- IxGLSxI, on 10/13/2008, -0/+31No matter how many times I see space images, I can never get over how surreal they look.
- Elildo, on 10/13/2008, -0/+11prettier than births of humans
- AmyVernon, on 10/13/2008, -0/+7That's gorgeous....
- RealmDown, on 10/15/2008, -0/+5It's better than politics.
- RealmDown, on 10/15/2008, -0/+5If you're polite, you'll say it barely looks 290.
- geeshock, on 10/15/2008, -1/+5Posting NASA images is getting to be a regular occurence around here.
- andywj, on 10/15/2008, -0/+3Doesn't matter how many times I look at them I can't help but think that we're not alone in all this space
- yngtimmy, on 10/15/2008, -0/+3I like when they're young ;)
- JoeHammer, on 10/15/2008, -1/+4NASA - Employing the best Photoshopers since 1956.
- kevlar21, on 10/15/2008, -0/+2This is very similar to the default Mac OS 10.5 desktop
- mistertrogdor, on 10/15/2008, -0/+2"An extraterrestrial visitor examining the differences among human societies would find those differences trivial compared to our similarities.
Our lives, our past and our future are tied to the sun, the moon and the stars...We humans have seen the atoms which constitute all of nature and the forces that sculpted this work...and we, who embody the local eyes and ears and thoughts and feelings of the cosmos, have begun to wonder about out origins...star stuff contemplating the stars, organized collections of ten billion billion billion atoms, contemplating the evolution of nature, tracing that long path by which it arrived at consciousness here on the planet earth...Our loyalties are to the species and to the planet. Our obligation to survive and flourish is owed not to just ourselves but also to that cosmos ancient and vast from which we sprung.
We are one species.
We are star stuff harvesting star light."
-Carl Sagan
1934-1996
Carl Sagan was from space. - WesleyD, on 10/15/2008, -0/+2Probably like a fart.
- pauls88, on 10/15/2008, -0/+2don't get me wrong I wasn't bad mouthing it, its just something i noticed.
great picture, much better than politics. - Komodork, on 10/15/2008, -0/+2Hubble is broken, won't send signal back home!
- Versh, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Exactly.
Try to think of Digg as "bookmarked page reminder," a weekly alert to websites you already frequent, but to have yet seen the content added recently. For example, today's Wednesday, so you can expect the xkcd comic to be on the front page regardless of the subject matter. - gipster, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Gee I wonder what it looks like now since what we are seeing is 3,000 years old.
Always stunning pics. - MrMysterious, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Images like this always makes our little rock feel so tiny.
- ginandjuice, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1If the sky was that pretty all the time..
- slapded, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Its great to know that i'm made of stardust. It is also good to know that white castle is also made of stars.
In fact, just thinking about those tender little White Castle burgers with those little, itty-bitty grilled onions that just explode in your mouth like flavor crystals every time you bite into one... just makes me want to burn this ***** down. Come on, Pookie, let's burn this ***** down! Come on, Pookie! Let's burn it, Pookie! - thealsir, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1What's amazing is, you can't even see these stars in visible light because they're obscured by the cloud of gas around them. Makes the image that much more surreal.
- Stiles05s, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1reminds of me of Leopard
- chirpygimp, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1My God! It's full of stars!
- r0ji, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1That's for you creationists! Eat a big bag of *****.
- ginandjuice, on 10/20/2008, -0/+1Thats not what I meant..
- pauls88, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Digg's obligatory weekly star picture
nice. - igeek1, on 10/16/2008, -0/+1Apparently some people prefer to believe in a talking snake.
- captnkurt, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1FTA: "This arc is made up primarily of organic compounds called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons..."
Aromatic? What does it smell like, I wonder? - captnkurt, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Star farts!
- gann, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1Star child
- WesleyD, on 10/15/2008, -0/+1If the field has grass on it, play ball!
/initializing preparations for being dugg down in 3... 2... - Dugglous, on 10/16/2008, -0/+0If only they came in higher resolution.....
- catxk, on 10/15/2008, -2/+2That's..... probably because the image is a computer generated image based on gibberish radio waves, sort of like an artists impression of static.
- japisda, on 07/13/2009, -0/+0Just over 800 diggs and 30 comments? I guess people aren't really interested in the past... coz it's way too long long long agooooo... Or is it because of the creationism vs. evolutionism debate?
http://www.2theprinter.com/ - dlite922, on 10/16/2008, -1/+1this picture wouldn't have been dugg. Why would anyone dugg a pic of a blue sky for example?
- Garofoli, on 10/13/2008, -1/+1The final... er, first frontier... How majestic.
- rettutrel, on 03/09/2009, -0/+0The bright red bowl, or arc, seen in this image traces the outer surface of the dense dust cloud encasing the young stars. This arc is made up primarily of organic compounds called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which glow on the surface of the cloud. Ultraviolet light from a nearby bright star outside of the image is "eating away" at these molecules. Eventually, this light will destroy the dust envelope and the masked young stars will emerge.

- fuzzy889, on 10/15/2008, -7/+3Wow, that's completely uninteresting. NASA needs to stop taking pictures and start terraforming *****.
