Extraordinary shot!! Beautiful here as it was more than 7000 years ago! I wonder if it's still that beautiful today?!

I always get excited when I see you've posted another astro picture. You've outdone yourself on that one.

It's a good thing we can see it as it was, because mankind will ever be able to travel that fast. Or maybe it's live view and Einstein was wrong. I still can't wrap my head around the speed of light.

There are a lot of things that I can't wrap my head around. The speed of light it just one of them! Although we will never be able to exceed the speed of light, there are some promising work-arounds. Worm holes are one of them. It involves "folded space". And I'll just leave that there, before I expose my vast ignorance of the subject.
Einstein wrong??? How dare you, kind sir!!
