La Terre vue par satellite - Flying over 700 km above the Earth onboard the Terra satellite, MODIS provides an integrated tool for observing a variety of terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric features of the Earth. The land and coastal ocean portions of these images are based on surface observations collected from June through September 2001 and combined, or composited, every eight days to compensate for clouds that might block the sensor's view of the surface on any single day. Two different types of ocean data were used in these images: shallow water true color data, and global ocean color (or chlorophyll) data. Topographic shading is based on the GTOPO 30 elevation dataset compiled by the U.S. Geological Survey's EROS Data Center. MODIS observations of polar sea ice were combined with observations of Antarctica made by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's AVHRR sensor - - the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer

Mars: crater in Myers Valles - Mars: crater in Myers Valles - Mamers Valles is a valley about 1000 km long located in the region of Deuteronilus Mensae, north of Arabia Terra. The image obtained by the Mars Express probe on 5 August 2006 shows a crater at the end of this valley. This circular formation measures about thirty kilometres in diameter and is 1400 metres deep. There are traces of flow of material probably composed of water ice, similar to the relief left by the passage of glaciers on Earth. The High - Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) onboard the ESA spacecraft Mars Express obtained images focusing on a depression that displays a crater at the end of the long, winding valley, Mamers Valles. The data was obtained on 5 August 2006 with a ground resolution of approximately 14 m/per pixel. The image is centred at approximately 39* north and 17* east on the planet. The valley of Mamers Valles is approximately 1000 km long, running along the boundary between the northern lowlands an

Jupiter from his satellite Themisto - Illustration - Jupiter from Themisto - Illustration - Jupiter and its Galilean satellites (from left to right Ganymede, Europe, Io and Callisto) seen from his satellite Themisto. Themisto is a small satellite only 8 km in diameter. This is how Jupiter and its Galilean satellites may appear from the surface of Jupiter's tiny moon Themisto. At a distance of 4.7 million miles, Jupiter subtends an angle of 1.1 degrees (the moon subtends an angle of 0.5 degrees in Earth's sky). The Galilean satellites are, left to right, Ganymede, Europa, Io, and on the far right Callisto. Themisto is the next significant body orbiting Jupiter beyond Callisto. Beyond Themisto are another 54 known jovian satellites. With a mean diameter of only 5 miles and an albedo (surface brightness) about half that of the Moon, no earthbound telescope or interplanetary probe has yet revealed any details of Themisto's surface. In this image the artist is suggesting that Themisto has a

Volcano Arsia Mons - Arsia Mons volcano. - Arsia Mons is one of the largest known volcanoes. It rises more than 9 km above the Martian surface and its caldera extends for 110 km. Image obtained by the Mars Global Surveyor probe. Arsia Mons is one of the largest volcanoes known. This shield volcano is part of an aligned trio known as the Tharsis Montes (the others are Pavonis Mons and Ascraeus Mons). Arsia Mons is rivaled only by Olympus Mons in terms of its volume. The summit of Arsia Mons is more than 9 kilometers (5.6 miles) higher than the surrounding plains. The crater (or caldera) at the volcano summit is approximately 110 km (68 mi) across. This view of Arsia Mons was taken by the red and blue wide angle cameras of the Mars Global Surveyor Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) system. Bright water ice clouds (the whitish/bluish wisps) hang above the volcano, a common sight every martian afternoon in this region. Arsia Mons is located at 120* west longitude and 9* south latitude.

FLYING OVER THE NORTH POLE: Two Hastings aircraft of the Royal Air Force Flying College at Manby, Lines., have just returned with these photographs taken by an Air Ministry photographer on fly over and near the North Pole. Each aircraft circled the Geographical Pole on two 11-hour fights from the Royal Canadian Air Force base at Resolute Bay, which lies within the Arctic circle (position: 74 degrees 50 minutes north, 95 degrees West) The flights, which involved flying 10, 115 miles, gave practical training in high-altitude navigational work over featureless areas, where magnetic compasse are unreliable, using special techniques. Captained by Squadron leader H.D. Archer, D.F.C. and Flight Lieutenant H.W. Firmin, D.F.C., the aircraft carried two staff navigators and five students, with other air and ground crew.

Around the Nares Detroit - Canada - Greenland - Nares strait area - Canada - Greenland - This radar image from Envisat shows the northeast tip of Ellesmere Island (left) in the Canadian Arctic and the northwestern extremity of Greenland - the largest island on the planet (right). At the bottom of the image, the waters, which appear in green and purple, form the detroit of Nares, which flies north to form the Robeson Canal. It drains the Lincoln Sea (in the upper left corner) which is part of the Arctic Ocean. The white and blue area on the right side of the image is a portion of the Greenland ice cap, the second largest concentration of frozen fresh water on Earth after the Antarctic polar cap. The largest floating glacier in the northern hemisphere, the Petermann Glacier, is reddish in colour, and runs at the bottom of the image in the centre towards the detroit of Nares. The Petermann Glacier lost a 29 km2 block between July 10 and 25, 2008. Standard radar images are not in colour be

It drains the Lincoln Sea (in the upper left corner) which is part of the Arctic Ocean. The white and blue area on the right side of the image is a portion of the Greenland ice cap, the second largest concentration of frozen fresh water on Earth after the Antarctic polar cap. The largest floating glacier in the northern hemisphere, the Petermann Glacier, is reddish in colour, and runs at the bottom of the image in the centre towards the detroit of Nares. The Petermann Glacier lost a 29 km2 block between July 10 and 25, 2008. Standard radar images are not in colour be

Exoplanete GJ 1214 b - Exoplanet GJ 1214 b - Illustration showing the transit of the extrasolar planet GJ 1214 b in front of its star, the red dwarf GJ 1214, in the constellation Ophiuchus. GJ 1214 b is a super Earth, six times the mass of the Earth, which has an atmosphere but is too inhospitable to shelter life as we know it. This artist's impression shows how the super - Earth surrounding the nearby star GJ1214 may look. Discovered by the Mearth project and investigated further by the HARPS spectrograph on ESO's 3.6 - metre telescope at La Silla, GJ1214b is the second super - Earth exoplanet for which astronomers have determined the mass and radius, giving vital clues about its structure. It is also the first super - Earth around which an atmosphere has been found. The exoplanet, orbiting a small star only 40 light - years away from us, thus opens dramatic new perspectives in the quest for habitable worlds. The planet, GJ1214b, has a mass about six times that of Earth and its interi

Neptune - Illustration - Neptune's Great Dark Spot - Illustration - Artist's view of Neptune with its ring system and large dark spot observed by the Voyager 2 probe in 1989. This is how Neptune's Great Dark Spot and rings may have looked in 1989 from a position just beneath Neptune's ring plane. The outermost Adams ring is near the top of the frame, and beneath that is the much broader and diffuse Lassell ring. Further in toward Neptune and abutting the Lassell ring is the thin Le Verrier ring, and beyond that is the diffuse Galle ring. The Great Dark Spot is believed to be a storm similar to, but only half the size of, Jupiter's Great Red Spot. While Jupiter's Great Red Spot has been raging for at least 400 years, subsequent observations of Neptune's Great Dark Spot in 1994 by the Hubble Space Telescope revealed that this storm has since disappeared. The Great Dark Spot was a very dynamic weather system, generating massive, white clouds similar to high - altitude cirrus clouds on Ear

Phobos and Mars - Illustration - Phobos and Mars - Illustration - Artist's view of Phobos, the largest of Mars's two satellites. This is how Mars and its tiny satellite Phobos might appear from a distance of about 100 miles from Phobos' surface. Phobos is over the low martian plains of Syrtis Major. Below the plains extending down to Mars' terminator and beyond is the heavily cratered Terra Sabaea. Clouds of water - ice crystals are forming at the terminator between light and dark. Looking more like a common potato than a celestial body, Phobos is actually the larger of Mars' two satellites, with a length of about 16 miles and about 11 miles across its smallest dimension. Phobos does not have enough mass for gravity to pull it into a uniform sphere like the larger satellites and planets in the Solar System. Phobos may be an asteroid long ago captured by Mars' gravity, orbiting a mere 5,800 miles above Mars' surface, making it the closest satellite to its host planet in the Solar System

View of methane and ethane lakes. - This false-color mosaic, made from infrared data collected by Nasa's Cassini spacecraft, reveals the differences in the composition of surface materials around hydrocarbon lakes at Titan, Saturn's largest moon. Titan is the only other place in the solar system that we know has stable liquid on its surface, though its lakes are made of liquid ethane and methane rather than liquid water. While there is one large lake and a few smaller ones near Titan's south pole, almost all of Titan's lakes appear near the moon's north pole - Scientists mapped near-infrared colors onto the visible color spectrum. Red in this image was assigned a wavelength of 5 microns (10 times longer than visible light), green 2.0 microns (four times longer than visible light), and blue 1.3 microns (2.6 times longer than visible light) - The orange

An impact crater about 15 km in diameter differs from the striated surface of the satellite. In the sky are represented Jupiter, the Europe satellite on the top right, and Io on the left of Jupiter. Jupiter's largest satellite Ganymede has a varying surface, some of which is characterized by rumpled bundles of ridges and grooves that run for hundreds of miles over a frozen surface of water - ice. They probably formed long ago when tectonic forces pulled apart Ganymede's upper crust; similar sets of faults occur in rift zones on Earth, as in eastern Africa. Subsequent meteoritic impacts have peppered - - and broken in places - - the continuity of the running formations. In this image an impact crater about 10 miles in diameter dominates a scene otherwise defined by a dozen long ridges. In the middle of the crater is a

Astronauts on Titan - Illustration - First steps on Titan - Astronauts explore Titan's surface. Perhaps some day in the far future humans will set foot on Saturn's mysterious moon Titan, one of the most interesting worlds in the Solar System. Larger than the planet Mercury, Earth's moon, and the dwarf planet Pluto, and second only in size to Jupiter's satellite Ganymede, Titan is the only known extraterrestrial world with a dense atmosphere that realistically could be visited by humans. A visit to Titan would require a space journey of a year or more and traverse over 700 million miles. Beneath Titan's 350 miles of atmosphere, intrepid explorers would likely find a dark, forbidding landscape of rock, ice, and possibly tarry layers of hydrocarbons and lakes of liquid ethane and/or methane (AKA natural gas). The Surface temperature would be around minus 300* F, cold enough to freeze exposed human tissue within seconds. There would be no oxygen to breathe, and any water to be found would

On Saturn's satellite, gravity is lower than on the Moon, an astronaut weights ten times less than on Earth. While Titan is one of the largest terrestrial worlds in the Solar System, larger even than any of the known dwarf planets, the pull of gravity at its surface is only 1/10th the Earth's. Titan's surface gravity is lower than even the Moon's (which is 1/6th the Earth's), and yet Titan's diameter is about 50% larger than the Moon's.
