17 April 2012 : Several million stars are vying for attention in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image of a raucous stellar breeding ground in 30 Doradus, located in the heart of the Tarantula nebula. 16 March 2012 : The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has produced the most detailed image so far of Messier 9, a globular star cluster located close to the centre of the galaxy. This ball of stars is too faint to see with the naked eye, yet Hubble can see over 250 000 individual stars shining in it.

Two American robotic resupply ships, Dragon and Cygnus, are scheduled to fly their inaugural ISS mission this year. Both spacecraft were developed under NASA's Commercial Orbital Transportation Services, or COTS, program. Initiated in 2006 , the COTS program sought to develop alternative resupply spacecraft. If their upcoming test flights are successful, additional missions could be flown by the end of the year. These missions will represent the first space station launches for two spaceports.
The Webb Space Telescope, Hubble's successor, will see in infrared, the light emitted by the farthest objects we can detect. Learn about Webb, its technology, and the science it will reveal.
HubbleSite - Out of the ordinary...out of this world.
Photography has, since its inception, been a staple of the art world. But the artistic significance of astronomical imagery has become increasingly evident in recent years through a variety of exhibitions falling at the intersection of astronomy and art. The latest of these is The History of Space Photography, on display at the Williamson Gallery at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena through May 6th.

Once the project was on track, getting confronted to the “real starry sky” has been an endurance test, full of surprises, and much more difficult that I thought at first. During the first observing night, what struck me was the shear amount of work awaiting me. I needed of course to take a picture of all I could see above me, to the west, the east, the north, the south and the zenith, but that wasn’t the end of it… Indeed I knew I would have to start over again in the other hemisphere, the one below my feet so to say, at the nadir… For a while, feeling dizzy, I was wondering what I was doing here…
