Russell Croman took this detailed photo of the waxing Moon. Credit: Russell Croman TUM image id: 1621874487 Licence:	The foothills of the Andes Mountains near the southern coast of Peru were captured by the Kompsat-2 satellite. The Andes stretch from Venezuela down South America’s west coast to the top of Argentina. The mountain rage is the result of the Nazca and Antarctic tectonic plates moving under the South American plate—a geological process called subduction. This process is also responsible for the Andes range’s volcanic activity.

The aurora borealis, or northern lights, fill the sky behind a caribou in Norway on 19 February 2014 Credit: Ole Salomonsen / Arctic Light TUM image id: 1621872360 Licence:	Milky Way - long exposure Credit: Dave Marrow TUM image id: 1621874239 Licence:	Stargazing mixed with long exposure photography while orbiting the Earth at about 30 000 km per hour. These star trails from space were captured by astronaut photographer Don Pettit. This is a composite of a series of images photographed from a mounted camera on the International Space Station.

The desert is often called the ‘hottest place on Earth’ as satellites measured record surface temperatures there for several years.

Distinct colours are visible because the dominant gases and particles in each layer of the atmosphere act as prisms, filtering out particular colours of light.

The most famous evidence of a collision on Mimas (396 kilometres across) is the crater Herschel that gives Mimas its Death Star-like appearance. See PIA12568 for more on Herschel. This view looks toward the anti-Saturn hemisphere of Mimas. North on Mimas is up and rotated 40 degrees to the right. The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on 20 May 2013. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute TUM image id: 1620491065 Licence:
