Haven't been on the APOD site for a while, but this image lept out at me.
Can you place the nebula (as we would normally view it) in this amazing image.:duh: :duh:

You are not wrong Tony. This is a simply breathtaking image! It reminds me of some exquisitely patterned marble I have seen, though this looks like a thin, backlit slice. Just stunning!

Hi All,

continuing on from the day befores Hubble image is this.

A zoomable panoramic image - a broadband connection is prefrable.

Yeah, I love the way that you don't lose resolution as you zoom in.

Waaaa, waaaa! Sob! No broadband here, only satellite, and a low monthly limit at that. Waaaa!

Ah well! As a work computer, we can't expect anything else. At least we don't pay for what we do use!

Still, waaaaa, waaaaa!
