NASA’s Cassini spacecraft spied details on the pockmarked surface of Saturn’s moon Prometheus (86 kilometers, or 53 miles across) during a moderately close flyby on Dec. 6, 2015. This is one of Cassini’s highest resolution views of #Prometheus. The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera.
The #Cassini mission is a cooperative project of #NASA, #ESA (@EuropeanSpaceAgency) and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (@nasajpl) a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging operations center is based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

Happy space Saturday everybody!

So beautiful.

With this picture of the Milky Way photographed lying on my back in the Makgadikgadi, a salt pan situated in north-eastern Botswana, I would like to wish all Instafollowers, Instafriends and fellow @natgeo photographers a Happy New Year full of happiness and exciting discovery!
Please go to @mattiasklumofficial to see a golden morning near my home in Sweden!
I shared this cosmic moment in Africa with @einarklumphotos, @ansgarklumphotos and @monikaklum #happynewyear #bwsp #milkyway #stars #space #NASA #internationalspacestation #conservation #expedition #mattiasklum #cosmic #livingthedream #earth @natgeo @natgeocreative @thephotosociety @mattiasklumcollection @bigworldsmallplanet #Regrann by nemullens

Arp 94 
Image Credit: Ken Crawford (Rancho Del Sol Obs.) Collaboration: David Martinez-Delgado (MPIA, IAC), et al.
This telescopic snapshot records a cosmic moment in the tumultuous lives of large spiral galaxy NGC 3227 and smaller elliptical NGC 3226. Catching them in the middle of an ongoinggravitational dance, the sensitive imaging also follows faint tidal star streams flung from the galaxies in their repeated close encounters. Over 50 million light-years distant toward the constellation Leo, the pair’s appearance has earned them the designation Arp 94 in the classic catalogof peculiar galaxies. But such galactic collisions and mergers are now thought to represent a normal course in the evolution of galaxies, including our own Milky Way. Spanning about 90,000 light-years, similar in size to the Milky Way, NGC 3227 is recognized as an active Seyfert galaxy with a central supermassive black hole.
