The space between the
stars, which is called the interstellar medium is not empty. Although the
density of matter is very low (about 10,000 particles per cm3), there is a rich
variety of atoms and molecules that populate it. The most abundant material, as
in the rest of the universe is hydrogen (in three variants: ionized, atomic and
molecular) and helium. But there are also molecules of all kinds, to over a
hundred have come to find. Since the most abundant and simple, water (H2O), to
large, complex organic chains as acetone or benzene.

As amateur astronomers can help lunar mission LADEE
Mission Lunar
Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) scheduled for launch into
space from Wallops Island on September 5 this year. LADEE will be the first
mission, sent from the Wallops Island, which will go beyond low-Earth orbit. As
a joint project of the Goddard Space Flight Center and NASA Ames Research
Center, LADEE will learn from orbit conditions that exist on the Moon,
including its tenuous exosphere.
Hubble sees galaxies colliding in outer space
Space Telescope NASA /
European Space Agency "Hubble" recently made this
beautiful picture a pair of interacting galaxies known as Arp 142. When two
galaxies approach each other so closely that they begin to interact with each
other, they both appear spectacular changes. In some cases, two galaxies can
come together, and in the other - on the contrary, to be ripped.
