In 2003, the Hubble Space Telescope took the image of a millennium, an image that shows our place in the universe. Anyone who understands what this image represents, is forever changed by it.

Fantastic...

Greetings from Germany

Way back, a long time ago, Wiz and I used the "Deep Field" snapshot as the background for the TeAm Enterprise (Old) website.

Sometimes when I go to bed for the evening I use this picture (in my mind) to help me fall asleep.

This is a replacement for the 64MB file that started producing a 404 error. It's only 495KB but still looks pretty good.

Here is a 64MB version ... that WIZ wouldn't let me use.
I wonder why?

 

[Silverthorne]

Getting 404 with that page Smoke.

I see that ... don't know what I did wrong.

Anyway, Here is a copy located on the "gigabite/smokeball" site that is pretty good and downloads much more quickly.
