A Galaxy Far, Far Away

The iconic Horsehead Nebula stands out against a backdrop of Milky Way stars & distant galaxies, photographed in a new infrared light using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope in commemoration of the famous observatory's launch.

Re: A Galaxy Far, Far Away

That's an amazing image

It was the anniversary of the Hubble Telescope either the day or day after the picture was taken, but, I don't recall how many years it has been.

msn comes up with some great pictures of all kinds of interesting things

When I first saw the picture out of the corner of my eye, I thought it was a fetus.

The one part close to the bottom looks like a big baby foot.

Re: A Galaxy Far, Far Away

That's not a galaxy, that's just a big ugly blob. Why is the guy pointing at it though?
