The pictures the hubble takes are incredible. The butterfly nebula pic was making it’s rounds in the news when these images were released. That pic is cool and all but I think that the Carina Nebula is a much cooler pic. Beth mentioned that it looks like a big elemental type thing with big beefy arms coming at you “Like something from Warcraft or one of those games.”
It’s cool looking at the image above, but to get the real feel for this you need to see it in the highest resolution possible.
You can view the 6005 X 7159 resolution jpeg here, it’s 48mb so you’ve been warned. If you would rather view tiff file it’s 98.14mb and the same 6005 X 7159 as the jpeg. Once you get the file downloaded it is really cool how much you can zoom in and see everything.
If you want to view the image in smaller resolutions you can. But if your connection and computer can handle it I highly recommend checking out the highest resolution image. This is one of those things everyone should see.
