Space Rules!

Cosmic cluster: An image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope shows the Helix nebula, a cosmic starlet often known for its vivid colors and resemblance to a giant eye. The nebula, located about 700 light-years away in the constellation Aquarius, belongs to a class of objects called planetary nebulae.

So by the time the photo got back to us the nebula would have formed into a new mundane star...

How big is that - I can't see it in the sky? And I think I would have noticed its kinda red and stuff.

I wonder if we'll see evidence of life on other planets during our lifetime?

Think they'll be like E.T. or like the aliens from War of the Worlds?

Hmmmmm

I'm trying to pick out the crazy woman astronaut in this photo. Is she in here somewhere?

Hey! Happy Valentines day Jenny! Hugs and smooches.
