Annoyingly having some issues copying the photo in again as it's coming up with a file type which doesn't show up on my downloads! This photo is the pale blue dot and it's one of my favourite ever space photos. During the voyager missions, they turned the camera around and took a photo, and you need to look closely for the small tiny speck of what looks like dust in the photo, what's crazy is that you are in that photo. That photo is of Earth. Hopefelly you can see it through the link

Carl Sagan made a great quote of the image

Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

I Just think it’s crazy cool that we are now getting photos of space this detailed and beautiful. How huge the universe is, finally slightly represented for us, who would never know how it appears otherwise

My favourite image is taken from NASA Hubble where you can check to see what images of space was taken on your birthday.

This image was taken on the 6th October 2004, I would’ve been 9 years old.

What you see is called the GOODS South Fiels, and it’s 12 billion years worth of cosmic history. It has thousands of galaxies at different points in a really cool panoramic view.

The Earth is flat, space is a hoax, and the stars are just glued to the sky. All that deep space telescope stuff? Total delusion. Meanwhile, my moonshot? Absolutely real!

NASA has an official image and video gallery, where you can browse publicly released material, including some stunning pictures taken by the Hubble telescope. I always loved planets with rings, and this photo of Saturn is amazing:

Here is the link to the site if you want to have a look:

A photo of the Orion Nebulae from the Hubble Telescope. To me it's just a breathtaking view, just a cluster of colors mixing together.

I like the look of this space picture of the Helix nebula and how the cosmic dust has formed to kinda look like an eye deep in space.

This is my favourite picture of space because I took it. It’s the first time I ever saw the moon through my own telescope

There are quite a lot of false-color images available of various bodies in space mankind has managed to observe so far. Those always look fascinating and inspiring but I wanted to pick a natural color one.

This is an image captured by the Cassini spacecraft. The craft was created as a joint project of the Italian Space Agency and the European Space Agency. It studied Saturn, sent back many images, and was eventually left to burn up in Saturn's atmosphere.

The image shows Saturn's largest moon, Titan and Saturn itself. Whenever I look at images of Saturn or fake sci-fi planets that resemble it, I get lost in trying to grasp how massive Saturn is. It's almost 10 times the size of Earth!!

Pluto gets a hard time of it but the images from the New Horizons spacecraft were amazing. The detail and colour palette is so cool. And to think it's not classed as a proper planet anymore 😔

I choose Black Hole for this case, at first we just guessed what it looks like until Nasa took a real picture
