Ida
and Dactyl: Asteroid and Moon Credit:
Galileo Project, JPL, NASA Explanation: This asteroid has a moon! The robot
spacecraft Galileo currently exploring the Jovian system, encountered and
photographed two asteroids during its long journey to Jupiter. The second
asteroid it photographed, Ida, was discovered to have a moon which appears
as a small dot to the right of Ida in this picture. The tiny moon, named
Dactyl, is about one mile across, while the potato shaped Ida measures
about 36 miles long and 14 miles wide. Dactyl is the first moon of an asteroid
ever discovered. The names Ida and Dactyl are based on characters in Greek
mythology. Do other asteroids have moons? Authors & editors: Robert
Nemiroff (MTU) & Jerry Bonnell (USRA) NASA Technical Rep.: Jay Norris.

Hubble
Tracks Jupiter's Great Red Spot Credit: Amy Simon et al. &
the Hubble Heritage Team (AURA/ STScI/ NASA) Explanation: It is a hurricane
twice the size of the Earth. It has been raging at least as long as telescopes
could see it, and shows no signs of slowing. It is Jupiter's Great Red
Spot, the largest swirling storm system in the Solar System. Like most
astronomical phenomena, the Great Red Spot was neither predicted nor immediately
understood after its discovery. Still today, details of how and why the
Great Red Spot changes its shape, size, and color remain mysterious. A
better understanding of the weather on Jupiter may help contribute to the
better understanding of weather here on Earth. In the pictures on the left,
the Hubble Space Telescope has captured Jupiter's Great Red Spot in various
states over the past several years. Robert Nemiroff (MTU) & Jerry Bonnell

The
Vela Supernova Remnant Expands Credit & Copyright: David Malin
(AAO), AATB Explanation: The explosion is over but the consequences
continue. About eleven thousand years ago a star in the constellation of
Vela exploded, creating a strange point of light briefly visible to humans
living near the beginning of recorded history. The outer layers of the
star crashed into the interstellar medium, driving a shock wave that is
still visible today. Different colors in the complex, right moving shock,
pictured on the left, represent different energies of impact of the shock
front. The star on the left appears by chance in the foreground, and the
long diagonal line is also unrelated. Remaining at the center of the Vela
Supernova Remnant is a pulsar, a star as dense as nuclear matter that completely
rotates more than ten times in a single second. Authors

"The strong wind blowing in my ears in the so called "Subway"
reminded me of a train zipping by a station without stopping."
Asia
at Night Credit & Copyright: DMSP
Digital Archive, NGDC, NOAA Explanation: This is what Asia looks like at
night! Can you find your favorite Asian city? Although not all of Asia
is shown, city lights might make this task possible. The above picture
is actually a composite of over 200 images made by satellites orbiting
the Earth. Scans were made by the USAF Defense Meteorological Satellite
Program (DMSP) Operational Linescan System. The DMSP satellites continue
to help in the understanding and prediction of weather phenomena as well
as provide key information about population patterns, city light levels,
and even rural forest fires. Authors & editors: Robert Nemiroff (MTU)
