There are dozens of spacecraft orbiting our solar system. NASA and ESA take many photographs of Earth, Mercury, the Moon, Mars, Saturn and other planets. Inside this post you can see the most recent pictures from around our solar system. Some of them are closely scaled, others are millions of kilometers afar which makes them ever more fantastic and amazing.
