People and Space: Photographs of the night sky that include people or elements that show the presence or influence of human beings
Winning Space: How America Remains a Superpowerwill make you think very differently about who and what is flying overhead at any given moment. The domain of Space is critical to our way of life in the 21st Century because we are heavily dependent on the technology and utilization of this environment."—Dr. James Rice,Senior Scientist, Planetary Science Institute Northumberlandia was named the Best Park/Community Area at Northumberland’s What’s on Where Awards 2015. Thorpe is beaming with anticipation at the idea. “It’s been such an ethereal project for so long, it seems surreal to think about it finally happening,” she says. The Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) is the leading professional membership body representing and supporting ecologists and environmental managers. Its award scheme is all about recognising positive environmental and conservation impacts across the country.

The popular community venue, owned by open space management charity the Land Trust and managed by Groundwork West Midlands, was created on the former Silverdale Colliery as part of a restoration project funded by the Homes and Communities Agency. This is a wonderfully balanced image: lots of softness without being fuzzy, and lots of colour without being harsh. It is incredible to capture the fine details (for anyone, let alone a newcomer!), and is framed well to draw the viewer in. It's a real achievement. Absolutely beautiful." But over half of the critical measurements on climate change rely on satellite data. We wouldn’t know what we know about climate change unless we were looking down at the earth from above.” Thorpe’s environmental ambitions are echoed by Paul Bate, UK Space Agency’s new chief executive. Speaking to schoolchildren in Newquay, he asked: “Do we really need to be doing this stuff in space? After all, we’ve got enough problems on Earth – we just lived through a pandemic, we’ve got a climate emergency.
There is real depth to this photo. I could stare into that ‘eye’ forever! The colours really bring out features that are not normally witnessed."The astronauts may have been on the Sea of Tranquility on the Moon,” says Sarkissian, “but it was the ocean of storms here.” One disappointment was that the first TV coverage from the Moon wasn’t in colour. That was scheduled to take place during Apollo 12. Unfortunately, when astronaut Alan Bean was setting up the camera on the lunar surface, he accidentally pointed it at the Sun and fried the electronics. Some of the winning images from the Royal Observatory Greenwich’s 14 th Astronomy Photographer of the Year competition. The selection includes the winning image by Gerald Rhemann, Disconnection Event, a rare photograph of a piece of Comet Leonard’s gas tail being disconnected and carried away by the solar wind

Thespace is laid out to create a dynamic, excitingjourney, imbued with a sense of discoveryand wonder. However, it was Gerald Rhemann's photograph, taken on Christmas Day, that really blew the judges away. We see a tightening of the Russia-China relationship,” Krolikowski says. “In the 1950s the Soviet Union provided a wide range of technical assistance to Beijing. Since the 1990s, however, the Russian space establishment has experienced long stretches of underfunding and stagnation. China now presents it with new opportunities.” The biggest challenge to US space supremacy comes not from Russia – heir to the Soviet Union’s pioneering space programme, which launched the Sputnik satellite and got the first human into space in the form of Yuri Gagarin – but from China. Along with Elba Park in Sunderland, Wellesley Woodlands in Aldershot, Silverdale in Newcastle under Lyme, Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park in Greenwich, Beam Parklands in Dagenham, plus Beaulieu, a vibrant new development in Chelmsford, Essex have all be accredited with the international quality mark for parks and green spaces.Port Sunlight River Park has been shortlisted for a Landscape Institute Award in the category of Adding Value through Landscape. The award recognises projects where landscape design has been the driver of improved cultural, social, economic or learning benefits to a community or business.
In 2011 Congress prohibited US scientists from cooperating with Beijing. Its fear: scientific espionage. Taikonauts are banned from visiting the ISS, which has hosted astronauts from 19 countries over the past 20 years. The station’s future beyond 2028 is uncertain. Its operations may yet be extended in the face of increasing Chinese competition.

Runner-up, galaxies category | Arp 271 “Cosmic Collision” by Mark Hanson and Mike SelbyNGC 5426 and NGC 5427 are two spiral galaxies of similar size engaged in a major interaction. Known collectively as Arp 271, the interaction is expected to continue for tens of millions of years. “The scale of this picture boggles the mind. The vast size of each of these spiral galaxies is almost beyond comprehension, yet here they are presented in a single stunning photograph, appearing almost to be playing with each other” – Imad Ahmed The best space documentaries let you travel to the furthest reaches of the universe without ever leaving your sofa.
