    @Timetraveller: You can find the name of the photo in the URL, e.g.

    “Pillars of Creation”.

    We’ll have a more “usable” system set up soon :)

    Eggnebula and boomerangnebula are beautiful, but scary. I don’t like to think about the universe and the size of it. Scares me.

    Amazing, hard to believe these are real photos.
    It’s great to see the science fiction we create, can actually be found out there.

    Why don’t you mention that these pictures are enhanced and the colors are dubbed in representing different elements or compounds, or is the truth too boring for publication.

    Very nice collection! Long live Hubble! If the last set of components lasted this long, hopefully many more wonderful images of the universe will come back in the next ten years. Then, put that in the Smithsonian!
