Artifacts of infinity
Posted by Lena on 2nd November 2008
It’s been quite some time, but in light of National Blog Posting Month (aka NaBloPoMo), I figure I have a new excuse to recommit to macroblogging (those of you who follow me on twitter know I microblog FAR too much already :P). A lot has changed in the past 6 months, but I’ll get into that later 
For now, something extraordinary and beautiful.
You’ve likely seen the Astronomy Picture of the Day from NASA, I know I’ve linked through to it a few times, but tonight I actually started digging through the archive, and what I found was pretty awe-inspiring. Looking at photographs of galaxies and nebulas and The Grand Canyon of Mars gives me perspective, hope and humility.
Here’s a selection of my favorites so far. I’m not even halfway through 2006 yet, and the entries date back to 1995:
-
- Inside the Eagle Nebula
-
- A Solar Prominence from SOHO
-
- Witch Head Nebula
-
- The Orion Nebula
-
- Great Orion Nebula
-
- N44 Superbubble
