hubble takes it to a new level

"Astronomers at the Space Telescope Science Institute today unveiled the deepest portrait of the visible universe ever achieved by humankind. Called the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF), the million-second-long exposure [eleven days] reveals the first galaxies to emerge from the so-called "dark ages," the time shortly after the big bang when the first stars reheated the cold, dark universe."

Pictures like that make me I wish I were the hubble telescope... or something.

yup, eleven days. the real question here is what hip things were you busy doing during those eleven days. i for one was very busy power shopping for some checkered vans at the mall. i think my hip count just took a hit.

Dang!! Eleven day exposure?! That's awesome (not a hip thing to say).
