When galaxies collide, stars are born
Cassini is taking spectacular pictures close to home, in our solar system - but let's not forget Hubble. Here's a truly spectacular image, brand spanking new:
"This new NASA Hubble Space Telescope image of the Antennae galaxies is the sharpest yet of this merging pair of galaxies. During the course of the collision, billions of stars will be formed."
Wow. Very much wow.
To think we live in a time when we can see the Universe being reshaped around us, and know what we're seeing.
