    The Hubble Deep Field view picture is my favorite. first time i saw it i remember feeling so completely small and insignificant in the grand scheme of the universe. when you realise thats only a 4 inch area of DARK space (from earth's perspective) and that your mind cannot even comprehend how big the universe truly is. it left quite an impression on me.

    Got to agree with those above. This really is a great article. Some of the images which hubble provides us are absolutely magnificent. I encourage everyone to get behind this series of articles and to lend a hand if you too feel that this is particularly interesting!

    Looking forward to the next article. Smile
