Eye of God

This is a picture taken by NASA with the Hubble telescope. They are referring to it as the "Eye of God". I thought it was quite stunning and definitely worth sharing.

The image depicts the so-called Helix Nebula, described by astronomers as "a trillion-mile-long tunnel of glowing gases." At its center is dying, Sun-like star which has ejected masses of dust and gas to form tentacle-like filaments stretching toward an outer rim composed of the same material. The Sun itself may look like this in several billion years.

Cheers, Martin :cool:
 
The first time I saw it, I thought it was pretty - now it's just creeping me out ...

shudders
 
I'm suddenly reminded of the hypnotist from Little Britain.

'Look into my eyes, look into my eyes. Don't look around my eyes, look into my eyes. In a moment you will be taken with the overwhelming desire to send all your money to Litany. Three two one, you're back in the room.'
 
It kinda reminds me of the ring Wabbit left in my toilet bowl. :eek:

I think it's those damn Mexican carrots :D

My grandmother DID not! We keep her locked in the attic and feed her on fish heads!

Where I come from, that's fighting talk. Well, actually, where I come from "let's fight" is fighting talk.

Beware my hamsters of fury!
