Esa/hubble: A Wide Field Image of Perseus (Ground Based Image)

This image shows the location of an Advanced Camera for Surveys series of a portion of the Andromeda Galaxy.

This ground-based image of the area around NGC 4214 shows this dwarf irregular galaxy in its context. The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has made a close-up image of the galaxy which reveals more detail, including evidence of current...

This is a wide field, ground-based view of the region around NGC 2467 created from digitised photographs taken through red and blue filters. The field of view is about three degrees across.

A wide-field image of the region around NGC 7023 constructed from Digitized Sky Survey 2 data. The field of view is approximately 2.8 degrees x 2.9 degrees.

A wide-field image of the region around NGC 4710 constructed from Digitized Sky Survey 2 data. The field of view is approximately 2.8 degrees x 2.9 degrees.

A wide-field image of the region around NGC 7049 constructed from the images in the Digitized Sky Survey. The field-of-view is approximately 4.1 degrees x 3.1 degrees.

This wide-field image of the sky around the spiral galaxy Messier 66 was created from photographs forming part of the Digitized Sky Survey 2. Located about 35 million light-years away from Earth, this galaxy is about 100 000 light-years...

A wide-field image in the region of NGC 3603 taken on the ground by the Digitized Sky Survey 2. The glowing clouds of hydrogen gas (seen here in orange) compose a vast emission nebula. The field of view is approximately 2.6 x 2.8 degrees.

This ground-based view shows the area of sky around the merging galaxy cluster Abell 2744, which has been given the nickname Pandora’s Cluster. This remarkable object seems to be the result of the collision of at least four separate...

This ground-based view shows the area of sky around the lensing cluster Abell 383. Lensing clusters are clusters of elliptical galaxies whose gravity is so strong that they distort and magnify the light from faraway galaxies behind them....
