Barred Spiral Galaxy

NGC 2146 is a barred spiral galaxy located approximately 80 million light-years away in the constellation Camelopardalis.

It is an interesting object of study due to its dusty spiral arm that has looped in front of the galaxy's core as seen from our perspective.

Neptune

Neptune is dark, cold, and very windy. It's the last of the planets in our solar system. It's more than 30 times as far from the sun as Earth is. Neptune is very similar to Uranus. It's made of a thick fog of water, ammonia, and methane over an Earth-sized solid center. Its atmosphere is made of hydrogen, helium, and methane. The methane gives Neptune the same blue color as Uranus. Neptune has six rings, but they're very hard to see

Clearest Image ever taken of Mars’ North Pole. Yes that’s water ice.
