One of the most beautiful NASA images I've seen. Looks like a painted background.

Wow; really do believe the many space captures are beautiful, O. My only sadness is we still won't be able to visit any of these places in my lifetime (still have hope that some genius figures out warp drive one day though).

ya gotta keep the hope alive, Artificial Intelligence might help us jump huge leaps ahead in technology. It is considered our last invention after that all inventions will be invented by machine including possibly the warp drive.

It looks like cream spreading out in dark chocolate or coffee

I like pictures taken in space and some of them look soo nice. Usually the prettiest space pictures are the deadliest.
