Title: Awesome photo
Post by: texasmom on April 07, 2009, 09:01:20 AM
"A small, dense object only twelve miles in diameter is responsible for this beautiful X-ray nebula that spans 150 light years. At the center of this image made by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory is a very young and powerful pulsar, known as PSR B1509-58, or B1509 for short."

Astronomy reminds me of how small and unimportant we are.

Cool pic, I love seeing pics from space, and those types of stars are just amazing, if you took a sugar cube size bit of matter from it, it would weigh thousands, maybe even millions of tons.

Your right, I didn't even see that, it's the vengeful hand of God.

I love astronomy. I have a 4ft telescope with about 133 power, really awesome. To me that looks like a burning sock  :), but nonetheless really  cool looking. :aok
