ALT A barred spiral galaxy. There is a very large, bright white circular core at the center. A similarly colored bar structure extends from this circular core to the left and right, before hitting a ring of matter that is also white. Outside this ring are several blue spiral arms that swirl around the center. These arms appear to rotate clockwise and are dotted with bright blue star clusters, which look like fuzzy dots. There are fuzzy streaks and dots throughout the scene, which are galaxies and stars. The background is black.
ALT The image is split in half vertically. In the left image, a black background is scattered with hundreds of small galaxies of different shapes. Just a little bit above the centre, there is a bright star, with 8 diffraction spikes. The right image is a zoomed-in portion of the image at the left, showing a particularly long, red, thin line that stretches from 1 o’clock to 7 o’clock. There are several bright dots, some thicker than others, along this line, with one labelled as Earendel.
ALT Photo taken by the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter using its high-resolution color camera. This camera is mounted in the helicopter's fuselage. The image shows the horizon indicating the landing angle of the helicopter. The helicopter's shadow takes up much of the image and can be seen against the grainy ground of the Martian surface.
ALT Astronaut Frank Rubio in a grayish-white Russian cosmonaut spacesuit as he trains for liftoff. He is seated in the capsule and there are cargo packages behind him, indicating how tight the space is. A small, circular window is just behind him.
ALT A shower of Perseids meteors lights up the black night sky with streaks of green and purple light. Diffuse clouds and blue dots of light share the background.
