How often do you get to see the moon this close up?? This is some footage I got last night, 9/8/08 of the moon. My Nexstar 8 telescope was magnifying the moon 120x, allowing the craters of the Northeastern and southeastern quadrants of the moon to be seen in detail. There was a cloud in front of the moon, however, I was still able to get some good shots. Some sections of the video are actually more than 120X, since I also used the zoom on the camera. Knowing that, there may have been segments of the video where the moon was around 200-250X (~2X zoom on camera). Sorry for the shakiness, but the mechanism for moving the telescope has a small amount of vibration and it's difficult to use a digital camera in this way. Hope you enjoy! Please let me know what you think and leave a comment or question under Video Comments! Also Rate the video if you enjoyed it!

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a new image of the galaxy NGC 1132 which is most likely to be a "cosmic fossil" -- the aftermath of an enormous multi-galactic pile-up, where the carnage of collision after collision has built up a brilliant but fuzzy giant elliptical galaxy far outshining typical galaxies.

By scrutinising the Hubble Ultra Deep field -- the deepest image of the sky ever made -- the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA Spitzer Space Telescope have joined forces to discover nine of the smallest, faintest, most compact galaxies ever observed in the distant Universe.

June 3 (Bloomberg) -- Bloomberg's Scarlet Fu reports on the Mars 500 experiment in Russia, in which an international team of six researchers will spend 520 days in a windowless steel enclosure to simulate a flight to Mars. (Source: Bloomberg)

For decades, the US space agency, NASA, has been exploring space not only with manned spacecraft, like the space shuttle Atlantis, but with robotic space probes such as Mars Odyssey, or Cassini, currently exploring Saturn. Equipped with powerful cameras, these robots transmit pictures that provide information like the climate and topography of other planets. In the hands of photographer Michael Benson, those images become art. A new exhibition at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington features nearly 150 of Benson's transformed photographs. VOA's Susan Logue has more on "Beyond: Visions of Our Solar System."
