Reminds me of a horizontal lava lamp.

Nature and Science both need the silence to be looked at and admired…
Those pictures were breathtaking, and nothing is as wonderful as taking a moment and sitting silently in among nature

Wow! Now I know where Andy Partridge of XTC got the line “and I don’t want to see your mooney mooney face” in the song “Another Satellite.”

The Genetics Society of America gives out awards for the best published Drosophila images each year. You can view the finalists from 2004 here:
http://www.drosophila-conf.org/genetics/gsa/dros/dros2004/2004-image_awards.shtml

These images are especially neat because they haven’t been doctored (or, at least, they should not have been doctored) because doctored images cannot pass peer review. The colors all come from techniques such as flourescent tags on proteins or antibody staining visualized with special imaging technologies.

Great idea. Your choice is my favorite image. It should be accompanied with your Cassini Saturn sounds.

beautiful examples of “visual” science art. But there are other not so visible examples of science art, like Maxwell equations for example, is like all Beethoven’s symphonies in just four lines!!

That was truly inspiring and… oh dear Flying Italian Food Monster is that Einstein with a woman’s body? You know, you can’t claw out your mind’s eye! Thanks for that image!

But really, that was very lovely. Incidentally, my personal favorite is that “blooming” rock formation.
