Space Images

The Bruce Murray Space Image Library is a unique collection – recent and past photos and videos from the world’s space agencies, artwork, diagrams, and amateur-processed space images. Bruce Murray, Planetary Society cofounder and emeritus director of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, insisted that planetary missions take photos for the public as well as for scientists. Bruce literally helped change our picture of the solar system.

Browse by clicking on an icon, then sort by date and keywords. Look at pictures taken of a place or look at pictures taken from a place. Videos are marked with a blue arrow. Or, take a remarkable journey through space with images created by amateurs. The main thing is, enjoy!
