I particularly like the Mars sunset.

Also check out the links to more images close to the bottom of the page.

I also have this page ...

... in my RSS reader and look at it everyday on my phone. If something is particularly beautiful, I star the page on my phone and come back to it when I get on my main PC.

Great find Vern!

Since the Sombrero and Black Eye are not among the pics up there, I'll share it here as links--both are my favorite galaxy shots, because I'm primarily interested in interstellar dust clouds...

APOD is also a staple for me.

i think i've seen most of those pics.. if you want galleries of space pics, this is the site to be in Learn More at Space.com. From Satellites to Stars, NASA information, Astronomy, the Sun and the Planets, we have your information here. ,i think most of those pics came from hubble, they have a newer telescope that hubble, its called 'spitzer' w/c i think is an infrared telescope if i'm not mistaken..

These clearly explains the beauty of the universe. God is indeed magnificent. He knows that one day man will look further than what his eyes can see and would look for more amazing sights. God is indeed Great and full of majesty. Thanks for the pix.

Images from hubble telelscope.....actually they are edited.
NASA acquired all those images from a series of gray photos, each photo contains different substances. While editing, they coordinated the colors to a certain elements,
RED GREEN and BLUE and merged them as one beautiful image.
