That's awesome.
They have some gorgeous photos on there. This is the first DT-related one I've seen, though.

That is beautiful... I saw one that was called something like The Rose Nebula over on the SKMB... Very clearly a rose, too... I'll check and see if I can find it.
:scared: "There are more things in heaven and earth Horatio." Just in case though... If anyone finds one called The Crimson King Nebula, I'm not sure that I want to see it. :scared:

I believe you are referring to this one, called The Red Rose Nebula. It is indeed very beautiful...

Isnt it something how life imitates life?
I do wonder that if our perception
were suddenly infinate what the
organism we call the universe's
would look like? (all of it at once)
