Any bruising should be reported to your Doctor if you didn't know how it got there.

Are you familiar with the Astronomy Picture of the Day site - APOD for short, TL?

The first image at the top indicates there is yet another comet coming out of the main asteroid belt around October 19th.

I saw that and yes, they have some great pics also.  There are other links that take you to live views of space also...that are awesome....

Yup. I love that site. I've used a few images from Hubble and other 'publicly owned' (government) as backgrounds. Those are public domain. Not so with the ones by private telescopes and astronomers. Those images are copyrighted to them. Always interesting information and links with the images, definitely!

That was absolutely awesome.   And to think we are the "Greatest" thing since Peanut Butter is nuts.  Look at what is out there and tell me someone is not looking at us and scratching their heads at how much we have accomplished and how little we've learned.

I love that bit of music - an absolute 'modern classic' if you ask me. And yes, the comet images with it are spectacular. What is 'out there' is so very awesome and transfixing - how could anyone NOT look at it and realize how insignificant we really are in the whole scheme of things? I often envy our ancient ancestors who had no light pollution and could see stories taking place every night in the heavens. I can understand their awe and even fear, because our galactic neighborhood has calmed down a lot since then. They could see much more clearly than we can.

We are pathetic in what we have accomplished and what we haven't learned. There is no such thing as a 'war to end all wars'. But somehow we fail to see it's just one after another for thousands and thousands of years. As someone who shall go un-named once said "Man is so infinitely great....Man is so infinitely small."

So, Sidherose, is it alright to download pictures from APOD?

You can download all the images you want, Nitab. Just don't use any of the ones that are credited to people and have a copyright with them - or if you do, then give credit to them like using any other image...unless it says "All rights reserved". If it says that, then you cannot use them at all. The Hubble images are public domain. 

But you can also use them as reference to make your own in PSP or PShop with brushes. :)

Some of those images are really, really huge Nitab - like 5000 plus pixels - so be sure to look at the size they are before you use them. You might need to reduce the size.

A new comet  :woohoo:
I see for asteroid of this week-end too. But french article is strong: 2014 RC will pass at a distance of one tenth of the distance between Earth and Sun. For them, the distance between Earth and Sun is 400 000km  :tearlaugh: immediate tanning!
Journalists are strange, and forget that is Moon at this distance rounded
