nomadpete Posted Wednesday at 09:58 AM Posted Wednesday at 09:58 AM Random thought.... "If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music. -Albert Einstein" Who would have thought that he was actually a violinist? 2
nomadpete Posted Wednesday at 10:39 AM Posted Wednesday at 10:39 AM “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread...nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’” - Isaac Asimov 1 1 1
spacesailor Posted Friday at 11:18 PM Posted Friday at 11:18 PM Andromeda. Our neighbour!. Nasa.gov/mission/hubble/messier31 A great picture of Andromeda, taken ten years in the making it must be the biggest photo of all . spacesailor
onetrack Posted Saturday at 05:03 AM Posted Saturday at 05:03 AM It loaded for me. Some of the star cluster photos are stunning, but the problem is, they're all "touched up" with color and contrast manipulation. The originals are pretty different to what we're presented with.
red750 Posted Saturday at 05:43 AM Posted Saturday at 05:43 AM Tried again. Took 50 seconds to display a small image. Tried to zoom/enlarge it, 50 seconds till a "Page unresponsive" message displayed. 1
