Hello Friends
I will share each day a different image or photograph taken by NASA of our fascinating universe!
NGC 289: Swirl in the Southern Sky
About 70 million light-years distant, gorgeous spiral galaxy NGC 289 is larger than our own Milky Way. Seen nearly face-on, its bright core and colorful central disk give way to remarkably faint, bluish spiral arms. The extensive arms sweep well over 100 thousand light-years from the galaxy's center. At the lower right in this sharp, telescopic galaxy portrait the main spiral arm seems to encounter a small, fuzzy elliptical companion galaxy interacting with enormous NGC 289. Of course the spiky stars are in the foreground of the scene. They lie within the Milky Way toward the southern constellation Sculptor.
when you see such pictures immediately feel like we are small and insignificant

The scale is unimaginable, lovely photograph.
Images like this should be used to help others put their problems and difficulties into some perspective, nothing we can do or say will ever change the flow of our universe. Fantastic to live in an age where we can view such images and contemplate such thoughts.
