Dec 24 Micheal said he saw an angel & maybe Jesus in the hubble mosaic .
I see the from left to right at least four distinct figures on the left I see a skull,then i see a winged figure ,then I see a face like a demon it has his shoulders and collar bones . then i can see a small hooded skull kind of like the grim reaper.
If you look around you can make out smaller skulls .
The mossaic kind of looks like the gates of hell opened .
This is the same picture titled carina. o.k. what else can anyone see?

Much as I like being on the 2007 runner-up list, colleagues and I made the image of the Earth in way back in 2002. We’ve made a few similar images more recently:

That last image reminds me of Crow on MST3K:

“And there’s the Earth the way we left it, with the USA IN CHARGE!”

All the pics are wonderful, but the pic of Iapetus blew me away…
Until that last one of Earth. After travelling through the solar system and to the depths of the universe, it’s good to be home!

BTW, I followed the Earth link, and there’s an image of the eastern hemisphere there as well as the western hemis BA posted. Be sure to check it out!

I love the brilliant blue of the picture of Earth. I think that might be my new favorite color!

That last one always gets me. To think we may be destroying our own existance on this blue pearl just hurts.

The only thing more beautiful would be the same motif just substituted with an exoplanet. That would be truly profound.

I love your pick of these pictures. I dont think I could ever choose a top ten. Many times I visit the hubble site and just totally lost in the beauty that excists on that sight. I can spend hours there and I never get any work done.

I really like the “mooncrane” picture I wish I could be that creative.

Wow, awesome pictures. I’ve got most of ‘em on my blog, but I think we have a habit of looking and quickly dismissing the latest, greatest news in search of the next big breakthrough. Iapetus definitely should have been in the Top Ten though!

Oh well… it’s been a great year for discoveries. I’m looking forward to next year.

Your final runner-up “Home” just happens to be my current wallpaper.

I’m sure it was a tough job narrowing it down to just 10.

The Helix Nebula reminds me of the Chapa Eye in SG1. I wonder if we’ll ever see evidence of a wormhole? Hey, after finding such for the existence of dark matter, we can dream, right?

Hope your holidaze are good.

Peace,

The moon on a crane picture proves that not only the moon hoax is real but also that the moon itself is a government conspiracy!
