WorldWide Telescope images from previous releases

chandraAbell1869 Abell 1689 cluster of galaxies. Example of a high-resolution image from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory Center. Shown here embedded on the sky with the Digitized Sky Survey in the background. This is one of more than 1,000 new images added to WorldWide Telescope since it was first available in May 2008.

fermiAllSkySurvey Part of the galactic plane in the gamma ray

wavelength. This data was released in late August 2008 by NASA's newest space telescope, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. This is one of more than 1,000 new images added to WorldWide Telescope since it was first available in May 2008.

JackNewtonTrifidNebula The Trifid Nebula, located in Sagittarius. Example of a photograph taken by world-renowned astrophotographer Jack Newton. The top navigation menu shows thumbnail views of some of Newton’s other new astrophotography available in WorldWide Telescope.

panoApollo12LandingSite Panorama of the moon near the Apollo 12 landing site. The picture was assembled in 2007at NASA’s Ames Research Center. It is based on the original photographs from the Johnson Space Center and the Lunar and Planetary Institute taken by Apollo 12 lunar module pilot Alan Bean in 1969. This is one of more than 1,000 new images added to WorldWide Telescope since it was first available in May 2008.
