Astronomy Picture Of the Day (APOD)

Грозовое облако над Техасом APOD: 2024 August 6 Б Storm Cloud Over Texas
6.08.2024

What makes this storm cloud so colorful? First, the cloud itself is composed of millions of tiny droplets of water and ice. Its bottom is almost completely flat -- but this isn't unusual. Bottom...


Млечный Путь над Тунисом APOD: 2024 August 5 Б Milky Way Over Tunisia
5.08.2024

That's no moon. On the ground, that's the Lars Homestead in Tunisia. And that's not just any galaxy. That's the central band of our own Milky Way galaxy. Last, that's not just any meteor. It is a bright fireball likely from last year's Perseids meteor shower.


Гайя: вот появляется Солнце APOD: 2024 August 4 Б Gaia: Here Comes the Sun
4.08.2024

What would it look like to return home from outside our galaxy? Although designed to answer greater questions, data from ESA's robotic Gaia mission is helping to provide a uniquely modern perspective on humanity's place in the universe.


Ореол и туманная дуга Glory and Fog Bow
3.08.2024

On a road trip up Mount Uludaд in Bursa province, Turkey these motorcyclists found themselves above low clouds and fog in late June. With the bright Sun directly behind them, the view down the side of the great mountain revealed a beautiful, atmospheric glory and fog bow.


Движение Марса Mars Passing By
2.08.2024

As Mars wanders through Earth's night, it passes about 5 degrees south of the Pleiades star cluster in this composite astrophoto. The skyview was constructed from a series of images captured over a run of 16 consecutive clear nights beginning on July 12.


Комета Ольберса над замком Кунетицка Comet Olbers over Kunetice Castle
1.08.2024

A visitor to the inner solar system every 70 years or so Comet 13P/Olbers reached its most recent perihelion, or closest approach to the Sun, on June 30 2024. Now on a return voyage...


Леопардовые пятна на марсианских камнях APOD: 2024 July 31 Б Leopard Spots on Martian Rocks
31.07.2024

What is creating these unusual spots? Light-colored spots on Martian rocks, each surrounded by a dark border, were discovered earlier this month by NASA's Perseverance Rover currently exploring Mars. Dubbed leopard spots because...


Арп 142: взаимодействующие галактики от телескопа "Джеймс Вебб" APOD: 2024 July 30 Б Arp 142: Interacting Galaxies from Webb
30.07.2024

To some, it looks like a penguin. But to people who study the universe, it is an interesting example of two big galaxies interacting. Just a few hundred million years ago, the upper NGC 2936 was likely a normal spiral galaxy: spinning, creating stars, and minding its own business.


Млечный Путь над Улуру APOD: 2024 July 29 Б Milky Way over Uluru
29.07.2024

What's happening above Uluru? A United Nations World Heritage Site, Uluru is an extraordinary 350-meter high mountain in central Australia that rises sharply from nearly flat surroundings. Composed of sandstone, Uluru has slowly formed over the past 300 million years as softer rock eroded away.


Солнечный танец APOD: 2024 July 28 Б Sun Dance
28.07.2024

Sometimes, the surface of our Sun seems to dance. In the middle of 2012, for example, NASA's Sun-orbiting Solar Dynamic Observatory spacecraft imaged an impressive prominence that seemed to perform a running dive roll like an acrobatic dancer.
