... Deep optical CCD image of the LMC. Diffuse Galactic Light is plainly visible in this optical image of the Large Magellanic Cloud as a haze over the entire galaxy. The phenomenon arises from starlight scattering off numerous dust clouds in and above the plane of the LMC's disk to form a faint, galaxy-wide reflection nebula. ... The CCD image above was presumably taken with a special wide-field camera at optical wavelengths. ...

... All previous such superstars have been found along with many companion stars in the centres of crowded star clusters. The star is known as VFTS 682 from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey catalogue of the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT) located at Paranal in Chile by means of the attached FLAMES instrument. ... Although VFTS 682 seems to be alone now it is not very far away from a very rich star cluster known as RMC 136 that contains several similar superstars. ...

. This image shows a dark cloud where new stars are forming along with a cluster of brilliant stars that have already emerged from their dusty stellar nursery. This cloud is known as Lupus 3, and it lies about 600 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Scorpius the Scorpion. It is likely that the Sun formed in a similar star formation region more than 4 billion years ago. // Credit: ESO/F. Comeron

Halo around the Moon. Halo arises when the light beams refracted on the high clouds icy chips ina form of a six side prism. As a result we see a small halo circle with a 22°-radius. The big circle is formed by the beams paased through the side edge and the base of prismochips. Its radius is equal to 46° (nearly). The big circle is observed rarely and is shining weaker but it is easier to observe it near the Sun, if comparing with the small halo invisible in the bright Sun light. ...
