When at apogee the Moon moves less than 12 degrees per day to the East among the stars, whereas at perigee it moves nearly 15 degrees per day. (António Cidadão, apod041021) A comparison of the apparent size of perigee and apogee full moons (Image Credit JPL/USGS/NASA) An image of ...
spacecraft(宇宙飞船) named Juno has captured highly clear pictures of one of Jupiter's (木星)moons. Juno, which is operated by NAS A (美国国家航空航天局) , flew about 930 miles above the surface of the moon lo. That's 1 than any other spacecraft has got since 2001, when NASA's Ga...
Out of millions of images, just 49 were selected as the best photos of the year. Our photo editors give a glimpse behind the scenes of 9 images included in our 2022 Pictures of the Year annual special issue.

But even pictures of our closest neighbors like the sun, moon, and planets in the Solar System have new surprises for us. Using sophisticated instruments, we can see different wavelengths of light, moons transiting across planets, and spectacular closeups of peaks and craters. Some of these ...
moons, and the universe. With almost sixty illustrations, including dramatic photographs taken by NASA spacecraft over the past four decades, and photos taken in many of the operations areas supporting the historic space missions, My Life in Space promises surprises wi...
But in 2013, NASA'sMESSENGERspacecraft — short for Mercury Surface, Space, Environment, Geochemistry, and Ranging — captured this image of Earth and the moon from 61 million miles away. At the time, the mission was actually looking for possible small moons around Mercury. ...
moons transiting across planets, and spectacular closeups of peaks and craters. Some of these photos of space are so beautiful, they don't even seem real. As new telescopes and software are introduced by NASA, however, our views of the universe will become even more spectacular - making ...
People in Suzhou build lots of bridges. Some are small and short, some are very long. For example, Baodai Bridge is very long and you can count moons in the river at the Mid-Autumn Festival. why do people here love to build bridges? Because there are so many rivers here. Suzhou is...
