   Pretty impressive imagery: makes you feel tiny if you realise the sheer size of it all.

   I remember being amazed at the Horsehead Nebula when I had first seen it in some encyclopedia as a kid, how something random looks like something so real. How could that be? Only later in life I realised that these ‘horse-heads’ etc. are only horse-heads in the eye of the beholder, so to speak. (Just like the so-called face on Mars which also is some random pattern we happen to recognize as something. Man’s ability to recognize something in random patterns is both our biggest power and our Achilles-heel.)

   But still…. Space is huge and it’s pretty. :-)
