Universe photo: Plain on Mercury

Plains on Mercury, discovering the new crater on Mars, the enchanting beauty of Antennae galaxy, . are the most beautiful cosmic images of the past week.

The latest image of Antennae galaxy, taken by the giant telescope of the European Space Agency in Chile, allows astronomers to observe the activities happening at the center of the galaxy this.


The picture illustrates the landing of the Curiosity probe on the Martian surface. Expected, the Curiosity probe will be launched later this year and will land at the big Gale crater on Mars in August 2012.


The HiRISE camera on the Mars probe of the US Space Agency (NASA) has recorded an unnamed large crater on the surface of the red planet. Scientists say the crater may contain ancient minerals at the bottom of the surface.


Last week, NASA's Solar Dynamics probe recorded the images
Plasma beams are fired from the Sun's surface. This unusual activity
can cause strong storms, affecting communication systems on Earth.


The image of the young star HR 8799 is recorded by NASA's Hubble space telescope. After analyzing the captured image, the scientists confirmed that there are 3 planets orbiting this star. However, the star's light makes it difficult for planets to detect.


The new image was recorded by NASA's MESSENGER probe, showing that large plains around the crater Beethoven on Mercury. The blue parts are formed when the stone is melted, while the yellow part of the unidentified source is formed.


NASA's Hubble Space Telescope recorded the constellation of M53 constellation.This young constellation has spheres and stars are linked together by gravity.
