Images and Beyond!

Nasa has been having a grand time with cameras, both still and video. It's like first time parents. I'm serious, they take a picture of everything. "Oh, look, the shuttle is landing late in the second week of August instead of early in the second week of August, get a picture!"

Okay, but in their defense, most of these pictures are stunning: Pillars of Creation stunning. What's more, they tell stories spanning a 13.75 billion year epic of the violent and destructive tearing apart of nothingness that created in all its insignificant mass and paltry relevance that which we call "something." And this "something" is beautiful, and grows in beauty the more we understand about it.
