I can't write well, so here is a picture instead. It makes a good wallpaper because it is blackish and desktop icons show well. I made it for myself but decided it was worth sharing. It is maybe what a night sky looks to a fox, except the fox can probably see more stars than what I show. In the original if you enlarge it to full size more stars show themselves, as in nature. I remember one late night while traveling the toll roads, I stopped at a unlighted rest area and I was shocked to see more stars than I ever have before. I also used to fish at nioght, and after an hour ones eyes diolate and the night sky shows more of its unlimited treasures.

That's absolutely beautiful, Dave! Yes, I would indeed call that poetry.

It does make an outstanding wallpaper, I have it on my desktop now and it's breathtaking.

Thank you, Dave!

That is awesome fishead. That brings back memories of when I lived in Wyoming. The night sky is so full of stars in Wyoming. Because of light polution, we can't see nearly as many stars here in Florida...

Thats great, you're using my wallpaper.

I found this movie and I'll put it here. I read a ton of books on cosmology over several years, and well, this movie says it all, pretty much. If you don't have time to take the learning journey about time and space, just watch this and you'll maybe have a little understanding about the universe we share-

Watch it using quicktime or it won't play the movie. Wait for the ad to finsh. Its worth watching.

Awesome, fishead. And mind boggling. There are a lot more facinating videos to look at there.

Thanks
