Space Dust. Awesome Picture
« on: March 05, 2008, 12:27:31 PM »
In a photo provided by NASA , new stars peek out from beneath a blanket of dust in this image of the Rho Ophiuchi dark cloud from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. Called "Rho Oph" by astronomers, it's one of the closest star-forming regions to our own solar system, about 407 light years away from Earth. (AP/NASA)
:D Weee

This composite photo provided by NASA shows a powerful jet from a supermassive black hole blasting a nearby galaxy in the system known as 3C321. This galactic violence, never seen before, could have a profound effect on any planets in the path of the jet and trigger a burst of star formation in the wake of its destruction. (AP/NASA)

You need to get a telescope your self and learn to use it.  Photographs are great, but seeing through a great telescope is some much better.
