Deep space images like you've never seen them before
space.com — My wife just found some breathtaking deep space photos, and I told her that "you haven't seen nuthin' yet" I think this collection is not the biggest like the NASA one, but it has a killer interface and the photos are some of the best I've seen.

- Caiman, on 10/12/2007, -20/+7Nice, but not like I've never seen them before. Ever visit space image of the day?
- mutatron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9They're a lot bigger on Space Image of the Day too, like usually 2048x2048 at least.

this wasn't submitted just for you. there are hundreds of thousands of users on digg, you're not the only user on this site. - dolemite5005, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17http://www.space.com/php/multimedia/imagedisplay/img_display.php?pic=ig180_01_02.jpg&cap=This%20image%20resembling%20Vincent%20van%20Gogh%27s%20painting%2C%20%22Starry%20Night%2C%22%20is%20Hubble%27s%20latest%20view%20of%20an%20expanding%20halo%20of%20light%20around%20a%20distant%20star%2C%20named%20V838%20Monocerotis%20%28V838%20Mon%29.%20
Looks like goatse. - themocking, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6Space.com? that would be that last place I would think to look for good images from space.
- fernando26, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3@zaibatsu: Your wife? C'mon, everyone knows all diggers are overweight single hairy white men with geeky glasses + geeky haircut and nothing resembling a wife. That is, as long as you don't consider the frequent dates with your right hand (or left) as a common law marriage. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a meeting with my dear Jenna that I can't miss......
- itsmrdumass, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Why would you post a link and then describe it as "looks like goatse"? I don't want to see something that looks like goatse willingly.
- Tenlow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1fernando26: Be nice. I dont have glasses.

You sure showed that hussy. I hope when you were done showing her, you followed up with 'SEE! I TOLD YOU! STUPID!!'- alamandrax, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10"Killer interface"?
Seriously?
Which section of the web have you been stuck in for the last few years? - sunchild, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1"Which section of the web have you been stuck in for the last few years?"
He *is* a top digg submitter.
(Note that this comment is in reply to a comment that is the parent of the comment I want to reply to so I'm forced to copy and paste a snip of the child comment and (being a reckless kind of individual) forego the "@" clarification).

The interface sucks - fuzzmeister, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1bury
- ninefourchevo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1amazing photos but that 'photo viewer' is ungodly.
- fuzzmeister, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4They need to work on a bit of a security hole here:

Other categories here:
http://hubblesite.org/gallery/album/
Those are available in high res too.
It seems the http://images.lunarpages.com/ is unfortunately not online now when I checked, but otherwise it use to kick ass too. ;) - Farik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4A torrent for those of you who cannot stand clicking through photos in a browser. All images are 1920x1200.

Seriously...cool link (I even dug up). But the descriptions sucks. I've seen pictures like these. Hundreds and hundreds of times. - pbaehr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2http://www.space.com/images/ig308_spitzer_Stephans_Quintet_02.jpg
That's a happy looking nebula. - Azewaldo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Too bad the gallery UI sucks...
- cmw72, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"Looks like goatse."

- cvrefugee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1They should allow users to submit their own photos of space and call the site www.myspace.com
