What kind of telescope/eyepiece did you use for Jupiter? that's an impressive amount of detail
Probably one of my better space photos:

i would get a telescope but living in scotland i dont think it would get much use
Wow, what telescopes are you guys using? My pictures kind of got shot down pretty quick by you all.
I would want to go to a planet that isn't earth, but when its completely devoid of life, You don't even get the feeling of a stalking predator, you just feel completely alone, which is more terrifying to me.

Scale of [I]Tyrannosaurus rex[/I] specimens found in the Hell Creek Formation, Montana.
[B]FMNH PR2081 (Sue)[/B] was discovered in 1990, and is currently on display at the Field Museum in Chicago, Illinois. She is the largest and most complete [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] to date.
[B]AMNH 5027 [/B]was the first discovered [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I], uncovered in 1908 by Barnum Brown. The species was not described until 1912, by Henry Fairfield Osborn
[B]BHI 3033 (Stan) [/B]was discovered in 1987 by the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research from South Dakota. However, the fossils were shipped and are currently on display at the Manchester University Museum in Manchester, England.
[B]BMRP 2002.4.1 (Jane) [/B]is the most controversial [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] specimen. Discovered in 2001, Jane was originally thought to be a [I]Nanotyrannus[/I] specimen, due to its small size and slender skull shape. Paleontologists debated for years, until most of the paleontological community agreed that Jane was a young [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] that had died at an early age. Jane is considered one of the key pieces in the theory of Dinosaur Ontogeny.

I'd laugh if it was the worst thing for you if you actually did that

I'm getting some major pareidolia from that. Looks so much like a person at the bottom of the cloud, with the upper torso and everything. It makes you wonder if animals experience it too.

This looks a lot like it could be an album cover, honestly. Or a wallpaper or something.

127mm mak with my DSLR attached with the sensor at the plane of focus (no eyepiece)
then took a piece of shit video and stacked the frames with software
the stupid alt-azimuth tracking means my orion nebula photo is a pile of blurry ass
Space is awesome
Those pictures are fantastic! Please post more if you have them.

andromeda if it were brighter, actual size in the night sky

Sorry, I've been a bit ill lately and I was probably feeling delirious when I wrote that. I meant a desktop background.

That's actually kind of scary looking, knowing it's heading toward us. Even if it's billions upon billions into the future.
It's almost like a symbol of inevitable doom looming over in the sky.

i remember seeing somewhere that andromeda's collision with us would have little to no effect on our particular solar system because we're such a tiny isolated group. the probability of a star actually getting within range to affect our system's gravitational field is astronomically(heh) small.
of course, our lovely milky way would be kind of rekt and wouldn't look anything like its old self.

I wouldn't have effect on most stars, with a rare exception, even for those in the center of the galaxy. Stars are extremely small and extremely far away. Nearest star to us is 4 light years. In clusters that's around 1 light year. 1 light year is 9460730472581 km, which is 6798045 times bigger than the sun diameter. And that is just the closest star, not the average. Average distance is much, much higher.
But our doom is much closer - sun will kill the earth long before Andromeda reaches us.
yeah you can't just post a pic like that and expect everyone to be a medical expert and know exactly what they're looking at.

Hey look guys, a pretty picture!
its a hand and a torso
idiots
All I got from Google is that it's a Angiograph.
They look like they would be perfect SCP articles.

Anyway the hand looks like it was drawn with that blow-ink-through-straw technique we all did in kindergarten. That's coolio
