- nahsrocketeer75, on 12/03/2008, -1/+14The colors are just so *amazing* that it makes you wonder if they're real.
- mapfelzweig, on 12/04/2008, -1/+10Makes you wonder why we have to fight so much down HERE when we should really be working together to find a way to get out THERE.
- santaliqueur, on 12/04/2008, -0/+8Pass that *****.
- logload, on 12/04/2008, -0/+8they aren't
- dha07030, on 12/04/2008, -0/+7IIRC it is not the visible spectrum.
- jasdf, on 12/04/2008, -1/+6It is important to remember that these images are enhanced compilations of various wavelengths (rarely visible).
- jasdf, on 12/04/2008, -1/+5Could you imagine how wonderful it would be to float through space at a million times the speed of light? The beauty would be unbelievable.
- Fartbandit, on 12/04/2008, -0/+3false colour images sadly...
- alexkorova, on 12/04/2008, -1/+3Higher resolution, please, otherwise pretty amazing pictures.
- godmode, on 12/04/2008, -0/+2Someone give me the straight *****. Are these actual pictures or have they been altered for color or multiple exposures or something in anyway.
- onionoino, on 12/06/2008, -0/+1for a second there i thought this had something to do with star wars.
- dha07030, on 12/04/2008, -3/+4This is the closest you will get to time travel.
- Sornos, on 12/04/2008, -1/+2Stars are fairly simple on the whole. It's the small details and anomalies we don't know anything about.
- MrNexus, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1Didn't digg the article because the pictures are too small to fully appreciate them.
- Yondaime5685, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1You know I was just about to say the same thing. It makes me wonder about the education level of the person who wrote that. Hopefully it was just a mistake.
- Katistrofik, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1Anyone else think this was about movie stars like Marlon Brando?
- Modiga, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1I think what happens is the telescopes pick up radio wave images over a particular range. Let's say between 10 meters and 10² meters. This range is then mapped onto the visible spectrum so that what was emitting light with a wavelength of 10² meters shows up as purple and the light that was emitting a wave length of 10 meters shows up red. Basically, it's shifting the non-visible recorded light across so that it lies on the visible part.
- AmnesiacJack, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1I think that should say 100 billion stars in our GALAXY.
- Yondaime5685, on 12/04/2008, -0/+0What do you mean what now..? I guess you are one of those people who are satisfied with current knowledge. Where would human progression be if there were more people like you? I'm guessing we would still be foraging for food wearing animal skin.
Idiot! - disraeligears54, on 12/04/2008, -4/+3This is so cool I don't even care that it's a slide show.
- Boagrius, on 12/04/2008, -5/+3*****! I thought this was the title to the new Journey album! Damn you DIGG!
- ielephant, on 12/04/2008, -5/+1Now that we know the birth, life and death of stars, what now?
- jassie51289, on 12/04/2008, -5/+0this is awesome! i love the universe,well.. maybe the multiverse... conspiracy theories rock!
- inactive, on 12/04/2008, -5/+0PENISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
