When it started out, I was like "crappy quality," but then I factored in that Hubble was upgraded so I waited, and when it got to Messier and the pillars of creation, it was awe inspiring.

Thanks for sharing.

The ultra deep field picture is absolutely mind blowing, taken from a section of sky the size of about 1/50th of the surface of the moon..

And there is still debate whether we're the only life in the universe

Thanks gonzorama.

That is pure magnificence to my eyes. Very relaxing and spiritual at the same time.

Who knows what's going on so far aways in those galaxies...

Thanks Gonzorama! I've always loved the deep-space stuff that Hubble captures!

Does anyone else ever do this?
While staring at an image such as (my favorite) the Ultra Deep Space image, and first imagining the multitude of life surrounding just one of those tiny points of light, then all the life an interactions within a few star systems, and on and on until the image is still the same, but in your head there's just this overlaying, thin 'filter' 'veneer' or 'dust' of life moving and interacting over the top?
Basically trying to imagine the magnitude of life actually captured, from our one tiny little viewpoint, for just a moment, way out here in the Milky Way. Never to be the same! ...and on and on
(..that akward moment when you realize you've asked if anyone else thinks that extremely 'geeky' thought you do..)
