I love looking at these. What blows me away is the fact that we are looking back in time millions and millions of years...
i remember talking aout space used to make my brain hurt in physics at school - just tooooo big to think about. apparently the human brain cant comprehend anything bigger than our eye's view, which is probably why a lot of people cant imageing the HUUUUGEness of space. but its still veyr purdy, looking at nebulae and things even though technically they are falsely coloured after the radio signals are recieved by hubble and things i was gutted when i heard that in physics! its a bit like that example of how small atome are..... if you took the atoms from 1cm cubed o air (i think - could be 1mm) and made them all the size of a grain of sand, they would cover north america 3 foot deep. now that hurt my brain.
