Google Sky isn't everything you want, but its very useful for browsing images of the universe in relation to each other.

I kind of wish we had a wider shot. I would like to have seen more of the formation. Very interesting.

Forums typically bother me, to much pointless banter. If it is a good point then why respond to it. Everything you say is true, and of course this topic is 100% banter. It wasnt pointless, had to defend the right choice to post a perfectly decent video, with very good connections to astronomy.

I'd rather have an old star picture..... Sure you would. Then you - or someone - would start (another) thread that talks about how 'we've all seen that image before' and 'why can't TPTB at APoD find something new, that we haven't seen 100x before', etc., and the whining would continue ...... Lord.....

I agree with the black hole balance statement. I just remind myself that the internet has allowed the majority of negative people to voice their opinion, along with the unintelligible. I have APOD as my homepage, because everyday when I get to work I like some inspiration for projects and thoughts. ...

Even humans are wonders of the universe. Happiness is like gravity, pulling everyone together around a common feeling, dancing similar to the way galaxies dance around each other.

This is a great photograph. When I was in elementary school, My family lived in a remote part of Maine. One morning I was waiting for the school bus and I remember seeing the moon on the horizon and it almost filled my field of view. I couldn't look away.
