Isn't that amazing? I envy those who live in areas with air clean enough to allow one to see even a tease of the Milky Way...

We have some areas around my neck of the woods where you can see alot, but not that much, that is insane!

Very amazing:shock:
Go up into the mountains, above the smog and you can probably see cool stuff too:ror:

We live at the base of a 7000' mountain and have drove up to the summit and set my telescope up and have seen some amazing stuff in the night sky"thumbsup"

Thats just one of the reasons I love the fact that I got the hell out of the city. Unless there is cloud cover, I get a damn good view of the stars. "thumbsup"

First, education. But, soon... "thumbsup"

I doubt that's from a camera. It's probably a telescope photo. None the less, its amazing.

The tag at the bottom of the photo says "Hubble". "thumbsup"

you need to click the gif. it explains the picture, that picture is a small spot in the sky where no stars could be seen, and in that hubble picture is 10,000 galaxies, and each galaxy has up to one trillion stars.

And there's probably a civilization more advanced than ours in of those galaxies8)

its impossible to think it cant be true.

Blasphemy! :evil:






:ror:

Don't blame me.... Carl Sagan said some crap like that in his book:ror:

I know. I just like saying that word. :ror:

Besides, I don't remember "thou shalt not believe in visitors from other celestial bodies" in the bible...

Carl is (was) the man. Which book are you refering to? I've got "the Pale Blue Dot".

Cosmos:ror:

Beside, God probably figured out how bad we fawked up our planet and went and tried again somewhere else.... far enough away so we can't fawk them up like we did ourselves:mrgreen::ror:

That show sucks.

You mean "V"?

Definately wasn't the greatest.

No. X, their cousins Y and Pi. Who do ya think I'm talking about?

Step off son, I ain't in the mood for your mental fisticuffs. :ror:

:ror:
Thanks for the sig.
