Here’s a close up, top-down view of "knobby terrain" on Jupiter's moon Callisto, captured by #NASA's Galileo spacecraft on May 25, 2001 #OTD These are 100-meter-high ice spires that are highly reflective due to darker material having slipped down off them. In this view they're illuminated from the bottom and casting black shadows on the surrounding surface toward the top. (The bright ice overexposed the sensor on Galileo’s solid state imager camera.)
Here’s a view of the north polar region of Jupiter’s volcanic moon Io, in approximate natural color, made from images captured by @NASA's Galileo spacecraft on March 28, 1998. The background is filled by Jupiter.
Here's a look into the bright heart of the Lagoon Nebula, aka Messier 8, an emission #nebula and interstellar cloud located about 5,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Sagittarius. This is a composite/mosaic of images captured by @nasahubble in visible-light wavelengths on February 12, 2018. #space #hubble #astronomy #science
This view of Mars was captured a year ago today with the EXI camera on the UAE’s @HopeMarsMission. Color-composite of RGB filter images.
