Miss Frye over at Observations at Missy’s Window is hosting the latest Carnival of Space.

Damn they shrink fast. Im glad I read about the feather and the hammer today, I’d never heard of that. Cool to see.

Thanks for the reminder. CICLOPS’s high resolution mosaic is very nice too. I tend to rate many of the images as a 10…I suppose they need a scale of: cool, very cool, extremely cool, and out of this world stunning.
