A Romp in Russia


A polar bear cub plays near his mother at the Moscow Zoo.




Moonshot


Flying at nearly 35,000 feet, a jet passes over the disk of a winter half moon above Boston on January 3, 2003. The jet leaves contrails in its wake due to the temperature difference between the hot engine exhaust and the cold air.





Red Square Reflection


The Kremlin's Spassky Tower and passers-by are reflected in the wet cobblestones of Moscow's Red Square on February 13, 2003.




A Galaxy's Sharp Edge


An image produced by the Hubble Space Telescope, released March 1, 2003, shows a perfect "edge-on" perspective of the galaxy NGC 4013, with huge clouds of dust and gas extending above the galaxy's main disk.






Light of the World


This composite image shows what Earth looks like at night. City lights highlight developed areas of the planet.




Mother and Child


An ethnic Albanian refugee from Selce, Macedonia, and her child look through the window of a bus as they arrive in Prizren in Kosovo on March 27, 2003, after fleeing the fighting in Macedonia two days earlier.
 




A Useful Lesson


A German Shepherd named Pepper sits with two endangered Bengal tiger cubs and a cougar cub, far right, at the home of veterinarian Rob Zammit outside Sydney, Australia.







Great White Whale


A beluga whale swims in a tank at the Vancouver Aquarium.




Puppy Love


Crystal, a year-old black Labrador-Dalmatian mix, peers through a heart-shaped hole in a fence.




The Gathering Storm


Dark clouds roll over Blair, Neb., on May 9, 2003, bringing thunder and flashes of lightning.




The Little Duckling Who Could


Mallard ducklings wait their turn May 14, 2003 as a sibling struggles to make it up a curb in South Bend, Ind. The mother, who had already cleared the obstacle, flirted with traffic for 20 minutes before leading her offspring safely across the busy road.





 


 


Mid-East Flare-Up

A Palestinian youth uses a slingshot to fire stones at Israeli soldiers from behind a barricade of burning tires May 23, 2003.


 




Rainbow Times Two

Fury From Above

Lightning ripples over the Bass Performance Hall in Fort Worth, Texas, on June 14, 2003.







Grand Old Night


Tanner Mann, 8, of Hortonville, Wis., gets a good seat on top of his mother's car July 4, 2003 for the fireworks show at Riverside Park in New London.







Un-Bear-Able Heat


Koluk the polar bear goes headfirst into the pool at the Albuquerque Rio Grande Zoo in Albuquerque, N.M., on July 15, 2003.







Stellar Light Show


From ground-based telescopes, the "ant nebula" resembles the head and thorax of a garden ant.
