Get swept up in the beauty of our universe with this collection of spectacular images taken by today's most powerful telescopes and orbiting probes. These breathtaking photographs both enthrall and inform as they capture the many wonders of outer space. Moving from the planets in our own solar system, to the Milky Way, to the far ends of the universe, it features images taken by Earth's largest telescopes--including the Hubble, Herschel, and Keck telescopes in Hawaii--along with those sent back by spacecraft such as Cassini and New Horizons. Gaze at merging galaxies, overlapping galaxies, and galaxies undergoing huge bursts of star formation, as well as the most distant objects we are able to glimpse. The images, which come from agencies such as NASA and the European Southern Observatory in Chile, all include commentary by an expert astronomer who explains what we are looking at and provides technical information on how the photo was achieved.

Images of the Universe is a special collection of essays written to celebrate astronomy and the centenary of the British Astronomical Association. Colin Ronan opens the book with a fascinating account of the developments over the last hundred years. For the first time in history astronomers can detect radiation emanating from the Universe across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Space probes have visited the planets and various missions have beamed back to Earth historically and scientifically important images, many of which appear in this book. Astronomy is a science where the amateur and the professional interact constructively. This book is a testament to this relationship. The work of amateurs is presented alongside that of the professional and in each chapter the future discoveries are anticipated. Each planet is explored and beautifully illustrated. The stars, birth place of the elements are examined. Paul Murdin, gives an account of the brightest supernova to be seen from earth since 1604. Iain Nicolson, explores G2 the single dwarf called the Sun. Heather Couper and Nigel Henbest look at the Milky Way, the hazy band of light that is the edge on view of our galaxy. Malcolm Longair looks beyond our own galaxy into the deep sky. Paul Davies gives an account of the first one second of the existence of our expanding Universe. How did it all happen? Martin Rees, the cosmologist, speculates on the origin of the Universe.

En explorant ses moindres aspects, des trous noirs aux exoplanètes, le télescope Hubble a changé la face de l'astronomie, mais aussi notre propre conscience du cosmos. Pour le 25e anniversaire de la mise en orbite du télescope Hubble, TASCHEN rend hommage aux images de Hubble en tant qu'exploits scientifiques et que chefs-d'oeuvre photographiques. Ces images de très haute résolution, obtenues malgré la quasi absence de lumière, ont répondu à certaines des questions les plus captivantes sur le temps et l'espace, tout en révélant de nouveaux mystères comme l'étrange "énergie sombre", qui accélère sans cesse l'expansion de l'univers. La précision extrême de ces observations se reflète dans celle avec laquelle TASCHEN les a reproduites : les illustrations fascinent par leurs teintes irisées et leurs formes à la fois fragiles, immenses et élégantes. Cette collection est accompagnée d'un essai du critique et spécialiste de la photo Owen Edwards et d'un entretien avec Zoltan Levay, qui explique comment les images ont été composées. Les anciens astronautes Charles F. Bolden, Jr. et John Mace Grunsfeld, qui font autorité dans ce domaine, donnent également leur vision personnelle de l'héritage de Hubble et de l'avenir de l'exploration spatiale.

With a fleet of telescopes in space and giant observatories on the ground, professional astronomers produce hundreds of spectacular images of space every year. These colorful pictures have become infused into popular culture; we find them on billboards, in commercials, and on our computers. But they also invite questions: Is this what outer space really looks like? Are the colors real? How are these images made? "Coloring the Universe" uses accessible language to describe how these giant telescopes work, what scientists learn with them, and how they are used to make color images. Both informative and beautiful, this book is filled with brilliant images of deep space as well as an insider s perspective by the people who make them."

Cosmos is organized thematically so that the reader cannavigate between the stunning images of different phenomena, which are grouped into nebulas, stars, the sun, the planets, satellites, galaxies, and the origins of the universe - containing entries ranging from an asteroid to a white dwarf. Each entry is given a double-page spread or more for maximum visibility and understanding. To help us marvel more at the grandeur of these images significant facts, including the name of the space probe or telescope that captured each image and the distance of the space phenomenon from Earth, are provided in data boxes. In addition, a section at the back of the book is devoted to the spacecraft the pictures were taken by, covering their purpose, who built them, where they have travelled and what they have discovered. With an introduction by Professor Stephen Hawkins and someof the most astonishing pictures of our universe, this is really abook for anyone who has looked up into the night sky withwonder and awe.

Designed with large images and distraction-free layouts to increase the impact of Hubble’s imagery, this book gives the reader a guided tour of the cosmos through the eyes of the Hubble Space Telescope. Before Hubble was launched in 1990, no exoplanet had ever been observed, dark energy was unknown, the age of the universe was a mystery, and the most distant objects observed were just halfway back in time to the Big Bang. Hubble has been the centerpiece in a revolution in astronomy, as well as giving the public a visceral connection to the Universe through its stunning images. The images that have been selected here explore key themes in recent astronomy, including planetary science, cosmology and stellar evolution, explaining Hubble’s contributions to our understanding of the universe. Hubble's unique images – some never published before – are presented together with a mix of cutting-edge science that highlights the key discoveries of the past few years and how they fit into Hubble’s growing list of scientific achievements. It is an unforgettable view of our amazing universe.
