Artifacts of infinity

You’ve likely seen the Astronomy Picture of the Day from NASA, I know I’ve linked through to it a few times, but tonight I actually started digging through the archive, and what I found was pretty awe-inspiring. Looking at photographs of galaxies and nebulas and The Grand Canyon of Mars gives me perspective, hope and humility.

Here’s a selection of my favorites so far. I’m not even halfway through 2006 yet, and the entries date back to 1995:

Inside the Eagle Nebula

A Solar Prominence from SOHO

Great Orion Nebula
