....congratulate the fellas who just fiksed up the Hubble telescope while wearing a massive pressurised spacesuit and dangling at the end of a bit of string miles up in the sky.

Good job everybody!

In April 1995, the Hubble Space Telescope took this picture of the centre of the Eagle nebula. It is one of the most famous pictures made by the Hubble Space Telescope. It revealed huge columns of hydrogen with a length of several light years. Many stars are forming inside these huge columns which are being blasted by intense radiation from many of the nearby stars.

Thats one of my favorite Hubble photos. I have used several as desktops over the last few year.

Also Jonwin and I have a thick folder of Hubble prints that are free for the taking at Balticon each year. Living near the the Hubble Space Institute has benefits. I use to walk along the road past the Institute when I took bus home from my daughter's school.
