Check out this totally breathtaking image of Jupiter and two of its moons, Io and Ganymede — it's not just an astounding image, it's also officially the coolest astronomy photo of 2011, according to the Royal Observatory's annual contest.

It's the work of British photographer Damian Peach, and it also won the "Our Solar System" category. The winners in the "Deep Space" and "Earth and Space" categories are also amazing to behold, and so are the runners-up.
