18 awesome images from the 2025 Astronomy Photographer of the Year awards

Astrophotography can make you feel two very different things: tiny and insignificant in a vast universe or absolutely and complete amazed has Our vast universe. We would not blame you for feeling in both cases. We are a small occupant of a medium -sized planet in a universe made of billions of galaxies. This universe is magnificent to see.
For honored photographers during astronomy photographers of the year 2025, the universe is their muse. From our fiery sun to dazzling Aurorae, and a sparkling milky way to captivate the nebulae, the images capture our celestial district in beautiful details.
