    FUND NASA!

    this is an awesome gallery they put up, well worth the time to browse! Gorgeous.
  • b04rdb4be, on 07/29/2008, -1/+7Sweet idea: hopefully there's captions for the average joe.
  • Clocked, on 07/30/2008, -0/+4seriously though, link to an article that links to an article???? c'mon there's entirely one too many click in that especially when its the nasa page that's launching and not the other one...
  • cadmiumpaint, on 07/30/2008, -1/+4I don't mind my tax dollars being spent on this.

    Interface is a bit funky with the scroll wheel zoom in zoom out....will take a while to get used to. I like how you can DL images.

    thumbs up.
  • hotlatte, on 07/30/2008, -1/+4Yeah. We'd all rather see garbage from the huffingtonpost.com on the FP. Dork.
  • frozensnake, on 07/30/2008, -1/+4now which one to make my background
  • Retrospekt, on 07/30/2008, -2/+5NASA is doing everything great right now.
  • Clocked, on 07/30/2008, -0/+2thanks, I hate articles that serve only to link to other articles, hopefully people who do this will stop....
  • ryleyleckie, on 07/30/2008, -0/+2everything except getting to mars faster
  • Clocked, on 07/30/2008, -0/+2I for one will digg your article and bury this one...
  • beermaker, on 07/30/2008, -1/+3these guys rocks!
  • ryleyleckie, on 07/30/2008, -1/+3great way to raise the public's interest in NASA and space.
  • cadmiumpaint, on 07/30/2008, -0/+2too bad we don't get a say in how are tax dollars are spent....

    interesting to see what our country would be like if you could check off little boxes on your tax forms saying where to send your money.


  • brianpeiris, on 07/30/2008, -1/+3This is great.
    Also: thank you NASA, for not using Flash and sticking to standards!
  • krolm, on 07/30/2008, -1/+2awesome!
  • koolgiy, on 07/30/2008, -1/+2Gah, when are they going to put up good footage. Like some of that footage Discovery Channel restored for their 'When We Left Earth' documentary?
  • lornali, on 07/30/2008, -1/+2Great news.
  • tushyd, on 07/30/2008, -0/+1Why wouldn't you just link directly to the NASA portal?
  • carolyn05, on 07/30/2008, -1/+1This is a brilliant idea NASA will do..
  • vroom101, on 07/30/2008, -1/+1No.
  • ShoesChrist, on 07/30/2008, -1/+0The title makes it sound as if it links directly to the pictures, but instead links to a story about the pictures. Boourns.
  • stephenmeb, on 07/30/2008, -3/+2Is this the end of APOD?
  • Spetz, on 07/30/2008, -5/+4Shame really. I submitted the direct link last week or something. I don't game the system so it didn't get the FP and I even submitted after the launch of the recommendation engine? Some blog spam that even forces me to view an advert when I click the link gets FP of digg?
