Carina Nebula - NGC 3372 Ceres

Carina Nebula - NGC 3372 CeresA region of star birth and death in the Carina Nebula is so impressive, it is also known as the Grand Nebula. This image, released for Hubble's 17th anniversary, displays a 50 light year wide view of the central region inside the Carina Nebula, within the Carina Sagittarius Arm of the constellation Carina. The nebula is estimated to be between 6,500 and 10,000 light years from Earth and is somewhat lesser known because of its location in our southern

a floating city in the clouds may be only slightly less uncomfortable

Jupiter's auroras are hundreds of times more powerful than the Aurora Borealis on Earth

Gravity on both of these very small moons is very weak

The visible light captured by Hubble shows off the swirls of bright stars and glowing gas that give the galaxy its nickname the Pinwheel Galaxy

Standing on Phobos you will be 1000 times lighter than on Earth
