Stellar Relic
The final remnants of a sunlike star blown out in a blue, hazy disk of gas and dust is captured by the Hubble Space Telescope.
An Earth-size white dwarf is all that remains of the progenitor star inside this planetary nebula known as NGC 2452, in the southern constellation Puppis.
Astronomers estimate that approximately 5 billion years from now, the same fate awaits our sun.
Raindrop Dunes
An infrared view of dark sand dunes on the floor of one of the oldest craters on Mars was captured by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on October 2.
Such raindrop-shaped sand dunes are made of grains of a volcanic rock, basalt, and are among the most widespread wind-formed features on the red planet.
Lagoon Nebula
The colorful stellar nursery known as the Lagoon nebula is captured through a backyard telescope on August 1.
Located some 5,000 light-years from Earth in the southern constellation Sagittarius, this giant cloud of gas and dust stretches some 100 light-years across and is faintly visible with the naked eye from dark locations.
Cosmic Lighthouse
A lighthouse in northern Norway is illuminated by the green glow of northern lights dancing in the skies above Narvick, Norway, on March 20.
Comet Pan-STARRS appears almost lost in the ghostly glow, seen with its tiny fuzzy tail in the above image, near the horizon just to the left of the lighthouse base.
Blue Fire
Resembling a fiery blue marble, the sun is captured in this dramatic extreme-ultraviolet-light image by NASA's STEREO spacecraft on September 27.
While the sun is at its maximum level of activity on its 11-year sunspot cycle, its surface the past month appears strangely quiet, with few solar storms and nearly no brighter active regions.
Astronomers theorize that this solar cycle's maximum may in fact be a double peak and that we are between peaks now. They also think that both sunspot and storm activity may pick up later this fall or in the winter early next year.
Cosmic Wings
Like giant ghostly wings, green auroras fly across the sky in this mountain scene taken near Anchorage, Alaska, on October 10.
These brilliant auroras were triggered by a coronal mass ejection that hit our planet early Thursday morning. A coronal mass ejection is a cloud of superheated gas and charged particles hurled off the sun.
When such an ejection hits the Earth, the solar particles can interact with charged particles caught in our planet's magnetic field to produce the northern and southern lights.
Warming Up
Beneath a canopy of stars, Indonesian villagers huddle around the flames of a campfire on a cold night in Java, in this striking October 8 photograph submitted to National Geographic Your Shot.
While the Milky Way glows bright in the pristine skies, two volcanic mountains, Mount Bromo (smoking on the left) and Mount Batok loom in the distance.
Martian Chasm
A small tributary of the Grand Canyon of Mars, Hebes Chasma is pictured in this high-resolution image taken by the European Space Agency's Mars Express orbiter on October 10.
Nearly 8 kilometers deep, Hebes Chasma forms a giant trough of Valles Marineris, the largest canyon system in the solar system.
Some 125 kilometers across at its widest point, the feature stretches to a length of roughly 315 kilometers. Mars scientists believe that flowing water may have carved out the entire canyon system more than a billion years ago.
Kaleidoscope Eye
This colorful portrait of the Helix nebula, made of the remnants of a sunlike star, was taken through a backyard telescope in Ocala, Florida, on October 5.
Located some 700 light-years from Earth in the constellation Aquarius, the Helix nebula is composed of colorful gas blown out from the outer atmosphere of the dying star.
Milky Way Over Goblins
A diffuse Milky Way cuts the night sky in half above the barren landscape of Goblin Valley State Park in Utah.
Partly hidden behind a river of gas and dust is the brightly burning core of our home galaxy, just visible near the horizon in this image. It lies more than 26,000 light-years away from Earth.
Stretching more than 100,000 light-years across, our Milky Way galaxy is home to some 200 billion stars. On Earth, we see the center of the galaxy from the vantage of one of its outer spiral arms.
Iceberg Aircraft Carrier
Also known as Project Habakkuk, the Brits developed a plan during World War II to construct an aircraft carrier out of pykrete (a mixture of wood pulp and ice). It took them some time, but developments in the war effort and realizing what a huge waste of resources it might be sunk the idea.
First Evidence Found of a Comet Strike on Earth
Comets haven't been observed entering Earth's atmosphere (shown here: Hale-Bopp in 1997).
Saharan glass and a brooch belonging to King Tut provide the first evidence of a comet directly impacting Earth, a new study claims. The finding may help unlock some of the mysteries surrounding the birth of oursolar system.
About 28 million years ago a comet exploded over Egypt, creating a 3600°F (2000°C) blast wave that spread out over the desert below. The fiery shockwave melted the sand, forming copious amounts of yellow silica glass scattered over 2,300 square miles (6,000 square kilometers) of the Sahara.
Polished into the shape of a scarab beetle, a large piece of this glass found its way into a brooch owned by the famed Egyptian boy king Tutankhamen.
"Because there is no sign of an impact crater, it has been a mystery as to what kind of celestial event actually could have caused this debris field, but a small, black stone found lying in the middle of the glass area caught our attention," said study co-author David Block, an astronomer at Wits University in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Fancy sink,the color says if it's hot or cold water..

Years pass by and our kidneys are filtering the blood by removing salt, poison and any unwanted entering our body. With time, the salt accumulates and this needs to undergo cleaning treatments and how are we going to overcome this?
It is very easy, first take a bunch of parsley or Cilantro ( Coriander Leaves ) and wash it clean
Then cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes and let it cool down and then filter it and pour in a clean bottle and keep it inside refrigerator to cool.
Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by urination also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.
Parsley (Cilantro) is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!
