Beautiful Photos of our Universe


THE GREAT GALAXY IN ANDROMEDA

NASA has recently released never-before seen photos of our Universe. These photos were taken with an infrared telescope called the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE).

These photos are the highest quality photos ever taken of our cosmos.

These beautiful pictures of our Moon were taken with different cameras.




Notice the clarity of the photo on the left, which was taken from the Galileo spacecraft on its way to Jupiter in the early 1990's. The photo on the right is digital and taken from Earth.

Amazing how much detail is available once we get outside our atmosphere!
