RE: Interesting Hubble images from Space.com....
From: Gary Nunn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] This image comes in 7 different flavors, depending on your connection speed. I downloaded the 2.49 mb .JPG file and am currently downloading the 76 MB TIFF file. If you have the connection speed (or patience) and your PC has the resources to open these larger images, they are definitely worth looking at. The sheer number of galaxies that are visible behind this galaxy is incredible. Very, very cool. I think I know what my new wallpaper is going to be! Thanks for posting it. - jmh ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

Is the supernova they are talking about in the upper right galaxy? If not, what is it? And why does that bright image in the upper right and the red star in the middle right haverays?in the image? Most everything is a pin point of light, except for those two sources. Kevin T. - VRWC ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

From: Kevin Tarr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I downloaded it at work, the big picture. I have two questions. Is the supernova they are talking about in the upper right galaxy? If not, what is it? The supernova was in the main galaxy but it was awhile back (10 years ago?). It had faded by the time the Hubble took this picture. There's another picture on the site that compares a ground-based photo with the Hubble pic. The supernova is evident in the ground-based photo but not in this one. Don't know about the others... - jmh ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
