7/15 Cornell's Alex Hayes, who chaired the selection panel:
"The outer solar system is kind of the last frontier. You think you know how something works until you send a spacecraft there, and then you realize you had no idea."

A stunning long-exposure photograph captures Comet NEAT (C/2001 Q4) as a greenish smudge in the western sky above the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Bright star Sirius is visible near the horizon, with countless fainter stars and a cloud bank completing the scene. This image was taken on May 5th, showcasing a rare opportunity to view this comet with the naked eye.

False-color image of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, taken by Voyager 1 on November 12, 1980. The image shows Titan's hazy orange atmosphere with layers of blue haze above, taken from a distance of about 22,000 kilometers. This view reveals the moon's unique atmospheric composition, similar to early Earth.

A Voyager 2 image of Neptune showcasing two dark spots, the Earth-sized Great Dark Spot and Dark Spot 2, along with a bright cloud feature known as the Scooter. These are high-pressure anti-cyclones in Neptune's atmosphere. The image shows the planet's characteristic blue hue due to methane in its atmosphere.

Voyager 2 captured this stunning image of Neptune's atmosphere two hours before its closest approach in 1989. High-altitude, light-colored cirrus clouds and their shadows are visible, a first for the time. The blue color results from methane absorbing red light, and the planet boasts the fastest winds in our solar system.
