A vast collection of photographs which document the history of space travel has gone under the hammer at auction.
More than 600 images were uncovered from a number of sources, with the oldest dating back to mankind's first ventures into space.
Among the highlights was the first image ever taken of a human in space and the first ever shot of the earth rising above the moon's horizon.
