APOD 1.4


See Explanation.  Clicking on the picture will download
 the highest resolution version available.

The image you see above was comprised of 100 images taken by the Hubble Space Telescope (the image above is not something that actually exists in the universe).  All of the images included in this masterpiece were taken in the realm of the space around Earth.  Each image was resized into identical dimensions in order to be combined into such a work of art.  I think it looks really beautiful and each little image is perfectly assembled.  The person(s) who worked on this image were clearly hardworkers and I really appreciate their work. Unfortunately we have not yet seen anything in the universe that actually resembles the resulting image but who knows!!  I chose this apod for my blog post because it involved so much creativity and work and I just truly appreciate all the time that was put into this project.  Well done astro people, well done. 

Godspeed,
Melanie
