Okay, some of you know I posted this link before, but for those who haven't you gotta see this. It's the Hubble image of M81. It's incredible. You can use the magnifier and scan around. It's like having zoom binoculars, or a microscope.
While exploring this photo, I have been amazed at how many galaxies are in it. I know this sounds dumb, but I'm going to try to count them. Any guesses? It'll take me a few days, I think. What I'd really like to do is make a small thumbnail of each one and put them all together in a huge montage. Anyway, go see it and take a guess. I'll be back in a few days.
