Slide 2 Slide 3 Hubble Slide 4 The Hubble telescope is located outside our atmosphere and is orbiting around the Earth at 593 km above sea level with an orbital period of about 96 to 97 minutes at a speed of 28,000 km/h. Its name is in honor of astronomer Edwin Hubble, it was placed in orbit on April 24, 1990. It weighs about 11000 kg in a cylindrical form with a 13,2 m length and a diameter of 4,2 m. This telescope can obtain images of the cosmos at an 0,1 arc second of resolution. Slide 5 International Space Station Slide 6 View from inside the Space Station View from inside the Space Station Slide 7 Hubbles best Slide 8 This is the Sombraro Galaxie also called M104 in Messiers catalog at a distance of 28 millions light years. This is considered one of the best pictures Hubble took. Slide 9 Then we have the Ants Nebula so called because of its shape and located 3000 and 6000 light years. Slide 10 Then here is the Esquimo Nebula at 5000 light years. Slide 11 In fourth place the Cats Eye Nebula. Slide 12 Fifth place the Hour Glass Nebula located 8000 light years the result of an exploding star. Slide 13 In 6th place, we have a part of the Cone Nebula at 2,5 light years Slide 14 In Seventh position, we find a protion of the Swan Nebula located 5,500 light years described as an ocean of hydrogen with small quantities of oxygen, sulfur and other elements. Slide 15 In 8th place, this beautiful image called Starry night And also know as Light Echo. Slide 16 In 9th place, two galaxies merging NGC 2207 and IC 2163 located 114 millions light years. Slide 17 Tenth place, a fragment of the Trifid Nebula with many stars at 9000 light years.

At the centre, many young stars forming creating a wonderful spectacle of gaseous emissions. Slide 57 Earth Pluto Mars Mercury Slide 58 Earth Pluto Slide 59 Sun Earth Pluto Slide 60 Our Sunl Sirius Arturus Jupiter at 1 pixel at the point of the arrow. The Earth is not visible at this scale. Slide 61 Antares is the 15 th most brilliant star in the night sky. It is located at more then 1000 light years.

Slide 65 Slide 66 Hla aqu, pues: Contemplate this picture for a few moments. It was taken by the Cassini-Juygens probe, in 2004, when it arrived at the rings of Saturn. Slide 67 This is your planet.
