Astronomy Picture of the Day

About

NASA's daily dose of wow! for the casual astronomy junkie.

Spectacular Hubble and Chandra photos of galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters; breathtaking shots from (and of) the ISS and shuttle missions; highlights from the rovers on Mars, Cassini in the Saturn system, MESSENGER in orbit around Mercury; eclipses, auroras, and images of the Milky Way in the night sky; and historical pictures too — all with plain-English captions to explain the science of it all.

Wonderfully addictive!
