This infrared photograph was taken by the Spitzer Space Telescope. “The region pictured here is immense, with a horizontal span of 890 light-years and a vertical span of 640 light-years. Earth is located 26,000 light-years away, out in one of the Milky Way’s spiral arms. Though most of the objects seen in this image are located at the galactic center, the features above and below the galactic plane tend to lie closer to Earth.” – Click to enlarge, or click here for a super high resolution version (29MB).
Yes, yes I would.
At first I was wondering why he photoshopped his head onto a sheep’s body, and why the sheep was wearing socks. Then I saw his last name is Lamb. That still doesn’t explain the socks though. Maybe they’re supposed to be space boots. A sheep with a man’s head wearing space boots…in space.
Yes, this is actually a photograph of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. This was taken on May 12th, 24 hours after the launch of Atlantis, and it’s half way to the Hubble Telescope. Amazing.
The photo below is also of Atlantis, but take a closer look. There are two objects. One, Atlantis, the second is the Hubble Telescope. This photo was taken just minutes before Atlantis finally caught up with Hubble.
Both of these photos were taken from the Kennedy Space Center, by Thierry Legault. Check out the full photos, in all of their glory, over at Nasa’s flickr page.
Here’s a high resolution photo taken during the repair spacewalk. These photos are instantly classic, and are definitely some of the most exciting and interesting space photos I’ve seen. Click on it to check out the full photo over at nasa.gov.
I know a lot of people probably haven’t even heard of this movie. Well, here it is.
Moon stars Sam Rockwell as Sam Bell; a man who’s been living on the Moon for 3 years, mining the gas Helium 3. Helium 3 is the answer to Earth’s energy crisis. Why is one man doing this, and not an entire team to get it done faster? Beats me.
As you can see from the trailer, he obviously begins to become insane from being alone for so long. If the only physical contact you had in 3 years was a computer named GERTY, you might go a little crazy too.
Moon has been rounding all the film festivals this year, and is set for a limited release in theaters on June 12th in the United States. So, if you’re not lucky enough to catch this one in theaters, you’ll probably be waiting for the DVD.
Make sure you watch the trailer above, then check out the poster below…
