Hubble Galaxy Tapestries
Description: The Milky Way galaxy is about 200,000 light-years across with 100 to 400 billion stars. Our sun, Sol is 26,000 light-years from the center on the Orion-Cygnus spiral arm. A great gift for astronomers, space enthusiasts, space geeks, telescope stargazers, science students and teachers who love astro physics, earth sciences, planets, stars, meteorites, comets, black holes, nebula, speed of light, parsecs Hubble and sci-fi.
Description: Planet Neptune Astronomy Solar System Milky Way Galaxy. Neptune is the fourth-largest ice giant planet and eighth farthest from the Sun. It has the strongest winds of any planet in the Solar System, with speeds as high as 1,300 mph. A great gift for astronomers, telescope stargazers, space geeks, space fans, space explorers, astronauts, science students, teachers, and scientists who love astro physics, earth sciences, planets, stars, solar system, space exploration, Hubble and sci-fi.
Description: Planet Mars Martian Astronomy Solar System Milky Way Galaxy. A cool graphic for space nerds, astronomers and lovers of Mars called The Red Planet because of surface iron oxide shown in great detail with impact craters and volcanic features. A great gift for astronomers, telescope stargazers, space geeks, space fans, space explorers, astronauts, science students, teachers, and scientists who love astro physics, earth sciences, planets, stars, solar system, space exploration, Hubble and sci-fi.
Description: To quote NASA: "This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Picture of the Week features NGC4826 — a spiral galaxy located 17 million light-years away in the constellation of Coma Berenices (Berenice’s Hair). This galaxy is often referred to as the “Black Eye”, or “Evil Eye”, galaxy because of the dark band of dust that sweeps across one side of its bright nucleus."
Description: Planet Mercury - Astronomy Solar System Milky Way Galaxy. Mercury, similar in appearance to the Moon is the smallest and closest planet to the sun. Named after the Roman messenger god, it shows heavy cratering from comets and asteroids. A great gift for astronomers, telescope stargazers, space geeks, space fans, space explorers, astronauts, science students, teachers, and scientists who love astro physics, earth sciences, planets, stars, solar system, space exploration, Hubble and sci-fi.
Description: Planet Pluto (RIP) • Astronomy Solar System Milky Way Galaxy. Pluto is an icy dwarf planet in the Kuiper belt, a ring of bodies beyond the orbit of Neptune, has five known moons and takes about 248 years to orbit the Sun. Never forget Pluto! A great gift for astronomers, telescope stargazers, space geeks, space fans, space explorers, astronauts, science students, teachers, and scientists who love astro physics, earth sciences, planets, stars, solar system, space exploration, Hubble and sci-fi.
