a cosmic spectacle, the slow-motion collision between our Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy, which will trigger a wave of star formation

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

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

Apollo - Soyuz: Soyuz ship - Apollo - Soyuz: Soyuz above earth - The Soyuz ship seen from the window of Apollo. 17/07/1975. This scene was photographed with a handheld 70 mm camera from a rendezvous window of the American Apollo spacecraft in Earth orbit during the Apollo - Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) mission. It shows the Soviet Soyuz spacecraft contrasted against a black - sky background with the Earth's horizon below. ASTP was a cooperative space mission between the United States and the USSR. The goals of ASTP were to test the ability of American and Soviet spacecraft to rendezvous and dock in space and to open the doors to possible international rescue missions and future collaboration on manned spaceflights.

Satellite Herschel - Illustration - Ariane 5 fairing with satellite Herschel. Artwork - Artist's view of the European satellite Herschel during its launch by an Ariane 5 rocket. The Herschel Space Observatory, launched on 14 May 2009, is studying in the infrared the formation of galaxies, stars and planetary systems. This satellite measures nearly 7 metres high by 4.3 metres wide and weighs 3.25 tonnes. Its telescope has a 3.5-meter mirror, making it the largest mirror ever made for a scientific space mission. Herschel is in orbit around Lagrange 2, approximately 1.5 million kilometres from Earth. ESA's Herschel Space Observatory (formerly called Far Infrared and Submillimetre Telescope or FIRST) will solve the mystery of how stars and galaxies were born. Objects such as other planetary systems, or processes like the birth of galaxies in the early universe, can best be studied with infrared space telescopes in space. This is the reason for Esa's Herschel. ESA's Herschel Space Observato

Backdropped against the waters of Cook Strait near New Zealand's South Island, Russia's Mir Space Station is seen from the aft flight deck window of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. The two spacecraft were in the process of making their third docking in Earth - orbit. With the subsequent delivery of astronaut Shannon W. Lucid to the Mir, the Mir - 21 crew grew to three, as the mission specialist quickly becomes a cosmonaut guest researcher. She will spend approximately 140 days on Mir before returning to Earth.

Atlantis moored the space station 07/2011 - Atlantis docked to the International Space station 07/2011 - The International Space Station (ISS) seen on 12 July 2011 by astronaut Ron Garan during his release into space. Two ships are moored at the station, the shuttle Atlantis visible on the right, and a Soyuz ship on the left. At the center of the AMS (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) experiment for the study of cosmic rays. Mission STS-135, the last United States space shuttle mission. This picture, photographed by NASA astronaut Ron Garan during the spacewalk conducted on July 12, 2011, shows the International Space Station with space shuttle Atlantis docked at right and a Russian Soyuz docked to Pirs, below the sun at far left. In the center foreground is the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) experiment installed during the STS - 134 mission. AMS is a state - of - the - art particle physics detector designed to use the unique environment of space to advance knowledge of the universe and

Cosmonaut in space - Cosmonaut extravehicular activity - Exit of cosmonaut Oleg Kotov into space. Maintenance of the International Space Station (ISS). 14 January 2010. English cosmonauts Oleg Kotov and Maxim Suraev (out of frame), both Expedition 22 flight engineers, participate in a session of extravehicular activity (EVA) as maintenance and construction continue on the International Space Station. During the spacewalk, Kotov and Suraev prepared the Mini - Research Module 2 (MRM2), known as Poisk, for future Russian vehicle dockings. Suraev and NASA astronaut Jeffrey Williams, commander, will be the first to use the new docking port when they relocate their Soyuz TMA - 16 spacecraft from the aft port of the Zvezda Service Module on Jan. 21. Earth's horizon and the blackness of space provide the backdrop for the scene. January 14, 2010
