"Where in the Cosmos" Super Challenge: Answers

Image 1: Neptune's largest moon, Triton.

Just for a bit of fun and recreation in a previous post here, we took five stunning views from various places in our fabulous universe and asked you to simply decide the locations.  This little challenge was Google-free because, according to Galaxy Zoo, humans are better at recognising images and than computers!!!

It was all for a bit of fun, and we now give you the answers in the caption under each photograph. All of these fabulous images are courtesy of those lovely people at NASA and their superb Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) pages.
