It was an exciting year for Space. In a way they all are, cosmology is what it is - but whatever it is, it is 2014 It was exciting.
We were populated in a comet. We launched into space the ship that is going to go to Mars for the first time. China went to the Moon and India to Mars. All this Space, people are in orbit around the Earth at the International Space Station, and the stars shine on us.
And of course, NASA, ESA, ESO (European Southern Observatory) and thousands of others were there to record it all.
Here are the images from Space that set the last 12 months.
An impressive look at our Milky Way
This image shows an area of our galaxy in the constellation of Scorpio near the center of the galaxy.
Manhattan from Space
This image, taken by one of the 40 (Expedition 40) members at the International Space Station, shows a large part of New York City on 25 August 2014.
Curiosity
Curiosity has been on Mars for over 18 months - and the age it's starting to show, as is clear from the photo.
Colorful universe
Αυτή η σύνθετη εικόνα που παρείχε η NASA επιδεικνύει το ορατό και το σχεδόν υπέρυθρο φάσμα φωτός που «έπιασε» το διαστημικό τηλεσκόπιο Hubble μέσα σε ένα space εννιά ετών. Το Hubble έχει φωτογραφήσει το σύμπαν μας στις πιο πολύχρωμες στιγμές του. Ένα νέο πανόραμα της NASA, που «κοιτάει» βαθιά και μακριά στο σύμπαν για πρώτη φορά περιλαμβάνει υπεριώδες φως, το οποίο κανονικά δεν είναι ορατό στο ανθρώπινο μάτι. Η φωτογραφία απεικονίζει περίπου 10.000 πολύχρωμους γαλαξίες.
67P
Comet 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko is depicted from a distance of 285 kilometers. ESA scientists on Monday, September 15 2014, announced the point where it was to attempt the first comet pitching - a landing that was difficult but successful.
ESA lands a vessel in asteroids
The Philae Landing Vehicle is depicted as it is directed toward the 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko comet after its successful separation from the Rosetta spacecraft. ESA then landed Philae successfully, making it the first vehicle ever to be cometted.
The surface of a comet
The landing point appears at a resolution of about three meters per pixel.
Sandstorm
ESA's German astronaut, Alexander Gerst, pulled this sandblast photo over the Sahara desert from the International Space Station.
Northern lights
The North Face in a photo taken by astronaut Terry Virts at the International Space Station.
Stars
This stunning photo was taken in the Atacama Desert in Chile and shows stars over a landscape with cacti.
The Milky Way

Trouble
This image from video from NASA TV shows Orbital Sciences' unmanned Antares rocket blowing up over the launch pad at Wallops Island just six seconds after liftoff.
Or ecstasy
NASA's Orion capsule on a Delta IV rocket launches on the first unmanned test flight from Cape Canaveral.

Η NASA συγκρίνει τους worldς του ηλιακού μας συστήματος
Or we have landed on all of them.
V838 Monocerotis - 2.000 light years away
This photograph, provided by NASA and ESA, shows the most recent Hubble image of the star V838 Monocerotis, about 2.000 light years away, at the edge of the Milky Way.
Comet near Mars
This composite image from the Hubble Space Telescope captures the positions of the Siding Spring and Mars comets in a near-by-comet pass from the Red Planet, which took place on October 19.
Flowers under the "supermoon"
Flowers with a full moon background in Ghent, Belgium. The phenomenon of "supermoon" occurs when the Earth's "neighbor" appears larger and brighter than other moons when the moon's orbit brings it closer to our planet.
A paper plane in space
You have to watch the video to appreciate it, but it's a paper plane. In space.
