He finished the first month of autumn, which means it's time to remember what happened in September in the world, associated with the cosmos. We assure you of events it was enough. This means that the material will be interesting.
The new trio of cosmonauts in Star City (Kevin Ford, Oleg Novitsky, Yevgeny Tarelkin) are ready for their five-month mission to the ISS, which will start on October 23.
A few days earlier, in Kazakhstan landed 32th expedition near the town of Arkalyk.
View of the giant asteroid Vesta. Photographed automatic interplanetary station NASA «Dawn».
Photo before the next flight drone «Global Hawk», which provides scientists with data on the origin and causes amplification of tropical storms in the Atlantic. Starting next year, will start the program on a more detailed study of these natural phenomena.
Photos of Saturn with rings at an interesting angle made by interplanetary station «Cassini». The sixth-largest moon of Saturn, Enceladus (504 kilometers across) appears small dot in the lower left corner.
Before you actually the last flight of the program «Space Shuttle». Space Shuttle "Endeavour" brought to Los Angeles, where it will be on display in the California Science Center.
Photos from the ISS. Forest fires in Idaho, USA.
Containers with eighteen lenses to build the Space Telescope "James Webb Space Telescope," which will be replacing the "Hubble" with 2018 year. Unlike the existing analogues, "James Webb" will film in the visible spectrum.
Archive photo from the ISS. New York, September 11, 2001. Visible smoke towers after the terrorist attack.
Italian "boot" at night with the ISS.
The bottom of the rover «Curiosity» before the start of the study place called Glenelg. Here converge three different types of terrain.
Unusual marsoyagody :) This image the surface of the crater Endeavour made camera Imager. In the original, you are looking at an area of about 6 centimeters diagonally.
Photo taken La Silla Observatory in Chile. Pencil Nebula (NGC 2736). It is the remains after a supernova explosion that took place about 11,000 years ago.
Booster «Atlas-5" sends a spy satellite into orbit and eleven small, to study the planet, Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.
Photo of the spiral Whirlpool Galaxy (M51).
Snapshot Rachmaninoff crater on Mercury.
Galaxy NGC 7090 in the lens of the telescope "Hubble". It is at a distance of 30 million light-years from Earth.
This gem is located in the Gale crater on Mars, measuring 40 centimeters in height and 25 cm in width, was named Jack Matievich, in honor of the recently deceased engineer, took an active part in the development of the project.
This will finish our review, see you next month!
