Most Spectacular Images from NASA [PHOTOS]

From Earth's moon to supernovas in other galaxies, astounding images of space have been released recently from NASA expeditions.

The spectacular image of five moons of Saturn, all lined up in a row, was a sight never seen before NASA’s Cassini spacecraft captured and released it this month.

The images of an asteroid caught marching across the Tadpole Nebula gives us a glorious view of the asteroid in our solar system, as well as two natural satellites orbiting above NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer streak, appearing as faint green trails.

Check out the images of the month, as released by NASA, as well as an artist's conceptualization of the electrical circuit between the planet Saturn and Enceladus, one of its moons.
