5. I can't get it to load
I have a fast computer and cable access. SO it should load fairly quickly.

13. Screw beauty, what we REALLY need is a Space Laser.
:eyes: Seriously, it's gorgeous. But weren't the GOP pushing to get rid of Hubble? I thought I read that somewhere...

16. Yeah, they are.
Make it kinda hard to push the Earth as the center of the universe with pictures like these.

17. It was the director of NASA
I think he's a Puke, but his rationale was that the Hubble is wearing out and it would be a costly and dangerous mission to do the repairs. He's been catching a lot of flak for that and it doesn't seem partisan; it seems that even being a Puke doesn't disqualify one from appreciating the wonders of Hubble. That telescope has touched many a heart.

25. These beautiful photos are humbling in a very positive way...
Looking at these photos, one is struck by the enormity and complexity of the universe. Our activities and concerns here on Earth seem rather simple in contrast.

Thanks so much for posting this -- :toast:
