Over the years the Hubble space telescope has sent back some truly amazing pictures. Now it is in the news again for capturing 'extraordinary pictures of the universe'. they are both fantastically inspiring and at the same tie give one a sens of infinitesimal inconsequentiality. Very little can be added to the sense of awe in words, in some cases a picture truly does paint a thousand words. hence I can offer little of more worth than the wonder itself at this link

NB it is worth remarking how small a portion of the sky this image actually represents!
